This video was recorded in Cozumel during a deep dive 100 feet below the surface for a PADI Advance Open Water certification. A defective weight belt with plastic buckle became loose and dropped to the bottom of the ocean. Uncontrollable ascent ensued. Had the instructor not come the the rescue, the student will most certainly have gotten Decompression Sickness (Bends).
