That's really shit to hear I've got a few mates who, out of stupidity mind you, have gotten shitfaced, no sleep and then attempted heavily saturated deco dives and ended up with shoulders and joints the size of balloons and not been allowed on charters out of risk anymore.

I start to get mildly narced at just over 45m nowadays and that's why I went full trimix. I was overseas and had a few dives in the 50+m range on air and thought all was sweet and then viewed the gopro footage and gone "We went into the fucking engine room?!? I don't remember that..."
