Comms died during a deep weld job

Was welding at depth when my comms failed. We had a backup plan with hand signals, but how do you handle it?

How do you set up your hand signals before a dive? I get why some think they're useless, but with a good plan, they save lives. We drill on signals for 'cut power', 'need help', and 'all good' until it's second nature. In murky water, big, clear moves beat a fuzzy radio any day. It's all about the team knowing the code cold.

Some documentary showed navy divers using signals in total blackout.

Yikes, hand signals are worthless down there.
