My bust. I only put my regulator in front of him if his is out. I would not take a regulator out of someone's mouth even if he was not breathing.Atticus:I respectfully disagree - removing a reg from an unconscious divers mouth and replacing it with another is likely to a) allow water into the divers mouth where the original reg may have prevented it, and b) possibly force that water into the divers lungs if/when the purge is pressed. This is particularly true if the diver is unconscious but breathing (exhaust bubbles).
Good catch.
