Hi again folks,
So I am reading my PADI OW manual and it says in several places, rather ominously, not to ascend faster than 60ft/minute. And that slower is better.
However it is light on details about what happens if you go faster. Supposing you continued to breathe normally, what can happen if one, say, ascends uncontrollaby because one was juggling one's weight belt and dropped it?
And, in more pragmatic terms, what will *likely* happen to a diver in 60 ft or less of water and well within no-stop limits if he were to make an uncontrolled ascent?
