All I see is the body of a diver on the bottom. Where did you get the info that this was a deep air dive accident?

No that fella went way deep, there are many down there, Hatul that was my observation with single tank and the amount of weight on belt, also they do deep air bounce there everyday. I'm just adding the this to the deep air for a review of what can happen when not experienced and go to deep on air, you must be careful as rapture of the deep is waiting for you and you must ascend slowly Immediately when it hits.
"There" is which Blue Hole exactly?

Quite a few of the fatalities were instructors/DMs....many of the DCI incidents also. Little technical knowledge, plus lots of over-confidence is a bad combo. "Doing the arch" at 60m being some sort of 'status symbol'. Without proper planning and preparation it catches divers out in a big way. Many think that the arch is some achievable by 'bounce dive' buts its a longer swim-through than most anticipate. They rack up more deco than they have gas to complete and/or run out of air on the way. That is, of course, if they don't just spiral down to the bottom in a narcosis induced death haze....

That's too heavy. At the end he's thrashing about but not breathing. RIP diver.
