I haven't heard exactly what caused the death, but the diver was doing a
dive at Waterman Point which is a currenty wall dive that bottoms out at
about 180+. The currents on this dive can do some nasty things to you if
you time the tides wrong. If the diver had an equipment problem I can see
how something like this can happen especially if he panicked. I heard
rumors that the diver was fairly new to the sport, but I don't know if that
is true.
