SH123: Why is it so hard to thumb a dive, or end something that you have committed to? 7:05

1M ago7:05

7:05

One of the key lessons in diving is that anyone can end a dive at any time for any reason, no questions asked, yet making that call can be tough due to unspoken pressures. This episode explores how inferred peer pressure, desire for group belonging, and risk-taking in “losing situations” all affect a diver’s willingness to thumb a dive. Through sto…

SH118: Being a deviant is normal... 6:13

2M ago6:13

6:13

In this episode, we delve into "normalization of deviance"—how divers, like workers in many fields, can gradually drift from safe practices due to pressures to be more efficient or productive.
