WRONG ANSWER! 

This was needless as per the usual. Since when is scooter diving in a cave 
across jumps and tight tunnels part of intro cave diving! 

I didn't think so. This is a case of doing a dive beyond the training and 
level. 
Somebody has to hammer this crap or it will just keep happening.

P.S. Same could be said about that 1996 Everest disaster, some of those 
people had no business on that mountain.
