I was out on the Spectre a couple of months ago, and there was this couple with their niece and nephew. The nephew was diving with uncle. Uncle was 6ft, 225+, nephew was 4ft, and could have been 100lbs. All suited up on deck, nephew was cute as cute could be. But when I was them togather down at 40ft, uncle on his knees, and looking nephew in the eyes, who was standing, I couldn't help but think, what would/could that small child do if something happened to uncle. Didn't seem too cute after that. Aunt and niece where a much better match. The niece was a couple years older then her brother, and bigger.
