My condolences go out to the man's family and friends...just to put a spin on it...the whole debate a week or two ago about the guy disappearing during a shark dive...oh gee...this guy has a heart attack while diving...guess that doesn't count as quite as impressive or wow as a 'suspected' shark attack. More people die diving and being in and around the water from other causes that a 1 off random shark attack...just saying.
