I just finished the book and agree it is a good read.
I am not a rebreather diver, so I learned a lot. While I have no aspirations to go to 900+ ft. in a cave, it does reinforce an appreciation for what we do. The book gets into the technical aspects of the dive, but it still reads well. Well worth the time.....

I'm sure I'll get around to reading this but did they ever publish an accident report?
Heres a post from one of the Doctors looking into the accident following the airing of the Outsiders documentary. It eludes to some of the problems on the dive (CO2 toxicity and some issues with the rebreather assembly)

The sea does not belong to despots. On its surface iniquitous rights can still be exercised, men can fight there, devour each other there, and transport all terrestrial horrors there. But at thirty feet below its level their power ceases, their influence dies out, their might disappears.
Ah, sir, live in the bosom of the waters! There alone is independence. There I recognise no masters! There I am free.
