jathbee. the point of the lifeguards is to maintain safety in areas that they advise are safe to swim. i.e between the flags on the beach. you can't expect anyone to supervise what is known to be a dangerous quarry full of god knows what hidden hazards. You won't stop this behaviour and maybe one of the attractions to young people is the rebellion against advise. it's a bit daring and macho and that's why they don't go to the local swimming pool which is clean and safe
