Nope, my money is on Jim Greenlee (whom I haven't heard from in years).
He is the undisputed snot/blood-master in my book.  I vividly recall a
display of his technique following a dive to the bottom of the far end
of the Pelham, Alabama "Blue Hole" frequented by myself, Mike Wallace,
and other southeastern US divers in the vicinity.  I don't know that I'd
say it was "impressive", but it was quite "memorable", much like my
fish-feeding through the regulator at the same place following a lunch
of Krystals (White Castle to the northerners, I dunno what to you
non-North-Americans).
