A Scuba Diving Experience Turned Terrifying Due to Poor Coordination
Temple Adventures的点评
点评：I recently went scuba diving with Temple Adventures in Pondicherry, and my experience was a mix of both pleasant and horrifying moments. While their office and overall setup were professional, there were significant issues during the dive.
I had expected a larger training pool, but there was nothing to complain about during the training. I quickly got comfortable with the equipment and breathing underwater, completing my pool training without a hitch. By the end, I was sitting comfortably at the bottom of the pool, fully in control of my breathing and mind.
The problems began when we reached the dive site. I was fully geared up by the team and seated on the edge of the boat, but then, without any warning, I was flipped unexpectedly into the sea. Due to this lack of communication, I was not prepared. To my horror, when I hit the water, the assisting diver was nowhere near me. It seems there was a communication gap within the team. As a non-swimmer, I panicked, struggled to stay afloat, and even lost a fin in the chaos. In my panic, I also injured my legs by hitting the boat.
When the assisting diver finally got hold of me, I couldn’t understand why he was more interested in keeping me underwater while I was gasping for air. Despite repeatedly telling him that I needed to surface and catch my breath, he seemed more focused on completing the dive than on calming me down. In my panicked state, breathing through the mouthpiece was insufficient, which should have been a basic consideration for the dive team.
Having traveled approximately 5,000 kilometers for this experience, I was extremely disappointed. What should have been an exciting adventure turned into a terrifying ordeal. While I’m deeply disappointed in how this was handled, I also take personal responsibility for not being able to control my panic or calm down quickly, as my mind had stopped working. Even those middle-finger-sized bananas served as snacks on the boat couldn’t calm me down.

翻译：我最近在本地治里参加了 Temple Adventures 的水肺潜水，这次经历既有愉快的也有可怕的。虽然他们的办公室和整体设置都很专业，但潜水过程中还是出现了一些重大问题。
我原本以为训练池会更大，但训练过程中没有什么可抱怨的。我很快就适应了设备，并在水下呼吸，顺利完成了泳池训练。最后，我舒服地坐在泳池底部，完全控制着自己的呼吸和思维。
当我们到达潜水地点时，问题就开始了。团队为我做好了充分的准备，我坐在船边，但随后，没有任何警告，我被意外地翻入海中。由于缺乏沟通，我没有做好准备。令我惊恐的是，当我跳入水中时，协助潜水的潜水员根本不在我身边。似乎团队内部存在沟通障碍。作为一个不会游泳的人，我惊慌失措，挣扎着浮在水面上，甚至在混乱中丢掉了一只脚蹼。我在惊慌中还撞到了船上，弄伤了腿。
当救援潜水员终于抓住我时，我不明白他为什么更愿意让我在水下喘气。尽管他反复告诉他我需要浮出水面喘口气，但他似乎更专注于完成潜水，而不是让我平静下来。在我惊慌失措的状态下，通过咬嘴呼吸是不够的，这应该是潜水队的基本考虑。
为了这次经历，我旅行了大约 5,000 公里，我非常失望。本来应该是一次令人兴奋的冒险变成了一场可怕的折磨。虽然我对这件事的处理方式深感失望，但我也要为无法控制自己的恐慌或迅速冷静下来承担个人责任，因为我的大脑已经停止运转了。即使是船上那些中指大小的香蕉作为零食也无法让我平静下来。
