Subject: Re: More new tech divers die,,,,this time in Singapor
If the divers drowned during this accident, then the question is where
in depth.  I have heard of people drowning in 10 feet of water and 130
ft of water.  The end result is a drown person.

What is not clear to me is if the team were using recreational gear or
tech gear and what type of dive (recreational or technical)they were
performing. Just because someone is signed up for a course does not mean
that intellectual and experiential interest predisposes someone to a
mishap.  Many factors need to be taken into consideration such as dive
site conditions, divers phyical and mental conditions with dive goals
and dive objectives.

It would be best to have more information than "new tech divers die" to
assess the actual causes in this case.
