This 2005 DEMA interview seems to say it all.

Wet,

There you go again. Every point you try to make in your blabber is false, or wrong, or misleading.

You need that chip on your shoulder shoved up your butt so you might stop talking shit.

Straight out you are a yellow belled coward with crap for a brain.

You call me a liar? If you have your finger pointed at me you have three pointed back at yourself.

“…Morgan talked his way onto a job in Alaska. Out on the rig, Morgan dressed into heavy gear and dropped into the swirling black waters of Cook Inlet. His job was simple; connect a massive shackle to an anchor system designed to hold the rig in place in the six knot currents found in the inlet. Unable to see, Bev directed the topside crew to take up slack on the wire ropes that supported the shackle, not realizing he had completely pinched off his air supply. As the air to his helmet dwindled and stopped, Bev climbed his hose until he reached a knot of hose and cables. He freed the hose and managed to surface safely. Bev realized he was in over his head and soon returned to Santa Barbara…”
Kind of clashes with diva’s video posting, in particular timestamp 6:52-7:03 that claimed 25+ years.

Additionally timestamp 5:47 – 5:58 …yeah right…if you didn’t abuse trademark privilege, and sue frivolously, others could get a chance to.

Rather be a coward than a bully, but you do what you can to have a good day, and if you ever decide to try it again, dive safe (remember umbilical management).
