Thar has been around about 30 years
Note the equipment == SCUBA Pro Stab jacket, SPG console, three hoses -- SPG, Stab jacket & regulator, the Darrel Allan light, the huge knife, the square weights , the orange weight belt (Sportsways colors) etc etc
Possibly even longer than 30 years maybe 40 years ago when it was first published
About the same time frame as my avatar
Keep looking for these tid bits of dive history-- always interesting and certainly educational for the late model tube suckling bubble blowers who think that diving began with they graced the sport with their presence..
I certainly enjoyed it -- lots of memories

Allow me to explain. The guy who made fun of my post assumed that I had not seen the picture.
But let's assume that I had not seen it prior to the post because I was a new diver. Is it funny? Maybe to some people.

Reza,
There are many, many cartoon drawings such as this one which were published in numerous diving magazine and books in the distant and recent past.
They all in the artist unique manner apparently predict the future of recreational diving. which has in many eyes has slipped from sublime to the ridiculous...and indeed it has .
Congratulations on your superb photography ! Outstanding is the only word to describe your efforts !
Keep up the good work.
