Re:SOLO Diving

I have done several solo dives, all at the same lake with good vis and all in less than 20' at a beach where I have been metal detecting.
Mark brings up a very good question, and I have thought about this quite a bit. My thoughts are that 20' or less is safe to dive alone. I always watch my air so I will not run dry, and equipment failure is rare but if it happens I'm within 20' feet of the surface.
I'm in pretty good shape but the one thing that bothers me about diving alone is what if you have a stroke or heart attack. Its not a good thing even above water.
So I decided if I lived my life around ALL the "What ifs", I would'nt even be able to leave the house because What if I leave the house and get in a car accident. What if I go outside and get stung by a wasp and have and allergic reaction. And so on, And so on.... I think you need to guage the risk and then decide.
GO DIVING!
