"Raising the Dead," the last dive of Dave Shaw

"At the bottom of the biggest underwater cave in the world, diving deeper than almost anyone had ever gone, Dave Shaw found the body of a young man who had disappeared ten years earlier. What happened after Shaw promised to go back is nearly unbelievable—unless you believe in ghosts."

This is a very interesting (and sobering) article on the dangers of cave diving. The cave in the piece is the third-deepest freshwater cave in the world, over 900 feet. Shaw's last moments were captured on his video camera, and the footage made it onto TV and then onto the net.
