    There are just so many things you would have to ignore for this to happen, yet there are people who will ignore all the things you're supposed to do with systems checks with rebreathers.

    It is like forgetting to put your parachute pack on and jumping out of the airplane.

    Any death no matter the cause is always tragic but ones that could be prevented are even worse.

    The handsets were not on, so obviously there was no predive performed. What an awful day for his wife, my condolences.
