Your step father is badass, do you go with him?
Badass
Fucking ninja
That's pretty awesome
I'll have to find out where this is so the next time I go down to Florida I have something planned out
[QUOTE=Funcoot;28082146]Your step father is badass, do you go with him?[/QUOTE]
He's a diving instructor as well and he's teaching me, i only have to do one more test and i'm good to dive. he's gonna take me ship wreck diving in Louisbourg harbor after i pass.

Damn, this stuff is so cool. I don't think I'd have the balls to crawl around caves under water though.

If I was reading that I'd be a little unnerved, but that's really cool none the less

google diving cave florida
i'd fucking love to learn how to dive, it would be so much fun to go into a shipwreck.
[QUOTE=Funcoot;28082176]Damn, this stuff is so cool. I don't think I'd have the balls to crawl around caves under water though.[/QUOTE]
I'd be quite on edge eheh. So much shit can go wrong, and if you're far enough in you might not even have enough time to resurface.
[QUOTE=Hybridthury;28082196]google diving cave florida[/QUOTE]
That was probably where I was going to start yes
Those signs would freak me out way too much to continue, even if I did know what I was doing.

They should just put in bold letters, "Aye man.. shit happens."

They should probably replace that sign soon.. It's so faded! That would scare me so much.
Goddamn that is awesome. I'd really love to do this some day.

I just realized, he's breaking the rules!
Thought it said "go no fart" till I saw the reaper picture, that's pretty awesome though
I've always wanted to try diving, but I can hardly even swim.
:smith:
Cool pictures though.
They still went further. it's just a warning. think of it as a disclaimer
oh wait holy shit didnt see the guy holding the sign scared the fuck out of me
[QUOTE=mr apple;28082378]oh wait holy shit didnt see the guy holding the sign scared the fuck out of me[/QUOTE]
lol
that would be my step father
My Algebra 2 teacher does this as well.
Apparently he used to buff but he's been diving so much that something about the pressure or whatever made him skinny looking
did he tell you that lol
[QUOTE=Hybridthury;28082485]did he tell you that lol[/QUOTE]
Well I don't know if he cave dives together
Maybe he dives in the ocean and explores above-ground caves...? I can't remember but he's not lying because he's always showing us pictures.
And he actually showed us pictures of him from several years ago and he seriously was ripped but now he's skinny as hell.
Oh and some of his other talents:
Magician
Standup Comedian
Track Runner
Body Builder
Catholic
Prankster
Can see the future(no joke he thinks he has premonitions)
Weirdest teacher I've ever had
Sanctum?

Quite a shit movie actually.
[QUOTE=hydra263;28082582]Sanctum?[/QUOTE]
these caves are completely underwater
Did you find any bodies?

I thought you needed to be adventure diver certified to dive in wrecks.
I'm too much of a pussy to do this, I'd be too scared that I would get trapped somehow, then I would be forced to sit there, waiting till my oxygen runs out.
This is going on my Have-To-Do-Before-I-Die List.
