STUCK?

[Dsix36]

I have been stuck a number of times. It doesn't matter if I am diving a wreck or a cave, there always seems to be some kind of small openng that is calling my name and, being the good soldier, I simply must answer the call. Most of the time it is not a big deal, but on occassion I have gotten myself into trouble.

I have learned that using AL80's (flat bottoms) for sidemounted bailout means that the tanks will "ratchet" through an opening and I can not back out. I have to be able to remove a tank in that case.

I have learned that exhaling to squeeze through a restriction can become very disconcerting when you are ready to take your next breath if you are not through the restriction yet.

I have learned that my rebreather is my best friend when I am stuck.

I got stuck in a panhandle cave a few years ago. The flow, on the way out, turned me as I approached the restriction. It forced me against it and it took a minute to get a bottle off to get through. RN, on the other hand got Trapped. He was behind me. He is well prepared for this kind of a situation. When he pulled out his large knife and started towards me, I unstuck myself and pushed through the restriction. Now that's motivation!

Oops! I didn't think you saw the knife!

It wasn't the knife as much as the grin on your face when you thought you would finally get to use it.
