You most certainly deserve it my friend and you have my respect and respect is a mighty hard thing to come by these days. Congratulations on a job well done...!

You're a mad man Dave! Congratulations on raising so much money!

[terawattyear]

Well done Dave! I wouldn't have begrudged you taking off that suit as hot as it was. The fact you didn't shows that you are the man! You respected the requests of those that donated. I am impressed.

To everyone who ever rant(ed) on that scope abuse: We wanted him to do that, remember? So no need to rant at all, as he has just went like he has been told to do. Furthermore he also raised a huge amount of money donated to the cancer council just *because* of that scope abuse as If you do not like this....WTF!!

Anyway: Dave you´re my *HERO* !! Great show, thanx for this brilliant footage!! As it looks a lot better then i thought!!

[lednerg]

Hahaha, this is great! Thanks for doing all of this, and for such a good cause!
I'm sure you'll have a wonderful repair video for us about that scope.

Looked like fun. Everyone loves those GoPro's.

[rarbiart]

i can't wait to see a teardown of the scope.

[bjorndethij]

Are you going to try the scope see if it still works.

Awesome video Dave!!!!

[TheHuesSciTech]

Great stuff Dave! At the start, I was worried that you had decided against the bunny suit! But you came through!

[ForViewingOnly]

Seriously impressed with that Klein meter! (And YOU! I have a personal story and the Cancer Council were just awesome).

[TonyButchT]

Fantastic Dave!
The dark shadow in the tunnel looked better than if you had it lit up IMO.
Also liked when you first dove into the water, how the scope floated along with you!

[FrontSideBus]

Looking forward to seeing the tear down of that scope to see the damage :)

[BlahBleeBlahBlah]

Awesome work Dave, I had a smile on my face the whole video! Great to see you having fun and a laugh for a great cause :-)
