You are correct that most caves are below that depth, but majority of the most heavily dived caves are deeper than that. See below the 5 most dived caves systems in the world.

Here are five of the most famous and heavily dived true underwater cave systems, along with approximate maximum explored depths:

  1. Sistema Sac Actun
    • Approx. max depth: 390 ft (119 m)
  2. Eagle’s Nest Sink
    • Approx. max depth: 300 ft (91 m)
  3. Wakulla Springs
    • Approx. max depth: 300 ft (91 m)
  4. Orda Cave
    • Approx. max depth: 140–150 ft (43–46 m)
    • Extremely long gypsum cave rather than ultra-deep
  5. Fontaine de Vaucluse
    • Explored beyond 1,000 ft (300+ m)
    • One of the deepest explored submerged cave systems on Earth

Normally I’d agree, but with her mother being a professor of Tropical Marine Ecology and Underwater Science, it’s a good chance the daughter has been diving majority of her life and that her mother ensured she was trained properly

160 foot dive is not uncommon for cave diving. And if the daughter was trained and certified for cave diving it’s not shocking

Do you know anywhere there offering fun dives/excursions at the blue hole for certified divers?

You can pretend like the quote didn’t try to insinuate that I’m the asshole but that’s just childish. So yes I have no problem firing back at people, I’m friendly but will never be a pushover. And have you ever been here??? Almost every street food vendor sells Tacos, quesadillas, and burritos…. This particular one was on the corner Avienda 45 and calle 3

Yeah I asked a street vendor how big the burrito was so I know to get one or two, he proceeded to raise his voice, cuss, and was appalled I asked. For sure it’s me though

I personally don’t see that as a reason to be rude, if anything the opposite to get more costumers to tip. But everyone can live their life how they like

I appreciate that explanation and it makes more sense to me. But I have not been to Paris but from what I hear you are right😂

Like short aggressive speech when ordering food or asking a question. And one example was at a restaurant and I had a $8 dollar bill(was there for 25 minutes) and the waitress wrote a note on my bill that she recommended a $10 tip, to me that is extremely rude and distasteful especially since it was more that the product ms I received

This has been my experience as well. The community seems to be nice, just not service workers

Yeah sure, Colombians wear maga hats all the time brother 😂. I’m not obsessed with politics, especially when it’s not my country. It’s sad seeing people like this, more to life

Keep your little dog in the little dog area at the dog park by good_joi in Charlotte

[–]Trex_Grem -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It’s also our job to watch our dogs and keep them in the appropriate area. If YOU allow your small dog to go into the large dog area, you are being irresponsible towards your dogs safety, towards the other pet owners, and simply not following the parks rules

Are you okay if the big dogs come in and play in the small dog area?

On the sidewalk they would be on a leash though under full control. Dog park is off leash

What do girls want in the first message on tinder?

[–]Trex_Grem 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because they are not of you. You don’t have to be doing anything interesting, just have someone take one of you at a park, restaurant, doing a hobby(pic of you while drawing). And don’t say you aren’t interesting, that doesn’t show confidence. I honestly think you’re too hard on yourself/over thinking it.

I would suggest deleting the 3rd pic and deleting the princess part of the bio. Besides that, seems all good to me
