Is a fact that every diver fallow the norms of safety, we as divers always concern on “safety first” but how safe you really are? Ironic to say that last week I read on the news that a doctor passed away while diving in Cozumel she was doing a research on illnesses related to diving. The Mexican authorities rule the cause of death as drowning. Divers that accompanied the doctor on her research mentioned that she was ok before diving that nothing seems wrong when the pop up to the surface they fund her floating unconscious they rapidly brought her to the boat when she become vomiting. They rush her to the hospital but unfortunately she didn’t make it to the chamber. Her colleges that where part of the research, mentioned to the authorities that she was beginning to sink due the BC were not holding her 150kilos weight. At this point we will never know what actually happen to her. Is unfortunately that this accidents remained us that safety is not just to make sure your equipment is in good condition it is plenty more to be aware regarding your safety wile you diving such as your health and the environment. It is important to be concern with everything your life depends on it.
