What would you do if you reached your agreed upon turnaround pressure and your buddy or the DM pushed on with the dive (rather than turning around)?
Proceed onward. If there's one thing I learned in school, it's that authority figures are not to be questioned.
What would you do if the DM leading your boat dive went into a cave or other overhead environment?
Tap him on the shoulder and show him my slate that says: "Silt-out Competition!!!" Then proceed to scrape my fins all over the floor.
What would you do if your buddy inexplicably descended deeper (100+ fsw) than the two of you had discussed during pre-dive planning?
Trick question. At it's deepest point, the ocean is 86ft.
What would you do if your buddy wanted to go diving but you weren't comfortable with the dive conditions (high surf, current, low vis, rough seas, etc.)?
Have a few drinks, try to get my courage up. Also, hope that he would say something motivational like: "quit bein' a little bitch", or "you might get injured during the dive, but if you thumb the dive, I'm definitely gonna **** you up!"
What would you do if your buddy gave you "the thumb" on the dive but everything seemed like it was OK?
Give him "the finger" and keep diving.
