Diving Down To Recover A Deaf Couple's Lost GoPro & iPhone!

[@natashaphillips4625]

From my point of view on top of the water, this was probably one of the most heartbreaking and nerve racking dives. I watched her dropped her phone and instantly become disheartened especially after 2+ hours of searching in the wrong spot. I’m so thankful we were able to find both the phone and the GoPro. Vanessa’s laugh is probably the most heartwarming sound I have ever experienced. So happy we could help these incredible people. 💙🖤

Who the F gives this a thumbs down? I honestly get the whole trolling thing in most cases but come on... This guy goes out and does this stuff for free and seems to genuinely enjoy helping people. Keep up the good work @merman mike. Your videos are really enjoyable. I'd probably go toss something of value in a lake near where you are in NorCal but I'm down in SoCal just north of LA. Cheers man.

[@MermanMike]

Thank you, I appreciate that! lol There's 1 person who makes sure to dislike every video I post, as soon as I upload them, but hey you can't make everyone happy!

[@NightMarauder09]

@@MermanMike Haha! So true. And in all walks of life, too. You and your gf seem like really good people. I meant to say I'd toss something in a lake in NorCal just to hit you up and say "Hi." in my original comment. That's what I get for commenting on YT while at the office...oops

Beard people say that you're crushing the dread pirate beard. Nice! Suspenseful and earnest video Mike. This is really cool!

Mike and Natasha tell your Parents that Sacramento thanks them for raising such beautiful souls, the word. Needs more people like you

[@natashaphillips4625]

linda rogers this is incredibly nice. Thank you! 💙

[@MermanMike]

Thank you so incredibly much! I definitely give most of the credit for the man that I have become today to my beautiful grandmother who raised me!

[@golfcheer]

So glad you found that couples stuff! Thank you for picking up trash. I only watch you guys that search for treasure and trash! Some just grab the treasure. I hate seeing them swim past the trash. Thanks again!

[@pettyeddie2000]

OUTSTANDING outcome !!!! Getting to see the items given back to the owners is what makes these videos special. Stay safe !!!

[@MermanMike]

Thank you so much! This was one of my favorite dives for sure!

[@exploringwithamission]

Great recovery, rewarded with a sweet pair of oakleys 💙🐠🤿🇦🇺dan

[@MermanMike]

One day we'll find some treasure together! Just have to wait for Corona to chill out and me to be able to afford to fly to Australia lol

[@laureenphilipp1991]

Great job! I love it when you get excited about finding cool things!

[@tmower0824]

Incredible! Absolutely love that you refuse to give up, and the dedication obviously pays off. Loved the huge smiles and warm laughter all around. Keep up the great work!

[@MermanMike]

Thank you so much for the kind words and all the support you have given me since I started this as well! I wouldn't of been able to capture those beautiful smiles nearly as well if it wasn't for your extremely generous GoPro 7 birthday gift!

[@Snorkelpirate]

I feel like this is the best video yet. You didn't find a lot of other stuff, but like you could hear how excited she was and I could feel how relieved they were to have their stuff back and you pushed on for a long time and didn't give up man. Like here latley things seem so tense between people and kinda dark, but you shine as an example of how we should all be and help each other out. You are super awesome and Hopefully by next year I can get my cert and like idk I like wanna come hang with you man cause your way too cool bro. Much love from the pirate! Keep being awesome

[@MermanMike]

This was such an extremely nice comment man! It had me smiling from ear to ear while reading it to Natasha! Thank you for your support and positivity since pretty much day 1!

[@Snorkelpirate]

@@MermanMike Your welcome bro. I love it you always get me itching to do it myself. Well more than just snorkeling and free diving. Lol You just always seem so genuine and super passionate about helping people and cleaning up, gets me pumped up bro. 🔥

[@wholman8159]

love you Merman Mike

[@MalkieGerl]

First view! Wooooo! WOOOO!

[@MermanMike]

I see what you did there lol Thank you so much for watching!!

[@MalkieGerl]

@@MermanMike So happy you found both of those! What an awesome day!

[@OriginalGabriel]

Dude! Totally helped them a few times during my time at REI; such a great couple! You missed a good PSA moment though; would have been a nice touch (for their community) to have the video with no sound, just "bubbles", "sounds of excitement", etc. subtitles; in order to let others, with hearing, understand what their community experiences. Regardless, well done; sounds like it was a tough one.

[@MermanMike]

Small world! lol Thank you!

[@TrapBooks]

You got an Instagram bro?

[@MermanMike]

I do indeed! The handle is @merman_mike

[@billyhuestiedye]

Super cool guys, but it seems a little insensitive to make a point of these folks being deaf in your title It also might benefit you to take a navigation as well as search & recovery courses. You'll gain quite a bit of knowledge that can help in your searches. Stay safe out there

[@MermanMike]

Not insensitive, just informative to let people know that this recovery presented challenges I have not faced before while searching for someone's valuables. I also ran the title by them to make sure before posting the video and they had absolutely no problem with it at all.

[@billyhuestiedye]

@@MermanMike excellent. I can see how that would present some challenges for sure. Keep doing the good work 🤙

[@MermanMike]

Thank you so much! They defenitely made it so much easier with how kind and patient they were!
