WOW, that's all I can really say.  If I saw an AJ that size, I would not know whether to shoot or not.  People that shoot AJ's that size usually take them with a breakaway rig tied to a float line.  Not a shockcord.  Trully amazing.

Yer pimp hand is strong Josh!!!!

David, with the stress he was under, and the amount of air he was consuming, and still at a fasst heart and breathing rate even when he did make it to 15 feet, it has been argued that it is better to NOT do a safety stop, because if you are fighting for control and still breathing very heavy, you are absorbing more nitrogen, and your tissue loading goes even higher, since even 15 feet IS a half an atmoshphere.

And safety stops, although a great thing, are still just that, a safety stop. My older computer I use will allow me to do a 66 feet per minute accent rate, and does not have ANY provisions for a safety stop. Of course, I still keep my accent under 33 fett per minute, and if doing multiple deep dives, I usually only do a 3rd of that, maybe 10 feet per minute, and take a long safety stop.

SO I don't think Josh was being irresponsible at all, he still stayed in limits of conventional diving.

And pulled up the biggest AJ I ever seen!!
