ok - first example then.....Everything is fine and everything goes to plan......These are the sort of times you'll get.




Now this one.....everything is going to plan, and then...Oops.....Deco gas has gone and i can't use it anymore, and i'm all by myself....Do i have have enough backgas to complete my deco....I know i don't, hence the spare tin i carry..........Look at the time difference between the two........

My final bailout plan if i forget everything else is to breath what i've got, and when it runs out, get back to the surface. I don't really have much choice what happens then



Are you Chasey in disguise?
