The worst bend I've seen on my computer was 99+ minutes remaining (i.e. the
maximum of the display) and the computer got bent with 5 minutes of the
24m/80 ft stop remaining.  Of course my computer was being used as a bottom
timer on this dive as my sphincter muscles are not so strong as to be able to
be able to work out the correct deco from what the air computer was telling
me on this particular dive!
