What was your 'planned' depth for the dive? My OW dives were all at 20-25ft. Are you PADI certified? If so, you probably know that you shouldn't be below 60' until you do a Deep Dive Adventure or Specialty class.
I'm surprise that an instructor or DM didn't get your LP hose connected back up. I could see how not being able to slow your decent would be frightening. Good job on maintaining your cool. Congrats on the accomplishment.
The way I read his posting that the instructor took him to 70 feet as part of his OW certification dives. Did I misinterpret his posting?
