Capt Nigel of Wind Dancer fame made a bad judgement call too.....

I know of the bad judgement calls/improper equipment on the Wave Dancer Belize tragedy, but I don't think I'm familiar with the Wind Dancer misjudgement...

Oops... I'll go fix it...
 
Ok, I don't think the Captain's name was Nigel either. Calling the Wave Dancer tragedy bad judgement is a serious understatement. The events leading up to that tragedy were a series of bad judgements and cheaping out on improper rigging equipment, I think it was, by all management, culminating in many senseless deaths.
 
Is that the multiply deaths of the divers from Richard va?

The Wave Dancer Belize disaster didn't result from poor technical judgement, but from an autocratic captain who had been put under a lot of inappropriate pressure by his management, and staff who (mostly) had no judgement of their own or were too timid to use it.
 
Let me try that again Dandy Don.

I would not even think about trying to come in with conditions like this:

Well, thanks. Your link takes me to a similar one at http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=d_Hdkt1_ivo&desktop_uri=/watch?v=d_H dkt1_ivo and I can open that page, but not the clip... :idk:

I tried it on 3 different browers. How about giving me a link to the clip itself...??

Is this it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_Hdkt1_ivo
