Subject: Re: stressful tasks for divers
Back a few years ago when I was first certified, 1977, there was a harassment
night. 

On this night you got to swim around the pool buddy breathing (no long hoses,
octopuses, spare airs, or ponies, and horse collar BC's) with a painted out
mask. During this time you both had your air turned off repeatedly, mask
flooded, 2nd stage pulled away, nets thrown over you, and some ass hole with a
rod and reel, 25 lb test line and 16 oz weight trying to snag you (no hooks at
least). It certainly gave you a taste of what North East diving could be like
in a controlled pool. By the way there were 2-3 other divers with you and your
buddy at all times during those 15 minutes.

But if you did it now, you would most likely next see some of you students in
court.
