[@chewyc9580]

That was too short 😅. Anyway, you can record to 30 mins?

[@diddybopist]

you guys make life look so simple and amazing. ..ty

[@dianapurdy7755]

It's great that Indonesia has kept this area natural and unfished, I'm glad somebody in the world cares enough to look after our beautiful earth.

[@chrisgolfer7528]

Bloody hell mate, you have certainly put the cherry on the icing with this video. The underwater diversity was stunning to watch and to see creatures going about their business was world class photography. Cannot wait for the next one!

[@davidmonk4949]

Brilliant video, easily some of the best underwater footage you've ever given us. Thanks so much!

[@bryantfitzmorris]

Wow. Thank you. So unbelievably beautiful.

[@Treatiesalways]

Fabulous - but too short! The corals, creatures, fish! Stunning, make these longer as there is so much to look at! Thank you.

[@choopatroopa4445]

Those close up shots of the different creatures on the coral shelf were insane! VERY cool.

[@murup4R4]

You guys have been killing it lately! Keep up the awesome work guys!

[@martinzipfel7843]

I've been to Raja Ampat for a 2 week dive trip about 7 years ago. It was absolutely incredible and I had the same feelings about the place you described. Good to see that it hasn't changed.

[@philharnett2884]

Best underwater production values I have ever seen. Great work Strick, and the team behind you. Do you have a team, or do you do this? I watch all your content. Love it.

[@BacktoBasics]

I edited this one mate, glad you enjoyed it :) Cheers, Strick

[@brendanhowley2964]

Sounds weird to say but just seeing stuff like this makes u feel happy and privileged to be alive to witness it haha. Makes me want to dive again asap

[@TheLefaLife]

I'm a simple man. I see a B2B notification, I tune in.
