Warning:  If you do not have cave specific training do not enter into any overhead environment 

A typical recreational scuba dive involves a descent, a bit of underwater exploration, and an unimpeded ascent to the surface when planned bottom time and/or air supply dictate. A “safety stop” at around 15 feet (5 m) for several minutes is the norm, performed as an extra measure of safety against decompression sickness. This “down and up” type of dive differs greatly from one in which a “ceiling” — a barrier that prevents a diver from making a direct ascent — is present. Ceilings can be real, impenetrable objects such as a shipwreck or cave, or virtual, as in a required decompression stop. Diving in overhead environments requires additional training, equipment and preparation. It also requires that divers be mindful of the risks involved. -DIVE TRAINING MAGAZINE-
