 | I recently heard that a fellow that had gone diving during his cruise holiday, encountered some trouble and drowned. Details were sketchy since I heard them second hand from the person that heard it from a diver that was there.
As I understood it, the fellow had some sort of trouble either during the dive or immediately upon reaching the surface. He was disoriented at the surface for some reason. Somehow or other, he ended up with all of his gear off except for his weightbelt. He ended up on the bottom . . . No one could get to him fast enough to save him. Actually, I'm not sure they even managed to recover him.
Does anyone have any more info on this accident?

CDNN does:

They probably made it up. I couldn't find backup in either the Concord, NH local rag or the Cayman online news.

Oh geez, good point. It's not the same guy.
One year apart . . .

 | If you had bothered to check the date of the article you referenced
http://www.cdnn.info/safety/s040101b/s040101b.html
You would see that it was JAN 1 2004...
It was referencing the same individual

I'm not sure who you are trying to talk to Paul, but my original query was with regard to a cruiseship diver who drowned *this* year.
So, there still have been no results, in that regard.

To be more effective here at rec.scuba, you should learn how to quote the poster to whom you respond.
In any event, neither one of you came up with the right guy. The person I'm referring to, drowned sometime after Christmas 2004.

Yup, that's "recent" news. Or, as I tell my f-i-l (who reads two week old newspapers), it's called "news", not "olds".

I can't believe you read that rag.

In any event, CDNN didn't even have as much info as I had second-hand, well, other than the possible heart-attack.

I don't. I do search Google when my friends are too lazy.

I could have guessed it was a heart attack.
Did you have his name?
