Gary's Pinnacle Standard SCUBA Instruction Agreement and Release
The undersigned agrees and stipulates that SCUBA DIVING is an insanely dangerous activity, and that the instructional/supervisory personnel were just sitting around minding their own business, telling diving stories, when the undersigned, who agrees that he/she is a raving loon, came barging in, uninvited, waving a loaded assault rifle and demanded that he/she be given scuba lessons for the express purpose of suffering serious injury and/or death, leaving the instructional/supervisory personnel with no reasonable choice but to enter into this agreement. The undersigned further acknowledges that he/she has no desire to continue life without said instruction and would take his/her life, and the life of anybody else in the area, without further thought, should said instruction be denied. The undersigned further agrees that he/she will hold harmless all instructional/supervisory personnel involved in his/her course of instruction for any and all claims he/she has or that may arise now and forever after including but not limited to negligent acts, omissions, torts, intentional torts, crimes, and high treason that he/she may suffer.
Further, this agreement/release is to be binding now and forever as to the undersigned and his/her estate, assigns, and heirs (should they not also die).
Further, the undersigned agrees that all scuba equipment purchased and jewelry worn by him/her shall become the property of whatever instructor/divemaster he/she is under, or supposedly under, the control of if and when death or serious injury results.
