Underwater Ice Hockey?!

I saw this on Reuters yesterday and it looks pretty insane if u ask me! Personally I am really interested in the whole being underwater thing. I'm a qualified scuba diver and have nearly got involved in octopush (basically underwater hockey) once or twice. This looks like something I might try once, but anymore than that I think would be unlikely! I would feel a lot safer if full breathing apparatus was allowed, and a dry suit ;)

According to wikipedia "The first underwater ice hockey world cup was held in Austria in February 2007. Finland finished first, followed by Austria and Slovakia. The other competing nations were Czech Republic, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland and Slovenia." I don't think England will be entering a team in the near future however.
