Hey man brilliant that's admirable you gotta do what you can do in as many circumstances
as you can do them, but if I find a diver at depth, reg out unconscious and unresponsive it's
my welfare I'm addressing and if we get to the surface and I have any energy left to perform
CPR or anything else I'll also be ready for the first person that comes across that arcs up and
says why didn't you perform cpr longer more than likely I'll tie a line around the dead guys toe

In my personal water related water rescue experiences (ocean lifeguard and white water guide) I have performed CPR 3 times with 2 of those having positive outcomes. A 6 year old girl trapped in an Eddy under a waterfall and an ocean rescue of a middle aged man that lived because of efforts made and CPR performed. So it's not true that they are most likely dead and going to stay that way
