Diving is a risky sport.

My condelences to the families.
True, there are risks, but I think that nobody's really saying that they deserved to die. They did appear to be acting irrationally, and there is something to learn from that. But you won't hear me saying that they deserved to die. Mostly, I read this section, and some other similar materials to learn more about these risks, and add to my list of things not to do.
