Submitted by Corey:
So Dave an avid diver decided to buy an air compressor so he could save
money on his air fills, but being that compressors are so expensive he
decided to buy a surplus compressor from Algeria. The only problem was
that the instructions were in Sanskrit leading Dave to hook up the compressor
backwards. So instead of filling his tank Dave removed 3000 pounds
from it. Upon taking his first breath at the dive site he was immediately
sucked into the tank never to be found again, but rumor has it his wife is
keeping
him on a lovely rack in the basement next to his compressor.

You know your dive buddy is a Doctor, when you give him the out of air
signal and he writes you a prescription, his golf clubs are attached to
his
tank and you can't read his dive log.
You know your dive gear is old, when you go to turn on your air
and everyone
runs, the Smithsonian Institution wants to display your equipment,
and there's more duct tape on your wetsuit than there's neoprene.
You know your dive buddy is a Police Officer, when you give him
the out
of air signal and he writes you a ticket, he hides behind a reef watching
for speeding fish, and as a Divemaster he asks the boat captain
"Where's the closest donut shop?"

Diving with no tanks? |
| A |
One day, a diver was enjoying the aquatic world 20 feet
below sea level. He noticed a guy at the same depth he was,
with no scuba gear on whatsoever.
The diver went below another 10 feet, but the guy joined him
a minute later. The diver went below 15 more feet, a minute
later, the same guy joined him.
This confused the diver, so he took out a waterproof
chalkboard, and wrote, "How the heck are you able to stay
under this deep without equipment?"
The guy took the board and chalk, erased what the diver had
written, and wrote, "I'm drowning, you moron!"

the boat springs a leak and starts to sink. The SSI instructor
says to his students, "Okay, we're in the middle of the ocean,
so we might as well do our deep dive." The NAUI instructor
says to his students, "Okay, we might as well do our
navigation dive, so let's get our compasses out and swim

| Q |
Why going diving with your buddy? |
| A |
My SCUBA instructor always stressed that you should never
go diving alone. If you have equipment problems, your buddy
can help you. If you run out of air, your buddy can help you.
If you meet an aggressive shark, your odds are 50-50
instead of 100%.

10 years without diving? |
| A |
A man is stranded on a desert island, all alone for ten years.
One day, he sees a speck in the horizon. He thinks to
himself, "It's not a ship." The speck gets a little closer and he
thinks, "It's not a boat." The speck gets even closer and he
thinks, "It's not a raft." Then, out of the surf comes this
gorgeous blonde woman, wearing a wet suit and scuba gear.
She comes up to the man and she says, "How long has it
been since you've had a cigarette?"
"Ten years!" he says.
She reaches over, unzips this waterproof pocket on her left
sleeve and pulls out a pack of fresh cigarettes. He takes one,
lights it, takes a long drag and says, "Man, oh man! Is that
good!"
Then she asked, "How long has it been since you had a drink
of whiskey?
He replies, "Ten years!"
She reaches over, unzips the waterproof pocket on her right
sleeve, pulls out a flask and gives it to him. He takes a long
swig and says, "Wow, that's fantastic!"
Then she starts unzipping the long zipper that runs down the
front of her wet suit and she says to him, "And how long has
it been since you had some REAL fun?"
And the man cries out, "My God! Don't tell me you've got a
set of golf clubs in there, too!"

A few members of a local BSAC club went diving off the
South coast, amongst them was Jim and Wilma, a husband
and wife who always dived together. On the last dive they got
separated, Jim surfaced ok, but his wife was nowhere to be
seen. They initiated a search but after a long day and night, it
was called off and Jim went back home alone and
heartbroken.
The next day the club Diving Officer knocked on Jim's front
door and said "I’m really sorry Jim, but I’ve got some bad
news, some good news and some very good news",
Fearing the worst Jim said "Give it to me straight, what’s the
bad news?"
"Well we’ve found your wife’s body" came the solemn reply,
"Oh my God" wept Jim…… after a while he said "well, what’s
the good news?"
The dive officer excitedly said "You wouldn’t believe it, when
we brought her up, we got 2 large crabs and 3 huge
lobsters!!!"
After some time Jim said "what’s the very good new then?"
The dive officer said "Well, we’re going to bring her up again
tomorrow morning!"
