    "Divers Break Their Own Record"

    much better than saying that their gonna break a world record. And politics aside, going 20,000ft from the closest exit point is a LONG way. I'll give them props.

    That's great... now if we could just get an independent dive team in there to "verify" what they say...

    I'll volunteer to attempt 21,000 ft to make sure they didn't short-change themselves . . . if someone will hold my hand.

    20,000 feet. 14 hours of Deco. Man I don't even like to take road trips that take 14 hours.
    More power to em but I still think other qualified divers should be allowed to dive this publicly owned resource.

    They shot video of it. Is that enough "verification" for you.

    Bitter and resentful? I'm sorry, but to judge me for asking for proof of a "record" dive as bitter and resentful is kind of useless. I guess that means everyone who asks for verification is bitter and resentful?

    Living egocentric through life gets you nowhere also.

    In case you forgot, Wakulla is just one cave in florida... there are thousands, many still unexplored. Thats the kind of caves I like...

    I love the attitudes that still "surround" the groupies (sherpas) for the WKPP.

    Well, most of us will never have the opportunity to do a dive like that, but we can try something that could be pretty challenging. Like a competition where you have four teams of divers at Orange Grove. Each diver has to drink a whole six pack before entering the water. Another six pack is waiting at Challenge, Olsen, and the last six pack waiting on the steps at P1. The first team that drinks all their beer, and makes it to the tailgate wins.
