Why do divers make bad decisions when they know better?

As certified divers, we should already have a pretty good understanding of how to dive safely. But many of us have found ourselves in unsafe diving situations such as diving beyond our training or diving despite apprehension or discomfort. Many of these dangerous situations result from poor decisions made before a dive,but why do divers make bad decisions when we know better?

I have found myself in several unsafe situations while diving. Once a dive operator encouraged me to go on a dive that was deeper than I was trained to go. Another time one put together my equipment for me, and when I went to double-check it he told me not to bother, saying they had “been doing this for years”.

Water is the expression of the unconscious, its own truth, place of the secret and unknown motivations…

Water, original element, before the language, allows descending and reaching the things of the lower level, place of the founding images.
