Orange Grove?

I saw a fellow fall with doubles on his back on the walkway at Peacock 1 last weekend. Fortunately, he wasn't hurt and we all got a laugh, but it was scary until we saw he was ok. That walkway is also very slick. Be careful out of the water as well as in it!!!!

I'm always concerned for the person's safety when they take a tumble,but it always worries me when they brush off the dirt they head to the water and commence the dive. It is prudent to get out of the water and check your gear over,since your life support equipment just took a jolt. I was with someone once that had a tumble like that. In the middle of the dive I saw bubble spewing out of the connection between the crossbar,and the valve. After a safe exit,examination revealed that the tanks had shifted in the bands from the fall,and the valve was slightly bent.

There are so few "less visited sites" with steps at all

True, but there are some "almost never visited" sites, with elaborate steps.

I was standing at the bottom of the stairs on the flat wooden part just before the final stairs to OG, I was in full kit getting ready to walk up the stairs when a guy walking down carrying a single LP121 slipped, the tank came at me down the stars end over end as I watched in horror, all I could think was if that vavle lets go I'm screwed. I managed to JUST get out of the way as it lay there hissing, the regulator obviously damanged.

After he got to his feet and picked his cylinder up, I felt bad for the guy and I said "you can cuss now" so he started cussing under his breath.

Falling on your butt is especially painfull when your reels hang back there. Now my buttplate will give me some cush.

Tough to explain to your family practioner that you have a double ender where the sun don't shine

Thats why I went side mount. One time I fell at Orange Grove, before the stairs were built, and landed with a cypress knob between my legs. Other falls followed.

Yes it would be! LOL!

On the other hand, an ER doc would be totally unsurprised.
