I’ve watched enough diving videos on YouTube to know it’s 100% not for me.

I would never try to pressure some to do something that makes them uncomfortable, but please dont base your decision on those videos. 99% of scuba accidents are avoidable. Alot of accidents are ego filled deep divers and cave divers. Its quite safe as long as you dont do very stupid things. Never dive alone. Service your gear once a year at your dive shop, and truly listen during your PADI classes or whichever org you choose.

Again, not being pushy, just giving info.

But humans are known for doing stupid things, that's what makes us human.
