So im going to tell some stories, and you oregonians may know some of the stories, and you may not know others. But ill start with how i came to this story. And, actually, whats surprising about it is how this story was very well known in its day. In 1836 when Washington Irving was commissioned by John Jacob Astor to write the story of these events 20 years after they occurred, irvings book, also called astoria, was a best seller of 1836. And those events have been largely forgotten in the american consciousness. I think you in oregon know a little bit more about them or im sure some of you know a lot more about them.

A group of scuba divers ventured out near south africa but theres a problem. First problem theyve gone separated from the diving instructor so you see them all motioning to go up. Looks like everybody is on board. When you notice two other divers that dont look to be going up. Theyre about 50 feet underwater and suddenly this woman starts to panic. No, no, no. Calm down, calm down. Shes taken off her mask and everything. Shes excited. Death warrant for herself taking her air off 50 feet under water. Shes an inexperienced diver. You cant just ascend from 50 feet because youll get the bends. At this point you have to do that though because at this point you have nothing to lose and the bends is not the worst thing that could happen. This not only was she panicking like we said going up that fast can be detrimental. Luckily but you got to get up fast because you cant breathe. You either drown or you get the bends. I think the bends. Luckily, shes okay. This video was posted last january b
