Diving For Dungeness Crab Gone Seriously Wrong- Emergency Ascent

The dive emergency I will never forget with Sam Sam, the Adventure Man. To see Sam Sam's video on the experience, check it out here: • Video
The Nomoc Experience also created a video on the whole trip to Washington! Check it out here: • Vanlife | Chaos Divers...
In this episode of Chaos Divers, Sam Sam, the Adventure Man, The Nomoc Experience, and I went to Mukilteo in Washington to dive for the Dungeness Crab. Our dive turned into a full-fledged emergency ascent to the surface.

The video has since been made private

Doesn't work

[@nancykitzinger3078]

Training is so important but practicing those situations is important too! There are so many things to remember when diving! It has to become second nature! Great job you two! Buddies!

[@saltymaam2046]

This is why I stay on dry land! So happy everything ended up fine and yes train, train, train!!!!! Stay safe guys!

[@JoshCantu]

i remember seeing ttis video, didn't realize you were there Jacob. scary moment. glad things went well. good job being aware of this situation. just popped up in my feed.

[@HITCH13]

Thats insane. Glad Sam was okay and good job Jacob for staying with him while ascending. I tip my hat to you buddy. Keep up the good work guys. Training is insanely important.

[@ChaosDivers]

Thanks yeah it was definitely an eye opener for me for sure

[@rosalinabulingot7979]

Wooh, that's scary seeing you Sam grasping for breath. I feel like it's suffocating and I don't know how to swim, let alone dive! 😩 I'm happy you're able to go up and live. Thank God! 😊 🙏😇

[@arthyland]

Thank God you were there with Sam Sam Jacob , buddy system is the way to go ... safety is golden. Be well ... stay safe ...

[@lynn_d]

No matter how experience of a diver you are, training is key. In situations like this, main thing is staying calm & focus. Use your training.So glad you're ok & safe Sam. And thank you Jacob for helping your fellow dive brother out. ♥️♥️

[@griminator-patty3901]

Wow!! Sam could have died. Very good lesson to know about! I love what Sam shared at the end, “Because I lived the crabs get to live too!” What a heart! 💗

[@ChaosDivers]

One of these days I’ll have fresh crab 😜

[@angel827jk]

Just watched Sams thank God he is ok

[@sharonmeans5860]

Omg thank God your ok 👍 That scared me and I was just watching ‼️ Sam we love you

[@ronkrueger-capt_koron6112]

Sam and Jacob, I know what it feels like to have to make an ascent like that. Many years ago, I was doing some sport diving while in the Air Force, and I don't know how, but my reserve had been pulled on my tank. This was before all the gauges and things used now with modern diving. All I had was a tank and there was a built in reserve with the valve. You pull the bar down to activate it and it would give you enough time to surface. As I mentioned, mine had unknowingly been pulled, and I completely ran out of air. I had to make an emergency ascent like that. I too had that training so I knew to exhale as I was going up, and to not go up too fast or I could get the bends. I was about 80 feet down. Honestly, I wasn't scared because of the training, but it could have been disastrous if I hadn't had it.

[@mattk8810]

Except he didnt have to ascend like that.

[@triciaarnold8852]

How frightening! Good way to make an important point too. I am so glad everything worked out ik.

[@calidazeable]

That scared me 😟 .. Praise God he’s safe .. May The Lord ALWAYS watch over all of your dives 🙌🏼

[@lynettetyrone7724]

So happy Sam is ok. Thank you Jacob for being aware.

[@Polkster13]

I'm a certified solo diver. about 20 years ago, I was on a solo night dive at 100 ft in Lake Travis, Texas and hit a cold spot that took my breath away. I sucked in on my regular and got nothing. My regular had apparently failed. I then made a very quick ascent to the surface, checked my gear, got my regulator working again, dropped back down to 30', stayed there for 10 minutes, came up to 15' for 3 minutes, and then surfaced and called the dive. Went home very thankful for my training and that I lived to see another day and hadn't damaged my lungs or gotten the bends. That dive freaked me out pretty good. Turned out, my wet suit was too tight and my weight belt was also cinched up too tight causing me to have difficulty breathing that deep underwater. I have since changed my diving configuration to a steel backplate and wing and a steel 95 cu in 3500 PSI tank. Now I don't dive with a weight belt and my rig doesn't constrict me anywhere. I also dive with a Zeagle Flathead 6 regulator which has never given me any issues.

“I lived so they get to live..” Best part of the video…!!!🦀🦀👼🏻

[@MichellePennada]

Holy crap! 🤦🏻‍♀️ soooo glad you are safe and your gear 🤿 🔦

[@jenniferw5095]

Great eye Jacob!!! Glad you are both okay. 💕🙏🙏🙏

[@StrandedLifeform]

I just recently started watching dive videos, didn't know these kind of channels were out there until AWP popped up in my feed. That was a frightening moment. I'm glad that you kept calm, reacted quickly & let your training guide you. Thankfully Jacob was there and ready to assist if things went further south. I liked the end when you decided that since God blessed & protected you, giving you another day, you returned the blessing to another of God's creations and released the crabs. 💕

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

OMG 😱. Sam I'm so glad that you are okay ‼️ that was too scary ‼️

[@Thathandytiger17]

Jacob and Sam, I know I’m repeating everyone’s same sentiments...but I’m glad you both made it back from your dive safely. No more close calls, ok guys?!

Stay safe dear friend! ❤️🙏

I'm so happy Sam was able to get to the surface safely. What a terrifying situation to watch! 😱 Glad you both are alright and safe! 🙏 I'm happy you were diving together. I can't imagine having this happen to anyone when they are diving alone. 😬 Training and keeping calm made a huge difference in the outcome. Too many people overlook the importance of proper training and safety measures. Thanks for sharing this video with your viewers as a teachable moment. I'm so proud of you both! Have a wonderful dinner. 😁

[@angelam8026]

I am so glad you guys have great training. I have heard you all say many times, to dive with a buddy but be ready to save yourself. Be ready for any emergency and don't go into water you are not prepared for. Getting certified doesn't mean you can jump into the Missouri or Mississippi river. As I always say.......BE SAFE. I do worry about the many new divers. I hope they all watched this and get more training and practice for emergencies. Thankful you were not in really deep water. Be safe. God is good!

[@ChaosDivers]

That’s 100% correct!!! Ease into stuff don’t be stupid and try to be a hero and think you’re gonna do something by yourself

[@debbief2882]

Got to visit that geo dome during my advanced OW PADI training, very cool. A beautiful spot to have an emergency! Also a good note for my future: full-face masks can make it difficult to get their reg back into place, especially in an emergency. I imagine it's even harder when wearing thick cold water gloves.

Oh so glad everything turned out well. Training, and practicing that training (especially what you don't use regularly).

PRAISE GOD you're BOTH ok!!! 🙏🙏🙏 With Sam ascending fast but Jake right with him, had they not known to expell all their air, it could've easily been a double tragedy. 😲😟 But ohhh sooo relieved that it went like it did n you're both safe!!! 🤗💟 That's one of my biggest fears, drowning, after losing a lifelong friend n schoolmate in a dive cert for under ice diving 30+ yrs ago in our small towns local lake. 😥 It was a terribly heartbreaking loss due to him being young and a popular n well liked young man in our close knit community. 💔😪 My dad had been his Scout leader when he was growing up n awarded him his Eagle Scout award and it devastated my dad as he looked on him as another son almost. 😓 So seeing Sam n Jake go thru this shook me up a bit even after all these yrs n I immediately thought of my friend Larry. 😢 Just goes to show how incredibly important proper training n gear are in this hobby!! 🏞🤿💝 Thank you for sharing your story so that others may learn to be cautious while diving n follow the lessons learned in dive courses!! 🥽💞🛐🙋‍♀️

I’m so happy you are both ok ❤️,,, In a way it’s maybe a good thing it happened with 2 experienced divers (not that I wanted it too happen) as it lets other out there who want to scuba dive see that it’s not a case of just buying the gear and getting in the water ! You need the training so you know what to do in these situations 🥰 I was surprised you both went back down again so soon, but I suppose it’s a bit like if you fall of the horse you get back on ❤️ again I am so so happy that you both are safe 💖💖
