Scuba accidents - statistics?

[mlrtime99]

Hey ppl, I'm new to diving and I decided to choose it as a topic for a speech class speech. Besides showing and explaining all the gear, I"m going to need some diving facts and statistics. So if any of you know any good sites I'd appreciate it. Im' also interested in any accident statistics since those are good attention grabbers... thankx guys. And if anyone is in the Alabama, FL GA region get in touch

Prost, skoal, salud & cheers, mlrtime99,

Suggest you secure a copy of "DAN Dive Accident & Fatality Report (2001)." It can be obtained at https://www.diversalertnetwork.org/Members/ScriptContent/Index.cfm. Go to "Browse Products," then "Books" & then scroll down.

Best of luck with your project.

Hi mlrtime99,

To the best of my knowledge, products listed at https://www.diversalertnetwork.org/Members/ScriptContent/Index.cfm may be purchased by non-members. Try the steps I outlined above--just skip over the member section above the products section.

Let me know how it works.

Hi mlrtime99 and welcome to the greatest boards on the net !

Please please please don't consider the following as an offend, it is just an advise since u said that you are new at those boards (I am new also

Please don't cross post your messages to the various topics of the board ! Posting it into one topic (for example only here or only on the general discussions) is more than enough since everybody read almost all the boards! It is mucg easier to follow a thread in just one topic than follow it in more than one !!

Thanks nad welcome
