Ok here's my little bug bear. I agree with the conservation thing and the shark thing Dive Bunnie, but this is the one that gets my goat.
Why do they do it? Dive outside their ability or limits, such as going down on air to a depth that is soooo risky.
This whole macho "trimix is for poofs" attitude is just nuts. It is no major achievement to survive a depth that brings a pO2 of 1.8 just stupid in my book.
Our rescue services are already under pressure and so much of their work is created by these macho geezers (sorry so many of them are blokes) who think they are invincible.
Anyway, happy diving, hope the depth doesn't catch you out. And don't even get me started on the twin tankers who don't even know how to use them
