Who has made the most money from Scuba?

[mheaster]

I would guess Jarrod Jablonski CEO of Halcyon, founder of GUE and owner of Extreme Exposure?

 

[cudachaser]

Definately not me!

Those folks who produce the tiny little spare air cylinders and sell them for almost as much as a proper pony.......

When you factor in sevice they may be actually more expensive than a proper pony over the long run.

...tonka97 "Two well known hoax-sters and an incompetent, fraudulent author???? A movie based on mis-information???"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tonka97,

You have:
No recognized diving credentials or acheivements
4 years of diving
Fresh water quarry & river running

Therefore you certainly must be an expert in all things diving and especially deep wreck penitration dives.

Did you use mixed gas on the quarry and river dives?

Inquiring minds want to know--enlighen us mere mortals?

sdm

Sam Miller:

You have:
A deficit of spelling and grammatical acumen.
An inability to recognize diving credentials.
An incompetency in 'judging' a diver by their posted profiles.
An obvious susceptibility to hoaxes and frauds.

The Da Vinci Code was a massive hoax. I didn't need to be the Pope to recognize the fiction.

The two hoax-sters and hired fraudulent author have been EXPOSED in illuminating and fully referenced detail.

Suggest you read, consider, and then post.

Nah,
While he is an extremely knowledgeable and accomplished diver, I don't think EE is making money, GUE is a not for profit org (is it still?..not that he can not pay himself a large salary, but that usually is frowned upon by the grantors aka the state of FL for resaerch) and Halcyon is doing fairly, not great.

Don't get me wrong, JJ is not hurting, but not making buckets of money either.

That guy (his name is here in the list) that found the spanish gallion off of key west is making money, lots of it.

Assuming of course you choose to believe Gary Gentile. Based upon your review of his book on Amazon.com, you clearly bought it hook, line and sinker. More than likely, both sides are telling a bit of the truth. To side so completely with one side to the point of calling the other liars and cheats seems to me a bit extreme, unless of course you were on any of those U-boat dives. I'd imagine you weren't, but that's just a guess.


From Amazon.com:
Reviewer:T. Cavender "chord97" (South Charleston, WV USA) - See all my reviews
If you read the Shadow Divers (I did about 4 times), then you are in for a big surprise! The multiple frauds perpetrated by Chatterton, Kohler, and Kurson are exposed in a convincing and authoritative manner. I could not put Gentile's book down; a total page turner.

Shadow Divers Exposed not only exposes the fraud, but also has an amazing amount of wreck diving information and updates.

This is a must-read for interested readers/divers, and anyone who appreciates the exposure of a massive literary hoax.

Whiff ... I think you just went right over his head. But hey, thanks for giving it a try.
