Fantastic fellow

Thats my son!!!!!

We just fished this on 3/23/2023

Paid advertising on a sunken boat. Get your Medicare Part B, your boat warranty is about to expire. Call now for your ED medications! Reservations taken now for your AirBnB, come sleep with the fishes. Lake Mead ain’t got nothing on us!

Not a transmission, it's called REDUCTION GEARS!

Would love to a ship sink from under the water line

That’s a good job. There’s hundreds of them, you got the lot round that structure. How long does it take for it to repopulate? If you go there the next week is it the same ?!

Wow! Awesome dive! Lots of big amberjacks!

Great photography! Love the soundtrack too. I dove it 1983 thru 1994. Has really collapsed, the spare prop was on the deck as a great subject with a diver next to it for scale. Found the binnacle lantern on the first 10 min of my first dive on her in '83. Was on the gunnel, wedged under a pipe put there when they blew the superstructure in 1964.

I can't get enough of this invasive species. It's really satisfying to watch.

bums me out... but I know it has to be done.

This is the cause of Sea Rise!

I peed off the poop deck

Is it second world war wreak???

Thanks, this is a great video.

Nice porn music

I have one of the name boards off of her.

I hate to see an unintended sinking. But reefing a retired vessel that almost immediately attracts life... I just love these videos.

Buena pesca hermano 👍 esos tiburones son oceánicos ? Saludos desde República Dominicana 🇩🇴👍🐟🦈🐬🐟

1:47 : ✈ = good sign 🛳 = bad sign

Nice job, i've never understood the animosity from the free-diving community. You'd think the gripe would be with charter boats/ commercial fishing ect.

Leave no lionfish alive

how funny would it have been to have a scuba diver sitting on the shitter with a camera and riding it to the bottom.

I dove her back in the '80s with Laney Rinehart who took the prop off her. She sure was in better shape then.

My grandfathers brother died onboard the empire mica hope I can dive it one day looks amazing!

Lionfish taste amazing!

I Captained this vessel for 6 years, she was a beauty, sad to see her go, I hope to get to dive the site someday....

Those views from inside the sinking ship would not be a good thing to see in person!

I'm pissed that they didn't make the USS Oriskany a museum. I served aboard from 71 to 74 and I live in Western New York near the Battle of Oriskany Battleground. It would have seen more fitting to restore the Oriskany an anchor it in New York Harbor take the USS Intrepid and Scuttle that in the Gulf of Mexico. Rotten bastards.

Beautiful video!

Nice work 😃

Good bye marine life. You americans better start to get used to eat Lion Fish, is the only fish you would eat in the next generations

that is hard to believe !!! they are taking over...kinda like Mexicans in California....

great video

Has anyone ever been caught who released them by any chance ?

..wow..so many..what do you do with that catch guys?? Everything goes to the kitchen??

do you guys go back to see if they've returned?

I observed from these videos down at 200 ft the terror fish are much bigger .

this lion fish terror fish has to be attack l Iike Navy SEAL operation . Assign sectors,of AOR . Assign teams to reconn grids for the terror lion fish and capture or destroy them .

How long do they figure this ship will last relatively intact before the structure starts to collapse? It's already been reported that it was shifted some distance from the original resting spot during one of the last big hurricanes that hit the area. Even before they sank it, it had been sitting rusting in dock for 3 decades. As far as her sister ships are concerned -- the ones that were preserved as museum ships --, my understanding is that TOPSIDE their hulls are in excellent shape. The one that was judged to be in "worst shape" actually came out fairly well even though the group that cares for that ship (USS Yorktown CV-10) was advised they still had to do some conservation work. Very, very expensive stuff which is why there are only 5 carriers preserved as museum ships...

Clean up gulf. These lionfishes do not belong there. As matter of fact, it doesn't belong to Atlantic ocean

What did you shoot this with

What's the music being played? Good job and looks like a fun dive.

2:41 dude needs some stronger barbs on his polespear. every lionfish just skips off his pole.

IT BOOP THE SNOOT

What do you do with them? I heard they're good to eat

Processed for research? Should have been processed for dinner!

Why do you hunt the Lion Fish? What are they doing i dont understand...

Awesome work
