while out in sw florida diving today, we heard over the radio for a distress diver. Its seems he did a 100ft dive, came up threw a new tank on and within 15 minutes was back in the water, back down to 100ft, burned his air out then came right to the top. They called for a med flight and he was taken to Lee memorial in Ft Myers. With the radio going in and out, it was hard to hear the details, so mine might be sketchy. Anyone hear anything??
 
Sounds like someone was just plain stupid.
 
or sounds like some real good diving
 
No dive is good if you don't survive it.
 
crpntr133:
Sounds like someone was just plain stupid.

I disagree.


There's nothing plain about that stupidity. Being that stupid takes some talent!
 
Stupid doesn't take talent. As my evidence I cite scubaboard.com
 
No excuse for stupidity!!!!!!!!

It's not how many dives you make. It's the quality of the dives and how many you surface from- healthy!
 
No kidding I mean do people think that when there Instuctor in OW was lying about the bends. I mean that just doesn't make sense.

You assume he was certified.
