Yikes!  Call me a candy-ass if you wan't, but that's why I stay above the water line!

I know for sure that one guy was 70 and another was 68 and they both had heart conditions. I didn't read the press atrical, but I also believe they were both rock picking and not diving.

When it's your time to go.....it's your time to go!  Just be careful!

CHEERS!

Failing to acknowledge your limitations has no age limit.The sea never sleeps.

I bet we could find plenty of geezers that kicked the bucket on powerboats , kayaks, exercise bikes and trophy wives, but that isn't newsworthy for the most part...

Had another die yesterday in Fort Bragg. That's makes way too many!

CHEERS!

Four in five days...thats a pretty heavy toll.

Do the Ab's have a punch card on humans.  If so they have gone over the limit?

the first tragedy from that clip, was a fellow employee at the company I work for (Bio-Rad).I did not know him(different dept.)
He had experience in diving and got caught in the heavy-surf.     

ALL BAD...
