First dive in Jamaica a lady bolted for the surface and the assistant dive master was on her like a shot out of a cannon. Wrapped his legs around her and stopped her cold. Made her look in his eyes. He did a great job. Calmed her down and she finished just fine. |
I used to love doing that to students. I was an instructor for many years, and you learn who you can safely to that to, and who will panic. Also not a good way to meet potential dates.... they did not like that....
