Is scuba diving dangerous?
Yes! Especially for dives that are longer, or dives that are deeper. The result of a careless ascent could be 'the bends', which is painful, and can be fatal.

The word SCUBA is an anagram based on: self-contained underwater breathing apparatus. SCUBA was invented by Jacques Cousteau.

What is SCUBA health insurance?
Scuba health insurance is the insurance that protects you while you are scuba diving if you need any health procedures because of your diving. For example, if you were to get the bends from scuba diving, or if your lung were to rupture from holding your breath, this scuba insurance would cover it. Since paying for these procedures are very expensive "out of pocket," this means that you might not get the treatment unless you have this, or at least you could not pay it off.

No, you don't need a certain body type to scuba dive. Because you use flippers to SCUBA dive, you can be a very lousy swimmer and learn to SCUBA dive. You may look stupid with a very tight wet suit during scuba diving, but you can dive. When I got certified, I learned that you have a very slightly higher chance of the Bends during scuba diving, but this is a small percentage. The pros of scuba diving outweigh the cons.
