A tad OTT, as was the rest of madmole's first post but IMHO it needed to be said.madmole once bubbled...
Definately a duff diver. NO computer on the market would have allowed these dives, . . . !!!!!!!
What still concerns me is the obvious denial exhibited by Peter and his buddy. OK once underwater the brain appears to stop working properly but need this continue post-dive I wonder?
In England we have invented an extremely powerful item of investigative equipment, it is known as the retrospectoscope, and it never fails, particularly if used by a third party.
As I posted above, I tend to feel that denial must be an ever present feature of (cerebral) DCI and this would almost certainly explain Peter's apparently reckless behaviour.
Indeed PFOs are quite common, and in my opinion from bitter experience far too often overlooked as a cause of subclinical cerebral DCI.
