: What I heard from the charter service is that this was a medical problem a "heart attack". He was a 56 year old experience diver using a rebreather who has dove for a number of years with this service.

: : DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE DEATH ON THE CEDARVILLE OVER THE WEEKEND WAS CAUSED FROM POOR JUDGEMENT OR MAYBE MEDICAL COMPLICATIONS . I HEARD ON THE RADIO THAT THE DIVER WAS SUPPOSSED TO BE AN EXPERIENCED DIVER . THE RADIO MADE ITR SOUND LIKE HE MAY HAVE BEEN DIVING WITH OUT A PARTNER .
The diver was said to be rather independent and he was diving solo - although other divers had seen him on the wreck. As far as a medical problem, I think it is too early to say anything yet. The Cheybogan County Medical Ofice will have to make that determination and that information will be forth coming shortly.
