Not to be a smart-ass, but I definitely think the chances are much better of you waking up on the surface rather than underwater. Of course there will always be the 'what if' factor, but then again, what if you don't make it to the surface? At least it is one additional plus in your favor. I know the chances of revival are much better with mask off, direct air, etc, but just getting the BO'd diver up and on the surface is a big chance at survival.
