and if auto correct adds the wrong their lol meh

lol most of my replies have been typed and sent on my phone, i dont spell check that ****.

"Training deaths? The only acceptable number is zero!" i agree but were not quite there yet

Lol my attitude comes with experience Im a IDC staff instructor and have been at the professional level for 8 yrs. Just cause you don't like my opinion or the way I present them doesn't make me any less experienced. Im confident in my skills both as a diver and an instructor and my ability to...

lol ok dude we can where do you wanna meet???

plus the news is now saying it was an OW class lol so i guess until padi tells us something *which will be never* we wont know :(

I don't know dude. The AUC is a weird bunch anyway, maybe they felt bad about thinking it was a rescue class and had to build up their involvement? and he wasn't the 200 foot pony bottle guy, he was "they we where told it was a rescue class" guy.

"I was trained (in ACUC basic open-water, I might add) that the rescuer makes the victim slightly positively buoyant and him/herself slightly negatively buoyant and controls the ascent of both divers. That way, if the victim slips from your grasp, they are going up and you are going down. The...

@floats am sorry I'm being a dick i just don't want to search through it all again, i was doing research into the accident this am and had my report open, Im sorry i don't remember the page but ill look tonight. you also have to remember that dan has other info available other then just that...

i didnt know the shore divers where with a AUC event i just though they where up diving.

"Sorry on this one. No longer rumor. Rescuers from an AUC event were in the water to recover the diver. Those rescuers were not connected to Northwest, but were connected to another dive shop." "See again different rumors but from what i heard apparently all rescuers involved with the incident...

i love how i was lying till i found it on the dan website and if you really have a hard on when i get home i can find it in the report but its there dude

Its from dan????? They do a group study if you look into your dan report, that you read from front to back, it tells you in the first 2 chapters where they get all there statistics from including this one. its prolly higher then 1per 200 000 cause thats just the reports they can compile

i personally would have dropped the weight and swam him up

and if you only have 500 air in your tank and or your out of breath would you hook a stage bottle up or would you orally inflate???? *again stage bottle only a rumor*

"Rescuer's 2 and 3 entered the water specifically for the rescue. I don't believe that gas was a limiting factor. I also am still unclear as to what this has to do with a stage/pony bottle and manual inflation of a BCD." See again different rumors but from what i heard apparently all rescuers...

no one knows what happened ha ha were arguing about how people we don't know performed a rescue we didn't see on a victim we don't know what was wrong with.

"What does the certification agency have to do with anything??? Didn't you say you got booted before for PADI vs the world?" Nothing your right I'm sorry "What does using a stage bottle have to do with inflating a victims BCD. If I was involved with an OOA and had a pony, I would pass it off...

and if there's no air in the tank or the victim is too strong to get to them in time to manually inflate?

Alert Diver | The 2010 DAN Diving Fatalities Workshop fourth paragraph down Statistics from one of the largest training agencies in the world, collected over a 10-year period, show an incident rate of only 0.472 fatalities per 100,000 dives. so rounded up thats 1 death for every 200 000 dives...
