Pour water over your head and get drunk.

Umm... yeah...

"Nitrogen narcosis, commonly referred to as "rapture of the deep," typically becomes noticeable at 100 ft underwater and is incapacitating at 300 ft, causing stupor, blindness, unconsciousness, and even death. Nitrogen narcosis is also called "the martini effect" because divers experience an effect comparable to that from one martini on an empty stomach for every 50 ft of depth beyond the initial 100 ft."

Getting Narced etapi72 September 9 2005, 18:49:46 UTC
Interesting I was drunk when I wrote this of course I am impressed that you found the martini effect info though the depths that they list here are only approximations I know people who have been narced in only 45-50 feet of water. When I was narced it was in a cave at about 120 feet and it was just a slight buzz it was nice because there was no hang over it was gone as soon as I went up a few feet. This has now led me to my conclusion that if I go deeper than 200 I should definitely use trimix to minimize the effect at the greater depth.
