I think it is a matter of time before she has a visit to the chamber.

Not knowing the details of this dive, but she never looked at her gauges, no buddy around, looks like the weight may be unbalanced, or just playing around and not thinking.

Either way, totally agree w/ Parrotman on the chamber comment. Looks like a fast ascend & my ears would be hurting. :-D <--saying OUCH!

Have to agree with the consensus; even assuming a proper safety stop, that final ascent was way too fast.

Stan were you on a trip with her and filmed her? How did you get this video?

Not sure what depth she came up from but it seemed entirely too fast and there was no safety stop. YIKES!

Yes, We were on the same boat. She and her husband seemed to be good divers. I saw her on the mooring line doing a full 3 minute safety stop @ 20 -15 feet and then swimming under the boat horizontally until under the ladder. I just thought I'd video an ascending diver, but was very surprised when she passed upward though the last 12 feet so quickly. At least she got a full lung exhale at about 10 feet where you see her swimming quite fast by her bubbles. I try to ascend very slowly up from 10'. BTW,That was 2nd dive of day max depth 55', 70 min for myself.
