Welcome to c/WouldYouRather, where we present you with the toughest, most ridiculous choices you never knew you had to make! Would you rather have a third arm that's only useful for picking your nose, or be able to talk to animals but only if they're wearing hats? Yeah, it's that kind of vibe. Come for the absurdity, stay because you've clearly got nothing better to do with your life.

Wait, do you get paid immediately? Or do you get paid when your ocean tour concludes on the 1825th day?
Because it would be tedious as fuck to have to still work every day during that time while enduring daily ocean trauma (and potentially have an unrelated accident and subsequently invalidate all my effort up to that point).
Also, like some other people mentioned: is it a random part of the ocean in a survivable area? I imagine this would strictly mean the surface of the ocean wherever you end up. Certain depths would be instant death and I don’t know how the physics work with teleporting from deep ocean back to the surface, but I assume it’s the perfect recipe for spontaneously contracting the bends
Putting aside the pressure crushing bit for a moment, the bends wouldn't really be a problem. Freedivers can go pretty deep for several minutes and ascend without issue, because they aren't breathing in and out and doing all the gas exchange at depth that eventually pushes more nitrogen into your blood.
minus up to 50 skip days. could be as few as 1775 days.
fewer if doing multiple a day... it didn't strictly exclude that possibility, especially since it said you get to choose the time of day... could try cheesing it, getting it done sooner...
Given the part about the suit if freezing, it seems so.
