There are only two possible explanations for all the inspiration deaths.
1) The unit is unsafe
2) Inspiration divers are as a group less capable divers than other
divers.
Possibly a combination of 1 and 2 is possible.
I read through your article where you "rebut" Trey's comments. I am
unconvinced. However, even if I were convinced, it still does not
explain why people keep dying while wearing this device.
Oh, I forgot, that too is untrue. The unit is perfectly safe, no one
is dying, and you guys are all fantastic divers.
There is a tendency to defend a product one has been foolish enough to
buy into, no matter how bad the product is. It's amazing how far
inspiration divers have taken this (those that still live). I just
wonder what the last thing was that went through the minds of those
that have died. "Oh Shit, I guess Trey was right after all...." Nah.
They probably never even saw it coming.
