I dont think anyone was blaming the victim here. Think people were just pointing out that it can be dangerous and there are many different ways a person can get into trouble and possibly die in the water. Its very unfortunate and sad no matter how it happened and my heart goes out to the victims family. For all the boardies here who do snorkel and partake in different activities in and around the waters in Jamaica please use common sence and be safe. If you cant go with a partner please tell someone where you are going and maybe also tell them how long you expect to be. Have fun and be safe
