Inside Michael Jackson's $100,000 oxygen rejuvenation chamber that he used to ...

This is the oxygen chamber Michael Jackson famously used to combat the ravages of time - uncovered by DailyMailTV gathering dust in the back of a warehouse.

The King of Pop posed for a now-legendary photo showing him lay inside the $100,000 glass chamber in 1986.

He was quoted at the time as saying: 'I'll live to be at least 150.'

Now, just days after the 10th anniversary of Jackson's death, DailyMailTV found the blue machine hidden away in a shipping container at a warehouse in southern California.

The Sechrist 2500B hyperbaric oxygen chamber (HBO) has ended up at a company called Hyperbaric Modular Systems, which specializes in the alternative treatment.

This is Michael Jackson's hyperbaric oxygen chamber he used 30 years ago, which DailyMailTV uncovered hidden away in a shipping container at a warehouse in southern California

Can a hyperbaric oxygen chamber help you live forever?  

A hyperbaric oxygen machine works by supplying the body with three times more oxygen and saturating the body with it. 

According to Dr. Ian K Smith, there are multiple benefits of the machine. 

'People were using hyperbaric chambers to rejuvenate their skin. It increases the amount of blood flow. The belief is it can help tissue.'  

That hypoxic tissue gets oxygen and promotes the healing process while fighting bacteria. 

The machine is typically used for divers to treat decompression sickness and burn victims by administering oxygen to the wounds at pressure to speed up healing. 

Staying in the chamber for longer than one to two hours could cause oxygen toxicity in the body, resulting in death.  

Our reporter was able to discover exactly what the Heal the World singer experienced when he used the equipment 33 years ago.

DailyMailTV also established the history of the chamber and how he ended up in Jackson's hands.

In 1984, the singer suffered second and third degree burns to his face and scalp after his hair caught fire on the set of a Pepsi commercial.

After the accident, he was treated at the Brotman Memorial Hospital in Culver City, California.

The following year Jackson settled out of court with Pepsi over his injuries and was given $1.5million.

The star then donated all the money to establish the Michael Jackson Burn Center for Children at the hospital.

It was with this money that the hospital bought the $100,000 oxygen chamber to treat burn victims.

HBO treatment improves the healing time of burns by administering oxygen to the wounds at pressure.

When the unit arrived at the new burns center Jackson visited the hospital and was pictured lying horizontal in the chamber with his eyes closed.

The equipment had never before been seen by the general public and when The National Enquirer ran the photos months later, they caused a sensation.

Jackson was at the height of his fame when the magazine claimed the regimen was part of a wacky plan to keep himself alive forever.

The National Enquirer quoted the singer as saying: 'I've taken several long naps in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber and when I awoke I felt like a new person - I've never felt better.

'I definitely want one for my home so I can sleep in it at night. I plan to get one immediately. I want to live to see world peace, a world without hunger, a world where children and all mankind know no suffering. 

'I believe if I treat my body properly I'll live to be at least 150.'

It was later revealed that Jackson himself had leaked the pictures as a publicity stunt to promote his film Captain Eo.

Michael Levine, a prominent Hollywood publicist, confirmed that he helped Jackson and his manager Frank DiLeo plant the story in the press.

Despite the planted story, Jackson did in fact request his very own hyperbaric oxygen chamber in 1994.

HBO treatment was used for years to treat divers with decompression sickness, but doctors later discovered other applications.

While in the chamber the patient breathes three times more oxygen than breathing air and the entire body is also fully immersed in oxygen.

The year before this machine was built in 1985, Jackson suffered second and third degree burns to his face and scalp after his hair caught fire on the set of a Pepsi commercial, prompting the hospital, which he donated to, to buy this $100,000 oxygen chamber to treat burn victims
