I am not a cave diver and I am not dodging the question. In point of fact if you go back and read my post which started this thread I state as much but here is my question for you...can you really listen to him talk about inflating his bouyancy compensator inside an overhead environment before...

He’s a MMA guy and honestly as long as I’ve followed his career this cave diving interview is the first time I’ve ever heard of him even being a diver so unclear if it’s truly the case of a cave diver or a guy that was cave diving .

So your view is you can only recognize what may be hubris, stupidity, or all of the above if you are a cave diver or have been in a silt out? That’s the qualification for questioning this whole video or being eligible to question its veracity?

listening to this a second time... is strikes me that his whole story to Rogan is over dramatized... a specific example of which is at 11:40 where he talks about filling up his BC thus pushing him into the roof and then breathing out of is BC...how was that supposed to extend his time by moving...

His body may have made it out, but his brain certainly did not lol!

Guys...Im an MMA fan, and I Thai box from time to time...but this...I find myself wanting to mail Joe Rogan and tell him what a fraud dude is....crazy thing is, is dude is a decent fighter, more than decent but as a cave diver, which I am not....obvious fraud!!!

Actually for states that dont require a unanimous verdict its typically a "majority", what that means in terms of how many jurors will vary.....

Price?

great film, loved the soundtrack

Is it normal to do "discover scuba" or try scuba in open water? 7 or 8 years ago when I started diving my discover scuba was done in a pool, years later when I had my 3 young sons go through a discover scuba theirs was also done in a pool...

Most cert courses have or request a doc's review for a list of things they may list in their disclosure, like you I have T2 diabetes and so when I did my SCCR course TDI flagged in in the student profile card that it required a doctors review/sign-off...as long as you have a personal physician...

Manni Im not arguing at all, its simply a discussion...what Im really getting at is the card is a generic ccr card, if you go to buy another CCR and you have a Generic CCR card, are they going to refuse to sell it to you? I don't know the answer to that other than to say I did checkout dives...

No, like I said the course completion course I took from TDI was a Generic CCR, thats what is on the course completion reports, etc. It seems they leave it to the dive shop your buying your rebreather from to ensure any customizations are taught for a given unit. I can see why, the certs are...

Maybe Hollis doing something different, I know they required a class to even take delivery, all my other certs are through TDI/SDI and even a buddy of mine who dives a Prism which is a true CCR did the same course I did with the only modifications being the breakout sessions to build and tear...

I took the TDI CCR Generic course so to give an idea of what I experienced it was really broken out into 4 parts: 1. 11 modules, with 11 exams and then a final. This information is not specific to any rebreather so you cover pure oxygen rebreathers, closed circuit rebreathers and semi closed...

The training was the TDI CCR, I'm talking general concepts... Let's not confuse the two as if I was trained specific to the Explorer. That's the point of reference I'm coming from, Hollis doesn't have a course so that's a moot discussion I think. Mine are simply observations and it's my...

I dig what you're putting down! and I get your point about reserving your BO if you're at 200ft, I just thought the advertising for the unit we have been discussing was a little gratuitous...and I also say that having gone through the TDI course and signed 20 million liability disclaimers...

Sure, I think what I find troubling is this language in their data sheet: "flood tolerant: even total flooding is recoverable during a dive." Keep in mind also my perspective is one of a second year law student lol so that statement is very dangerous in legal terms as well as plain advert...

My point exactly I know the Hollis explorer has a valve that allows water to leave the loop, and there is a process during the CCR course to shake the water down and out of the loop, but the data sheet makes it look like a full loop flood is recoverable which I view as loop, and can....why would...

How is it possible that that rebreather is "flood recoverable during a dive"? once the scrubber has been exposed to water, game over.... or did I miss something in chemistry class lol
