Raising the Dead - The death 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.

Came across this article today while researching cave diving and general "extreme" diving stuff. Interesting and thought I would share.

No shit. I read the entire thing, expecting some sort of unexplained/supernatural happening, and there was nothing of the sort. Well-written, fascinating story...ruined by a crappy by-line.
