One other thing:

I have been on fires where pilots have alerted us to the presence of 10" brook trout swimming in their buckets, which were subsequently found and eaten post drop.  If a pilot can see a trout, he shouldn't miss a scuba diver.
I do all my own stunts!

Water is also not compressible.  Velocity will change the effect on the object hitting the water.  Think belly flop from a 1m diving board compared to a belly flop from the 10m platform.   ::knockedout::

We should get together, put on some scuba gear, and then walk out of the woods right next to a helibase
on a fire and go "what the f***?" HA HA HA ::rofl::
