Well I think you should look it up.  If you ascend too quickly you
get bent but your posting declares that because a test explosively
decompresses someone from 3m that all divers are going to get bent.
This is does not follow.

In my opinion getting bent is not inevitable and is extremely
embarrassing. Too many diver I meet seem to think there is something
machismo is screwing up and getting bent
