I wholeheartedly agree here, he provide education and literally teaches us non-divers like me what the hell is even going on down there

[@stephenlamley541]

@@oopsallie agreed, although I feel in this one its more use to actual divers as its something that is relatively unusual. As much as this may put off some people (which I know isn't meant) I'm still very drawn to trying diving. I feel it would suit me, as I've always been able to swim underwater better than on top, self taught swimmer.

[@oopsallie]

@@stephenlamley541 Felt that, I literally don’t even know how to swim, but watching these videos would not throw me off to diving, they really just encouraged me to want to take lessons with these guys LOL! it’s so intriguing and terrifying, but with woody providing such knowledgeable points it’s fucking incredible

[@princesscandlewax5170]

I never even considered how much math & science is involved in diving until watching your videos. The amount of things you need to keep track of seems intimidating to me, even with a computer. It’s all very fascinating to me as a non-diver. Thank you for doing this.

[@DIVETALK]

Happy to help! It becomes second nature along the way, I know it sounds intididating but it's very simple, I promise.

[@iam____7829]

As a diver myself I second what dive talk says, it’s a lot more simple than it seems

[@heavymetalmusichead4969]

Love the profile pic .

[@georgia2321]

I’m also a non-diver - I’ve been watching dive videos for a ridiculously long time lol but I definitely know I don’t know anything about it lol. But my guess is, kinda along the lines of what they were saying, it seems like the more you do it the more intuitive it becomes, sorta like driving. I think of all the things I didn’t know when I first started driving, being nervous about it etc, and now it feels like it’s all just second nature. I don’t have to overthink things like changing lanes, or left hand turns, or check my speed every few seconds like I did when I was 16; and that ability only comes with the combination of info & lots of time “practicing” driving. No one is putting a 16yo on the interstate for their first drive, or behind the wheel of a semi truck or whatever. I think maybe a combo of information PLUS ‘practice at your current level’ is similar when it comes to diving? Start small and work your way up. Full disclaimer, I might be wayyyyy wrong haha - that’s just my best guess at why people can do it without freaking out the whole time like I would lol

[@Yggdrasil42]

You grow into it. At first the margins of error are large and you can make mistakes. When you go deeper, longer, more complex, you'll be more experienced and have had additional training.

[@conservovirtus5796]

I think you're interpreting this correctly, Gus. We're clearly dealing with at least one Super Cave Diver; the gentleman attempting to stab the vortex into submission. The SCD protocols dictate any other Daddies abandoning him at this juncture and going home.

[@orionthehunter217]

I can't stand fiction where it's clear that the author did zero research into something that I know a bit about. This is especially egregious when it comes to technology and hacking, movies and TV shows usually talk about it like it's magic, with explanations that make no sense at all. History is also usually misrepresented, even (or especially?) on the History Channel. So thanks for doing your due diligence so as not to come off as completely ignorant to those that actually know. That's a way to gain fans vs shooing them away.

[@Carib-ian.84]

Woody's comment at 17:17 spoken like a true DM "I wouldn't let go of him". No matter what your experience level anyone can have a freak incident of any kind, it's all how you react. Last month I had lost consciousness in an out at depth and my body and brain started symptoms of shock, hit a sudden cold thermocline, caused vertigo. I had let go and drifted away from the line. Luckily a very attentive buddy noticed he didn't see my light behind and backtracked apprehended the situation and made a safe assent. If he hadn't reacted right at that moment, I would not be here...

[@stt5v2002]

I was caught in a similar type of current on one of my first check out dives as a new open water diver. There was a rotation to it and also a substantial back and forth current. I was only in about 30 feet of water and I could see the ocean floor about 15-20 feet below me. Looking at the floor dramatically increased the vertigo and produced substantial nausea. I actually vomited into my regulator. I’m quite calm in somewhat stressful situations so I handled it just fine. My instructor and I calmly moved out of the current and then surfaced briefly to be sure everything was ok. We were then able to complete the remainder of the check out. Pretty interesting early experience.

[@R1verDaze]

any other interesting experiences since?

[@paulchambers360]

At 6:00 it looks like at least one diver (possibly the buddy) approaches to help, but gets affected/scared by the vortex. My main observation is that many of the divers are using split fins which often cannot generate as much force as solid fins. Great content/reaction videos, keep up the great work! (Ex Divemaster)

[@michaeltaylors2456]

Split fins are an abomination, and add fuel to the diving is for everyone fallacy

[@michaeltaylors2456]

@Orca Whale . They are useless for maintaining a position in the water. Useless for any kick style besides a straight flutter kick. It’s simply A gimmick for newbies, or the hydro *infirm among us that don’t want to put in the effort and time to be aquatically competent . Diving isn’t for everyone, no matter what PADI tries to tell us

[@Aurora70077]

@Michael Taylors I understand where you’re coming from because I agree that split fins allow divers to get propulsion even from terrible technique but I just think diving is the best way to learn to dive. It’s okay to suck at first as long as the goal is to improve technique over time. I’ve only ever used paddle fins but it’s okay to prefer either, I just don’t get the vitriol against split fins 😂

[@braxlucky5718]

Honestly at the start of the video it looks like they actually swim into the vortex to check it out

Recovering from a serious thumb injury but when healed am going to get my Open Water Certification and my wife is going to take a refresher course!

[@BryceGoodson]

My brother is a certified diver of some kind that I'm not exactly sure. He told me and our mother about how he almost died going into a cave once with a couple of friends, and how he was the last one leaving the cave after stopping in an air pocket. I somewhat appreciated the level of danger he was in when he told the story, but now I really know that I'm lucky to still have him in my life. He did not say if they were near a shore or in scuba gear when this happened. I think you guys are doing a great job of informing people about how to be prepared for the dangers of diving, and especially to be properly trained. I think it looks awesome, and if money were nothing I'd try it for sure.

Great video. --Also, I found yall a few days ago, subscribed, and have been binge watching! Yall are great. Truly, I love this channel. I RARELY comment.. like this may be my 3rd..ever! But I just had to say how awesome the content here is. Keep it up!!

[@ReptilesGeniales]

13:33 it looks to me like there are two people trapped in the vortex maybe 30 feet from each other. That’s probably why the other divers doesn’t want to come too close to the vortex cause what good can they do if they get trapped ALSO??! Nothing!!! So it’s wise for the others to wait for a better opportunity to reach out, maybe not approach when he is sinking but maybe when he starts to rise to the surface. I don’t know? What did the instructors in Palau tell you regarding vortexes, escaping one to be precise, Woody?

[@Julie-kq7pm]

I can't get over how much I truly enjoy seeing you guys! You gentlemen are so respectful of your craft. It's really amazing to see.

As an engineer and just a long time fan of science, I have wanted to learn how to SCUBA for a while, and I’ve learned to appreciate how difficult it is just from observation and study. The main issue I have always had is that the few instructors/insiders I’ve met have always seem egotistical. As you guys have pointed out often, that’s not ok!!!

Vortexes, drowning slowly, falling to the bottom, panic and flailing in dead ends, getting lost in the dark, dying, dying, and more dying. It's like watching a train wreck, I can't look away. But if you asked me if I want to see the wreck from inside the train, my answer is naw.... that's okay. I used to never want to take up diving because of sharks. Now I don't even need sharks.

What causes these crazy underwater vortex? What a fascinating phenomena of nature.

[@chriscoker7794]

Some vortices are caused just by the tide and the type of terrain going from larger to smaller inlets or vise versa and also deeper to shallower. Think about bottle necking for instance. I hope that may have helped answering your question. I'm sure that there are other reasons that I'm not aware of or mentioning. Maybe someone else will chime in for more answers.

To me it looks like they're trying to stay in it. I could be completely wrong here but it looks like they are having fun. The one guy is trying to stay in the vortex and allowing himself to spin in circles. It's almost like they're moving their selves into it and the guy up top is just filming it.

You've made cave diving something that I want to now pursue the training for, instead of just looking on in awe from the a rec diver's viewpoint. Keep it up, you both provide an amazing perspective on diving. These are the only "reaction" videos I watch.

Because of this channel, I'm getting into more water sports. Yesterday, I just went tubing for the first time, and next week, I'm about to go out on my friends water skiis and wakeboard. Next summer, I'm planning on surfing our Great lakes in michigan. Thank you Woody and Gus for giving me this interest and confidence to just get out on the water and GO FOR IT. Even if its not technically scuba (yet), I'm still inspired by the two of you. Thank you for introducing me to my dream. And who knows? Maybe Scuba will be on the menu for me sometime in my future!

Maybe??? DEFINITELY! Let's make it happen!

[@Great_Lake_Surfer]

@@DIVETALK You two will literally be the first I call when I'm ready for lessons! Not even kidding on that one

Wow I have been diving for 35 years and never seen or heard of this before. Thank you for sharing this. You never stop learning in the sport.

[@janegermanuik933]

Dudes, you are awesome. I've been stuck watching your videos 24/7, this is just another level! Thanks!

[@gt951]

Sorry I'm so late! Thanks for the content fellas. Appreciate the effort that goes into these videos ❤️

Another cool vid. Love how you guys are educating this non-diver. You’re able to put me in the dive somewhat and my heart rate increases. I always wanted to be a scuba diver and get certified, just never did. Thanks for having this channel. Just subscribed! Dive safe…

The random credit at the end of the video yous were watching caught me off guard "directed by Michael Hardman". 😂 A masterpiece.

[@HesBack420]

Only come across your channel a few days ago but I’m already obsessed with watching your videos, never dived before or watched diving vids but definitely glad KZbin recommended you guys to me, thanks for the great videos lads.

Baaack at it again with another videoooo!!! Yesss love when y’all stop and talk I love the dialogue!! That’s why we are here for the dialogue!!!!!

[@serbanradulovici2030]

Oau! What a display of nature's force! Although I've seen this video before, I still had a tantalizing experience over again, watching it. It really makes you feel humble! I think the diver had a pointer-stick in his hand... and it's probably exactly the dive guide ( possibly an inexperienced one, though ). That's probably why none of the other divers tried to help him, thinking that if the dive guide is in trouble, it must be that serious that the rest of them wouldn't stand a chance there. I find your comments on how to solve such a situation very reasonable and helpful. Thank you, guys!

I’m a fairly new sub, absolutely love learning from your channel, enjoying watching all your old videos, as a non diver I find this stuff absolutely fascinating and thank you for your knowledge!!

[@taylorhair4213]

As a non diver, really enjoying this content, I never thought myself comfortable to dive, but with you guys, I would for sure give it a go

[@jasesadventures2834]
