Actually Cousteau nearly died in blue holes here in the Bahamas when his crew was swimming through SB-4 with magnesium flares and NO guidelines. If it werent for cave diver George Benjamin (inventor of the "Benji valve"..aka crossover manifold), Cousteau and his crew would still be in SB-4 holding their flares with empty tanks. George went in and guided them out on his line, era 1970.
