heart attack
As much as we can believe a news story, yes - the young man incurred cardiac arrest, but that really means nothing. 100% of people buried each year have incurred cardiac arrest, for whatever reasons.

Actually that is not true. There is a difference medically in sudden cardiac arrest and other deaths like a heart attack or say someone who bleeds out. I get the point you are trying to make but not all deaths are cardiac arrest as the hear can slowly cease to beat.

Possible "Delta P Entrapment Hazzard" as precipitating cause (?)

Dangers of commercial diving
