Even very experienced divers can get it wrong.this article is pretty scary
The Deco Stop
I have had that feeling once. I thought I was gonna have to wash out the INSIDE of my drysuit when I got to the surface. BTW-I was at 140 ft on open circuit. Thank God I was wearing doubles and had done cavern training. I surfaced with 1700 lb of air left after starting with 2700. It is good to plan by the rule of thirds.

I learned more on that 27 minute dive than I did in the previous 100 dives together.
