padi ba to? i wanted kasi iantd i like their real life situations: they will do: drowning diver kicking and punching you, they will enact a diver who will wrestle your reg underwater. panicked diver with knife, dummy diver shooting up to the surface while strapped to your bc.

yung sa padi kasi is always the unconcious diver which is never the case in real life

 

[shugar]

panicked diver WITH KNIFE!?!?!

talk about looking for a real good reason NOT to conduct a rescue hahahahahahaha

either way, i'm no expert on the curriculum, we can ask axua if its possible

,
the diver will be holding a piece of plastic mimicking a knife and will try to slash, stab poke you. this could happen when narced diver is out of air, its happend many times. the curicullum of iantd depending on intructor will prepare you for worst case scenarious.

There are actually a lot of other scenarios that is practiced on the PADI Rescue course aside from the unconscious diver at the surface. Almost similar to IANTD in concept (panic diver, unresponsive diver, unconscious diver, etc..), however how it is portrayed is probably more subtle than the knife-wielding, regulator-grabbing diver.

That is however an interesting training by IANTD.

I guess if you "have it" in you and not panic, the add'l "chaotic" scenario may be a useful skill training to be called upon in time of a real emergency.

I think I kinda understand why IANTD does this drills. They train for caves and wrecks and an OOA situation in an overhead environment would probably drive someone to grab someone's reg or pull out his knife and stab someone or do other "combat" manuevers as a desperate measure for air. But I think in open water, instinct would be to shoot up as the last desperate measure.

this is in fact the reason bro. when in an overhead environ running out of air, basic instinct for survival kicks in a diver will do anything to survive..
