Nor would I pretend otherwise: all I can tell you is that you shouldn't spend more than a certain amount of time at a certain depth because it is a proven fact that it can cause decompression illness. That, and other proven facts are all you need to know, the experience is yours to undergo.

Of course, but should you state that seeing the Great Sardine Run grants you automatic entry into the Garden of Eden you haven't got the right to feel insulted if the diving community questions your assertion vigorously and demands that you present evidence to that effect: after all, failing to do so would be selfish in the extreme because you would be preventing millions of others from enjoying the same divine largesse as yourself.
