Scuba diver
Solubility and pressure are very relevant to scuba divers, who are susceptible to "the bends." As divers swim deeper, the pressure increases the amount of nitrogen dissolved in their blood. Unless they ascend slowly, the nitrogen can diffuse out of their blood too quickly, causing pain and even death.
