How far away is death? Recreational night dive
So, have you ever been a recreational ocean diver, or someone who enjoys a night dive?
Dekhtiar tells us, “This was a solo night dive at a site I had dived only once before when conditions were surgy.” . . . “At one point, I decided that it would be safer to ascend in order to orient myself; however, once I broke the surface, my surroundings were completely black, and I had no idea whether I came from the left, the center, or the right. I was able to distinguish that I was very close to the shore, so I decided to swim ahead of me to the shoreline and most likely would have to walk back to my truck.”
A night dive discovery
Dekhtiar continues by telling us his discovery that he’s in a place with many large rocks, “In addition, the so-called ‘shore’ in front of me was basically the bottom of a cliff. By the time I realized where I was, it was too late. The waves and current were way too strong to fight them. Waves were crashing me into large rocks, and I was genuinely frightened that one wave would hurdle me onto a rock headfirst, and that I would lose consciousness and drown.
The stress of the night dive
To add to the stress, the waves tended to add an incredible amount of air bubbles in the water, giving me zero chance to see anything even if it had been right in front of my face.”
