Well, given the size of the sample population, it is likely a useless statistic.


For example, what do you think of this:
"I think everyone should dive the Edmund Fitzgerald.  She sits under 529' of
ice cold water and is extremely safe to dive since it has a 0% mortality rate."

Only one person has dived the wreck, and it was a "successful" dive.

Most wrecks don't get enough divers to collect accurate data as the Fitz
example illustrates.
