7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle compartment comprises:

a door to actuate between a first position and a second position; and

the snorkel to extract air from the interior volume of the vehicle compartment responsive to the door actuating from the first position to the second position.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the snorkel comprises:

an egress air channel including:

a first portion in fluid communication with a second portion; and

the second portion curved and in fluid communication with a straight egress portion.

9. The apparatus of claim 1 , comprising:

the snorkel including a one-way pressure valve to allow unidirectional fluid flow from the vehicle compartment to the external environment.

10. The apparatus of claim 1 , comprising:

the vehicle compartment including an interior wall; and

the snorkel including a first end fluidly coupled with the interior wall of the vehicle compartment and in fluid communication with the interior volume of the vehicle compartment;

wherein the snorkel is flush with the interior wall of the vehicle compartment.

11. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the snorkel has a diameter greater than or equal to about 80 millimeters and less than or equal to about 90 millimeters.

12. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the vehicle compartment is configured to enclose the interior volume from exposure to a fluid.

13. A vehicle, comprising:

a vehicle compartment defining an interior volume of the vehicle, the vehicle compartment to enclose the interior volume from an external environment, and the interior volume of the vehicle at least partially disposed beneath a floor of a truck bed of the vehicle;

a snorkel fluidly coupled with the vehicle compartment, the snorkel in fluid communication with the interior volume of the vehicle compartment and with the external environment;

the snorkel integrated into a first segment of the truck bed of the vehicle such that the snorkel extends beneath the floor of the truck bed to a side wall space of the truck bed; and

the snorkel in fluid communication with the side wall space of the truck bed.

14. The vehicle of claim 13 , wherein the vehicle compartment comprises the snorkel, the snorkel comprises:

a first end in fluid communication with the interior volume of the vehicle compartment; and

a second end in fluid communication with the external environment.

15. The vehicle of claim 13 , comprising:

the vehicle compartment including an interior wall;

the snorkel including a first end and a second end;

the first end fluidly coupled with the interior wall of the vehicle compartment and in fluid communication with the interior volume of the vehicle compartment, the interior volume of the vehicle compartment having a first pressure; and

the second end exposed to the external environment, the external environment having a second pressure less than the first pressure.

16. The vehicle of claim 13 , wherein the vehicle compartment comprises:

a door to actuate between a first position and a second position; and

the snorkel to extract air from the interior volume of the vehicle compartment responsive to the door actuating from the first position to the second position.

17. A method, comprising:

providing a vehicle compartment defining an interior volume of a vehicle;

enclosing the interior volume of the vehicle compartment from an external environment, the interior volume of the vehicle at least partially disposed beneath a floor of a truck bed of the vehicle;

coupling a snorkel with the vehicle compartment, the snorkel in fluid communication with the interior volume of the vehicle compartment and with the external environment; and

integrating the snorkel into a first segment of the truck bed of the vehicle such that the snorkel extends beneath the floor of the truck bed to a side wall space of the truck bed, and the snorkel in fluid communication with the side wall space of the truck bed.

18. The method of claim 17 , comprising:

extracting air from the interior volume of the vehicle compartment via the snorkel.
