Yes. Or the jet ski could have hit him or maybe went over him while he was coming up and he could not get to the surface in time to take a breathe.
Most really experienced free divers will take their weight belt off on a dive where they have pushed their limits and hold onto it on the way up so that if they pass out they drop the weight belt and then float up to the surface. A lot of spearfisherman dive dive with a buddy so that if one gets shallow water blackout on the way up the other one will see it and go down and rescue him.
