Ok, I've been trying to figure out who this guy is, and I haven't been able to come up with anything. I was too late to this thread to catch his name before it was edited out.
I guess it's a good thing that perhaps I haven't encountered him yet.

Hey Catherine,
You forgot the most important part! Public mockery!
The best lessons in life are either painful, humiliating or expensive...
If I were a woman, and had been first body-slammed underwater then grabbed and shaken in front of a group of people,
First, like Walter said, they lose their mask,
Second, like Mama said, they lose their regulator, and
Third, you pull their bathing trunks down around their ankles while they're flailing around trying to recover their reg!
Paybacks a bit*h...

Sasquatch:
I repeat: Eh?
It's just that it sounded like a great "in the moment" shot. Were his eyes actually bulging out to his mask glass?:gulp18:

My 2 cents on this apparently long running thread.
This guy had no right to do what he did. It is a free country (last time I checked) and you are perfectly allowed to take the pictures, and offer to send them to people. If he wants people to pay him for his work, he'd better have a mechanism for that happening that makes people want to pay him for his work.
As someone who takes photos/videos while diving I would be very annoyed if someone did this to me, again, if they want to sell me/anyone else the video/photos they take, they'd better have a way to show that they are worth paying for.
