Not quite sure where this should go, but just bought and finished Shadow Divers yesterday. Incredibly entertaining, and at the end I was thinking "what a short book!" until I looked up and noticed it was 4:30am. Oops.
This was literally the first time I've bought and read a book for pleasure in maybe 5 years or so, and I'm frankly surprised how it grabbed me and wouldn't let go.
So these dives happened over 10 years ago, but some of their techniques sound insane to me. The "no buddy is better than a good buddy" attitude, the "navigate-by-memory" progressive penetration mindset. Is any of this still the norm?
Anyways, I'm searching out the old Nova documentary now and looking forward to the Ridley Scott movie. Maybe my next read should be Guy Gentile's rebuttal of the entire account...
