Why is no one asking him if he is in distress.

Well I think this is obvious. He is the only PADI trained diver there no one else knows the signs.:wink:

I got certified through SSI and was trained to recognize the signs...
 
With all the black it's hard to tell, it's a thumbs up but to surface or what a great clip I don't know, he didn't seem in a hurry to leave. With that little piece of film I didn't see panic, and I have seen it before.

You have to look starting at 5 minutes and 6 seconds into the video.

It happens when he surfaces.

Had to go back and look at it a second time, but, yeah, I see it. Very quick and subtle, but very obvious when you do see it.

Sir, you also look to be in distress.
 
Definite panic! (I mean, clearly, he didn't even close his DSV)
