I agree - the instructor cannot be blamed - after all, the Vic made a conscious decision to attempt the dive, and (as far as I know -after asking the vic's buddy and others in that class), did not express any worry or trepidation about the upcoming, or previous dives.
The Vic's physical / mental state is really the only grey area to me. The rest of the scene played out almost directly from the rescue course. I'm just glad that the scene ended as well as it did.
