Thanks John and bleeb for your posts explaining CESA a little more clearly.
CESA's or ESA's have been performed from depths WELL below recreational depths (below 130'), with the diver surfacing unharmed. It is important to understand that this carries many risks, but it is equally important to know that it can be done. The knowledge that a healthy diver can reach the surface and survive even from deeper recreational depths should be "owned" by every diver.
Early training emhasized this more than current training I think (I know this varies with the instructor).
Highest marks for teaching your students a bit more than the standard course calls for.
Best wishes.
