Not a nice place to dive, that's for sure.

I can't (in my wildest imagination) imagine loving diving that much, or needing a job that bad! Just seeing the video makes me want to make sure my tetanus is up to date. If I have to have someone rinse me down with a disinfectant after a dive, that's a sign that I shouldn't have been doing that dive. My hat's off to Carlos! He's da man!

The main turn-offs were:

Human Excrement
Toxic Waste
Rotting Cadavers

To me, if I had to choose one, "Rotting Cadavers" would be the worst one.

Their dives last from 10 minutes to three hours, and range from 4 to 100 meters deep?

That's absolutely amazing to me.

Hey man, I'd stick with accounting, or go straight to the suicide. Sewer diving wouldn't ever represent any kind of "in between" to me.

Yeah, I would have to be getting at least $100,000 a dive to do that "crap"...
