An amazing read my friend, i can almost see myself back in a water. Once we did a deep dive in a sunken ship. as you know too well the deeper you are the faster you consume air. So we had like 10-15 minutes at that depths before we had to resurface with a few safety stops. And you know how time flies there. So you are right. It is dangerous as hell but while it is so serene and calm underwater it often seems so peaceful. And that is when it becomes dangerous. Did you also experience Nitro Poisoning, it happens when you do deeper dives and nitrogen in your blood starts to affect you and people start acting funny and crazy? Like being high? :)

Thanks mate. Yes, I've experienced Nitro Poisoning (nitrogen narcossis). When I did my training deep dive for the advanced certification we were made to do tasks on the surface (like mathematical sums) and were timed, then had to do the same at depth to gauge how badly we'd be affected. Funny thing is I don't really feel the effects so much anymore when I do deep dives. But I remember the sensation like being tipsy :) I also remember being at 40m depth and getting uncontrollable giggles :)
