Saw a show on cable last night about some ozzies deep diving on on an old 
wreck using surface supplied air. Apparently they were hanging on their 
hoses for decompression with no attachment to an assent line. A current 
came along and they swung up from their stop depth like a couple of 
pendulums. The dive boat was a beauty, complete with decom chamber, so 
they were hustled on board and shoved into the chamber. They survived. 
This seems like kind of a obvious mistake, or does this go on all the 
time with commercial divers?
