    I think you should actually talk to some cave divers and I think you’ll find you are misinformed. I have and it’s ridiculously dangerous and I even had a friend who died doing it. There is a reason you have to get a separate certification for diving with structures overhead.

    The only way this makes any sense to me (on a per capita basis) is because cave divers probably are way more careful because they are aware of the challenges vs. open water divers who probably find it routine and make mistakes.
