Has anyone have any information on the life flight rescue at Gilboa quarry this Saturday? I was there when life flight came in and appeared to take away a woman diver. She was sitting upright at the time.
 
EMS was called for a female Open Water dive student who experienced chest pains and difficulty breathing after ascending from a short dive on the training platform (~20'). Diver was put on O2, but symptoms didn't improve. Both ambulance and helicopter were dispatched and arrived within minutes of each other. Appears to have been an anxiety attack. The woman is fine.
 
That is good to hear for once (that she is fine of course is what I mean)
 
Had me worried guys!! Glad for everyone that it wasn't more serious.
