how many recorded dives have you actually done at 230 feet for 20 min? Recreational diving at over 200 feet for 20 minutes is. fuggin unheard of. I dove a few time sin the Red Sea on some ship wrecks and dove to 180 feet for 5 minutes and that took an experienced diver.

The pipe line is closer to 300 feet. Did the Air farce have a diving program for gas pump jockeys like you?

Ive dove over 30 years and you're full of BS again Johnny vodka.

Yeah that not too bad and possible on regular gas, but if it was a diver, my bet it was a rebreather or trimix, considering the bottom time was probably more than a few minutes.

I could do a 230ft for 20min with a Navy table decomp schedule and overstay all the stops by a few minutes on an alum 80.

I always used dual 80s for those dives and a regulator on each tank and swapping out tanks every 1000psi in case a high pressure seat blew or some other thing happened.

Point is there are a lot of actors with the ability to cut those pipelines.

My bet is the lines were blown from the inside but I would not bet much as there are so many possible players.
