Here are a few lessons I learned from watching Thrunderball, made in 1965.
1. The best way to meet foxy chicks when snorkeling is to wait until they get their foot caught in the coral, and then rescue them.
2. The best pickup line once you have rescued a hot babe is, "You swim like a man".
3. The best way to approach a shark encounter is to shoot one shark, to keep the others distracted.
4. The best way to get around when snorkeling is to hitch a ride on a trutle.
5. The best way to prevent a shark from harassing you when diving is to shoot it with your spear gun.
6. Good guys wear white tanks and red exposure suits. Bad guys wear black tanks and black expsosure suits. When one encounters someone in a black wetsuit with black tanks, shoot them with a spear gun.
7. BCD's and weights are not needed when diving off a helicopter, and wearing a white tank.
8. Making love underwater is entirely possible, but creates a LOT of bubbles, and scares the fish.
9. Always carry a huge knife on the leg, and a speargun in the event any divers wearing black wetsuits with black tanks are encountered. See #6.
10. Pen sized devices that replace the tank and regulator are highly desirable, and will save your life on numerious occasions.
11. If you have your mask ripped off you face by a bad guy, grab another mask off the dead guy that is found nearest to your location.
