I think Wes took that pictures of Diepolder(2 or 3?) and did the lighting himself. It was just a long exposure and he swam around with that portable sun to expose different areas of the cave. All the divers you see in that picture are Wes I believe.
All that being said, I think we can get by with just a few divers in the water. Even doable on the weekend if we get an early morning start. With external strobes, you could get 2 or 3 flashes, should be focused on some of the more intersting features(like vents and the big boulder and the ledges) within a 30 second shutter speed. Then have a diver or two painting the walls with an HID for fill.
Oh, and I'm in and first in line for a print!
I've got a mini tripod I can donate and rig up with weights for this shindig!
Wouldn't that be easier doing multiple exposures on the same original, moving the light around? one long exposure would show him moving from place to place, wouldn't it?
