Cool video but you couldn't pay me enough to dive that 1st cave you took video in (guide or no guide). I won't enter anything that I can't see an exit and fast path to the surface but that's just me. Perhaps I'm just getting too old for such things and think too much about what could go wrong. You couldn't pay me enough to jump out of a perfectly functional airplane either. That is definately not a place for newer divers. When looking at video such as that one, everyone needs to remember that DM's are "guides" and that is it. There is a reason you sign a Dive form/contract that contains a General Release before any operation will take you diving. Now, the signing of a General Release in the U.S. under such circumstances is pretty much worthless for the company asking you to sign it as they wont' hold up in court but in Mexico with a different legal system signing that means everything. Most people would not know that Mexico and Mexican banks generally do not require businesses to carry liability insurance of any kind. I was shocked when a 30+year owner of a dive op told me he never carried any insurance of any kind. If something happens there will be no deep pocket insurance company to take care of you or your family. DAN insurance will pay to treat you and fly you back (if you make it to the surface).

Both Edgar and Jorge are great at finding things but my wife and I enjoy the freedom Tres Pelicanos allows so we search for our own finds. As such, we are usually a ways away from Edgar or Jorge and usually are not willing to fin our way over to see a find (unless it is a Seahorse which my wife would burn an entire tank finning her way up-current to take so many pics of the poor animal would get a sunburn from the repeated camera flashes). As I've said in a prior post, 3P's boats are usually filled with 1/3 new/newer divers, 1/3 experienced divers, and 1/3 highly advanced divers. If you are new or newer divers on a boat of 10 with 3P's, you'll basically have Edgar or Jorge to yourself as a private DM as the other 6 or 7 divers are going to spread out and dive their own dives while staying in safe proximity to the group.
