This is a question Protest!

Sit-ins. Walk-outs. Smashing up the headquarters of a major political party. Chaining yourself to the railings outside your local sweet shop because they changed Marathons to Snickers. How have you stuck it to The Man?

Are you a qualified diver?

eh?
Not at the time, I was too young. the guy who'd hired the van was passing out at the wheel. It was dark, pissing with rain on a moor road in the middle of nowhere. I didn't even manage the first corner.

You were too young to dive but old enough to get wrecked? I got my first PADI at 12 years old.

Sorry I read that as 'driver'
Yes, i worked on and off doing light commercial work, underwater demolition and occasional instructing.

At the time I was 16 and we were collecting scallops.

So I take it you know if they go bang in the back of a van, you ain't walking away from it, at least not likely.

Yes
the three and a half thousand psi did cross my mind as the van rolled over.

A couple of years later a guy I know got his leg blown off filling an out of date cylinder at a Malta dive school.

A mate of mine had a dive centre in the TRNC, all low-level tourest stuff (ain't much to see there anyway)....
... but someone firebombed his van with 6 full bottles in the back ready for an early morning one. It took out most of the building.

You're lucky to be walking mate, let alone doing a com dive.
