interesting story but I am tempted to call BS on it.

Some assumtions here, dive company in La so it is a warm water shallow dive in the gulf. The three safety stops, cold water dive in a wet suit, and a jelly fish through a pump does not sound too likely.

But it is just a joke so hahahahahahahahahahahaha. I would not want a jelly fish in my wet suit.
