    You can find divers and places to dive in all corners of the globe unless you’re one of these round earthers who doesn’t believe the world has corners. The world’s surface is pretty much 70% water with underground diving too in-land on top of that so there’s never an excuse that there isn’t any diving nearby but there are some reasons not to go diving though, to be honest. As awesome as scuba diving is you should never take it lightly and you can hurt yourself quite badly if something happens in the water.
    So, hi I’m Mark from Simply Scuba and I’ll try to make this as funny as possible but this is You Should Never Go Scuba Diving When…

  • @Jamescraigjohnson
    @Jamescraigjohnson 3 года назад +12

    I agree the most with the last one, don't dive if you don't feel well, not confident or something just doesn't feel right. I would not want a person as my buddy if they are not "ready' for the dive. And never let anyone pressure you into diving if you don't want to, also you don't want that person as your dive buddy.

    If you don't feel comfortable with the buddy you've been paired with.
    If they seem 'squirrely' or too laid back, or not willing to coordinate things before you jump in togethed...then better to sit it out. I've learned that my gut instinct about someone has usually been right.

    • @slaxdobbs7519
      @slaxdobbs7519 5 лет назад +2

      Due to too many of those "random pairings' I've come to realize that we are always diving alone. 9 out of 10 times I am paired with a 'buddy' that isn't prepared, doesn't show awareness, and I generally spend more time making sure they are ok than enjoying the dive. I've started doing dives by myself lately, it's much more convenient (depending on location and charter) and prevents me from being a baby sitter to someone that doesn't want to actually learn. At the same time I tend to dive alone as a rescue diver in proximity to others to ensure they are g2g at the end of their dive, so I guess its a mixed bag. Don't want the bother, but am ok with the burden.
      Looping back, I probably wouldn't exclude doing a dive because a 'buddy' is squirrely, cause you are missing a dive. More be attentive to their needs if you actually want to dive at that moment. Its pretty much what we do most of the time anyway, just with a bit of additional chaos theory involved.

    I had an o-ring blow out on a dive. I had extra o-rings, but I didn't have the correct size o-ring. Thankfully, the dive instructor had every size o-ring. You should never go diving right after someone increases your life insurance policy, at least, not with the person who had it increased.

    • @jamesbuckle6077
      @jamesbuckle6077 4 года назад +3

      As someone with chronic Nasal swelling I can confirm this is a constant worry. I did find on one dive that, on the way down at about 15m, I couldn't clear one ear going down, but couldn't ascend as the other ear wouldn't clear going up. A minute of calm hovering eventually did it but it was a serious worry

  • @Inanna08

    Drugs at depth: avoid any anti-inflammatory drugs as they have a reverse effect at depth and therefore will result in serious issues upon ascent.

  • @MethosFilms
    @MethosFilms 5 лет назад +8

    u missed one that sorta goes with the not feeling well.
    make sure u go over the water temps and if u think u dont got the right thickness protection for your wetsuit for the water temp.
    i had to save someone when i was doing my open water. the person said they had a 5mm wetsuit but it really was only a 3mm. the water temp was too cold for 3mm.
    the person did the im not feeling well hand signal but i was the only one that seen it. luckily i had a bell on a string i can bang against my tank to alert everyone.
    the person was almost passed out by the time we got her to the surface.
    never dive if u do not know the water temp. u can die. the nitrogen build up is quicker if u are really cold.

  • @ryandickson2224
    @ryandickson2224 3 года назад +5

    If you plan on diving in cold water, make sure your wetsuit doesn't have too many holes. I went diving with a rented 7mm wetsuit in California that had holes in the knees and armpits. It was my first experience ever scuba diving and I loved it. But my lips were blue and I was aggressively shivering the whole time because water kept circulating through my suit lmao.

    if you're having congestion issues. Much like with your sinuses, fluids can block off a portion of your lungs at depth and cause a lung overexpansion injury on ascent which can be fatal if severe.

    Don't go diving without a minimum of knowledge about the local underwater fauna. On one of my first-ever dives, I spotted an odd looking fish in a rock crevice and reached my hand out to it. Before long, the fish turned out to be a six-foot moray eel with fierce razor sharp teeth which dashed out of the crevice and disappeared behind me in the blue. The diving instructor asked me after the dive if I was nuts, because a grown moray when startled can bite off your fingers like they're a pack of sausages. Live and learn. 😁

    While I agree with most of the 'you should never go diving when..' comments and I recognize that you may need to say certain things because of liability. I disagree with the never dive alone bit. We always dive alone, yes we are a safety for everyone around us (from random buddy to group in a class scenario to random non buddy that needs help), but we are first most a safety for ourselves and 'buddies' can actually inhibit that safety gradient at times, it can also inhibit divers from learning in environments that are completely safe with other controls in place. As a dive instructor, have you always had a 'buddy' that fit the requirements of a buddy? I know I wasn't during my open water cert and it was just the instructor and me on those dives...
