Scuba Guru Reports Scuba Diving Is Statistically Safe

According to Scuba.About.com, scuba diving remains statistically safer than driving, having children, participating in a marathon or skydiving. Of every 5,555 registered drivers in the United States, one dies as a result of a car accident. In contrast, only one in every 211,864 dives ends with someone losing their life, and this is often the result of a pre-existing disease in the diver. Inadequate buoyancy control and violent water movement or rapid ascent are two other leading causes of death in divers. To prevent injuries and fatalities, those wishing to take part in this activity need proper training, and Scuba Guru can be of assistance with this, offering personalized one on one training for all students.
