Well since the list works again ill try to bring something on:

Have you ever notice some pictures in some " serious " tech magazines ?
It makes me wonder how could those divers live to make it over and over
again ...
Large steel deco tanks , wet suits and 18ltr on their back , " you name
it " regulators ....
and the story goes on and on ....
I also  really find my self amazed when I saw the Diving fatality report
for year 2000.
I was even more disappointed when I went through the reasons that people
got injured
Or killed.  I got   so  impressed  by this unique symptom ,  the “   I
wanna do it my way
because my way works “ approach.. …. And then they die or
they spend the rest of their life on a wheelchair. Or the other type ,
the ones that they want
to re-invent the wheel. Those are the guys that you see every day on
some diving
magazines , showing off  in a 70M dive with twin independent  and 15ltr
steel stage
tanks ,  breathing air.  It makes you want to  find the editor and ……
Why the magazines don’t show those people when they get treated in
decompression chambers ?
It doesn’t make sense why some people  don’t want to learn from others
mistakes ?
Why  don’t this “ expert “ divers get  a copy of those Fatality reports
every year . ? Why most  organizations give so much
Attention  on what you have to do rather on what you  SHOULD NEVER  -
EVER DO.

And the story goes on and on ....
 people   diving wrong gas , wrong equipment , wrong attitude ?
