Joe I have seen what they call a Hookah it is a sad set up indeed. basically a Harbor Freight compressor (you would use for construction) some long air line and a dive belt. When you ask hos long the stay down some will say 6 hrs at 50' they have no instruction or dive tables that they follow they surface just long enough for a drink and some lunch and then go back down. I am AMAZED there aren't more accidents reported.

Besides the normal problems...they probably have carbon monoxide poisoning from inhaling the fumes from the gas motor....

When you talk to some of thes guys they know that they are doing bad but they think it is just a joke. They are proud of how long they stay down and how deep they go. I question if it is lack of knowledge or something else!
I feel so sorry for those who dive for a living and either get the bends and survive or dye. My sympathy to all of the divers who just try to make a living and give their lives.

That is crazy, why wouldn't someone let these guys know this is wrong and will kill you? I double check myself every dive and would never ever conceder doing something like this.
So sad.

Why would the harbor master not have a safety course for these guys?

Even if he gets someone who is a certified diver, they can donate their time and at least tell these guys whats wrong with their technique and they will die sooner then later.

If you can save 1 life its worth it. I dont get it now 2 dead?
Real sad.

They should charge the captain of those boats with murder. Unless it was the captain of the boat that was diving?

That would be a tough crime to charge, unless it was a child the person was forcing to go under. These guys sound like they know the risks, it's not like a tourist having para-sailing accident caused by faulty equipment or something.

A couple of weeks ago, the mexican navy conducted some sort of classes for the panga divers, I hope it helps them understand the dive tables and the dangers that go with it
