Hi Ed,

I'm having difficulty understanding your message.  How did an instructor 
"FORCE" you to dive to 180 on air?  Did he physically restrain you and pull 
you down to that depth?

I think you need to grow up and start to take some responsibility for your 
own decisions.  Yes IMHO, the instructor was wrong.  Yes IMHO, the dive was 
stupid.  But yes, you choose to make the dive.  So consider yourself lucky 
that you dodged the bullet this time and learn from it.

Take care and dive safe,       Scott

Some weeks it's just not worth the effort to gnaw through the restraints and 
scramble up out of the pit.
