I'm pretty sure solo diving in the Red Sea off Sharm is illegal, however it does happen.
First year I went, they pulled a body out of the water, max depth on his instruments was about 120m
They think he was out narking (going down below 30m to deliberately get the effects of nitrogen narcosis).

Anyone know how deep the caves are out in Ras Mohammad?
Often saw people dropping like stones, with as many tanks as they could strapped to them as they plummetted into the darkness.

Thistlegorm is around 40m isn't it?
