My wife and I were having a discussion, and we are curious...
If someone was on a 40-60 ft recreation dive, and dropped their weight belt and did an Emergency Ascent, BC inflated - for ANY reason, say, panic, choking - anyhting - and missed their 3 minute Safety Stop at 15 ft - but kept BREATHING on the way up - what would most likey happen? DCS? Embolism? But not a lung overexpansion injury....right?
How serious is it to miss that Safety Stop on recreational dives from 40-60 ft?
I know no one can say with certainty what WOULD happen, but we are just curious HOW bad it would be?
OK you experienced divers, jump in here at any time?
