I've had recurring nightmares since I was a child that my car goes into water and sinks, and I can't get out.jerkbox said:so what's your biggest fear? a plane in 10 feet of water?
Like when it snows and the sun is shinning?PBR said:ive been on plane wrecks and boats underwater before irl...they cause me to HV. ive heard the reason why, is that when you see something in an unatural element it causes an involuntary reaction...i get them.

LOL, sandbagger! I got my c-card when I was twelve. The guy was a former navy diver and ran an underwater salvage business. He ran it like a military school and was proud that nobody he had certified had ever been killed or seriously injured in a dive accident.heatherrae said:SCUBA is the most wonderful and relaxing experience.

The only saving grace is that you could flip over on your back and as long as you were making progress it counted, you didn't have to breastroke the whole way.jerkbox said:god that would suck....
I didn't get certified in one of those one day courses. I was just telling him that he could do so. That way you can dive the same day. =-) Jiffy skippy.javaguru said:LOL, sandbagger!

We had eight four hour blocks of classroom instruction and eight four hour blocks of pool and open water work followed by examinations.
-Pass written tests on safety, dive table, and gas laws.
-Pass a physical test by swimming 50m underwater on one breath and swim for one hour without stopping/treading water.
-Closed water test on buddy breathing and other safety protocols
-Open water test consisting of the entire dive from preparing equipment, dive calculations, underwater navigation, to post dive maintenance/recovery.
