I have never thought about diving in my life but you divers as a community,you seem so wholesome and caring for one another and there’s something weird about this it’s therapeutic entertaining and also very very informational good job all around.be safe everyone ♥️

OMG,...I felt every second of these poor lady's panic 😲... My Heart goes out to her.

[@TritonsRealm]

Yeah, she was undoubtedly panic-stricken, but to her credit, later in the day, she got back in the water with a dive instructor and had a wonderful time. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Awesome collaboration with Gus and Woody! I appreciate videos like this which help us learn how to handle ourselves when problems come up during a dive. Very cool!

[@TritonsRealm]

Thank you! We had a blast talking about diving with Gus and Woody, and we couldn’t agree more, we learn the most when problems arise. So glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks again for watching!

Thank you!! 👍

[@mikesbigadventures194]

Awesome video and a great surprise. After reading Under Pressure by Garth Locke I firmly believe we all should talk about the issues we encounter and the mistakes we made so others can learn and we can all be safer. The best teacher is experience, preferably someone else’s.

[@Yggdrasil42]

Well said. Every diver would benefit from reading Under Pressure by Gareth Lock. I'd also recommend Close Calls by Stratis Kas. It's a good reminder that we're all human, even our dive heroes.

[@TritonsRealm]

Thanks! So glad we could surprise you with this one, and we certainly couldn't agree more. Experience is the best teacher. We've got a lot more diving planned for the next year and hope to keep problems at a minimum, but either way, we'll have the cameras rolling and will be sure to share and discuss any issues/mistakes that we encounter. Safe diving!

[@TritonsRealm]

Thank you for the recommendation. I haven't read Close Calls by Stratis Kas yet, but it's now on the list.

[@remcovanhal6336]

ohw cool! Got a new channel to follow now :). Thanks for visiting the guys. Very cool video to learn from :)

Thanks. It’s a great skill to practice, because when you have to use it, you want it to go smooth. 👍

[@helenfelton8804]

Hel here!Big, early follower of Gus and Woody..... thought you were rivals so didn't watch,but when I gave you a try you are big fans too,huh?! Diving community is a great one, full of good people so even non-divers are attracted.Im so interested I will even watch technical posts like assembly of gear!This was a brilliant idea and just a thought,if you mentioned the Dive Talk fellahs you may get more views....I felt guilty about betraying them(but then I'm a bit of a softy). wishing you luck,love and safe dives xx

[@TritonsRealm]

Helen, thanks for giving us a try! We view ourselves more as colleagues than competitors. The diving community is full of a lot of wonderful people that share the same goals of elevating the sport of scuba diving, increasing overall safety, and raising awareness of the amazing world underwater. We’re big fans of Gus and Woody and enjoyed visiting with them to talk about diving for awhile. We’ll be seeing them again in a couple weeks at a trade show, so there may be more crossover content to come. Thanks for watching and commenting.

Hi guys my two favorite dive channels hooking up AWSOME ! the guy leading with the scooter must have a knife or something Pulling his compass if you were going in circles It was good on the boat You were the last guys in you remained calm while they were working the emergency Woody made a couple of points let the point guy do his thing and if a panicking diver isn't panicking he is drowning I liked the look on your face when you were out of air you exhaled and nothing came back ! (Reminds me of the old j valve days when the valve got accidently tripped and there was nothing ) Excellent video and informative it was pointed out when you are out of air dont panic you can still come up A while back I saw a video by gus and woodywith a rescue diver and he had to put weight on a body to get him out of a cave Here on the great lakes there is a shipwreck you go down thru the skylight of the engine room there is a pile of bones sitting by a chair It's been assumed by everybody the engineer was sitting in his chair when the ship sank after watching the video with gus and Woody that's not the case he would have been stuck to the ceiling and that is where he settled All you guys have a great day!

[@TritonsRealm]

👍 So glad we could bring your two favorite dive channels together. We had a blast talking with Gus and Woody. Yeah, I was very surprised to run out of air in the shark cage. With all the redundancy they have built into the system it never occurred to me that running out of air was even a possibility. Just goes to show people you never really know. Equipment failure is a real thing and can happen anytime. I never had the pleasure of diving with a j valve, but now I can certainly relate.

[@kristy6705]

This is a great reaction video. That lady that panicked would definitely definitely be me. I have so much appreciation for all of y'all . Brave, knowledgeable and so kind. Do y'all ever dive near Cocoa Florida?

[@TritonsRealm]

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed the video. Sometimes anxiety can build, and panic sets in. However, it was nice to see that she worked one-on-one with an instructor after she got out, then got back in the water, and had a great time. We haven't made it to Cocoa, FL yet, but we have more diving planned in FL for next year. So maybe soon. If you like, you can check out our video on diving in Boynton Beach, FL, at the link below. We had an incredible encounter with a sea turtle. Thanks again for watching. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHusfJx4nLp2pdE

[@kristy6705]

I agree her and the instructor as well as everyone involved handled that situation very well and I'm happy to hear she got back in the water. Thank you for responding to both of my questions.

[@angelkowalski4846]

The rest looked okay even though the out of air diver did not blow bubbles

[@TritonsRealm]

Yep, that was a good point about blowing bubbles. Even though I was only a few feet below the surface it would have been better not to fully hold my breath. Particularly during the ascent. Thanks again for watching! 👍😀

[@rainystormcloud7499]

Hey, how comfortable was that thing to ride?? I mean,..was there any drag like when you ride a bike, causing you to fall back?

[@TritonsRealm]

Good question. It was fairly comfortable to ride once I got going, but it was a little crazy to try and control it on/off and adjust speeds. Mainly because I also had a camera in my hands. You can feel the water rushing by and there is a bit fo drag, but if I stayed level it felt pretty good. Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍

@@TritonsRealm ...and TY for taking time to answering my question. I've learned so much from this and previous Dive Talk videos. It's a great way for landlocked Peep's like me to enjoy & appreciate the liquid realm of the Sea...🌊

[@WMCLComputers]

Does that dive was in Agudilla in Crash boat? If is that site or El Natural those should have been an easy dive for a local...

[@TritonsRealm]

😃 Yep, that’s El Natural. It should have been easy navigation, but once we left the reef behind we were going in circles and on a DPV we were covering some ground. Overall we were relatively safe the entire time, but we thought we’d include it in this video because getting lost under water is relatively common for newer divers. In the end, I was mainly just disappointed I didn’t get to see any of the pier there at crash boat beach as learning that site was my main motivation for diving there. But we’re going to try and make it back there in December or January. So we’ll have another shot at it.

[@WMCLComputers]

@@TritonsRealm from there to the left side if you start fro the side of crashboat to the left side and you have the DPV you can hit El mueye de azucar that it has wreckage if the old machinery used by the Spanish to export sugar. And if you find someone to take you also yo can visit the B29 Bomber wreck or a tough boat but that on is keep of beyond recreational limits.

[@TritonsRealm]

@@WMCLComputers Awesome! Thanks for the advice.

[@SFROutdoors]

32:27 why do you have octo under your arm?

[@TritonsRealm]

Great question! In this video my BCD is an AquaLung Dimension. The Dimension has a little pocket on the side to hold the octo. All you do is put a little bend in the hose and tuck the hose in the pocket so it’s secure, but it can also be easily and quickly taken out if needed. The end result however is that the octo kind of sits under or next to my arm. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@SFROutdoors]

@@TritonsRealm interesting, I as a newer diver have never seen that before. I wonder about the kinking of the hose and long-term durability, but it seems like it would make you more streamlined.

[@TritonsRealm]

@@SFROutdoors The built in pocket works pretty nicely, and I don’t worry about doing any damage to the hose because we’re using Miflex hoses which are very flexible and durable. These days it seems like there are a 1000 ways to secure your octo. As long as the octo can be easily located, quickly released, and stored so it’s nice and streamlined, I think it comes to personal preference on how to secure it. Appreciate the comment, I think this is how we all learn from each other. 👍

[@kristy6705]

Ok hookah diving? Surface air? Could y'all please explain what these two things mean⁹? Thanks 😁

[@TritonsRealm]

Great question! Hookah diving, also known as surfaced supplied air, is a type of diving where the air is delivered to someone underwater via a long hose from a compressor located on a float or, in this video, a boat on the surface of the water. This system does not require traditional scuba gear. It allows divers to stay underwater for long periods, and in many applications, does not require the person to be certified as a scuba diver. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching, and if you'd like to see more about our dive with great white sharks while using surface supplied air, you can check out the video below. Thanks again. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpKTgqOmn66UsKs

[@never2old-sd638]

Who the heck was the guide in Puerto Rico ?, I got certified on that beach and I’ve done several dives on that beach if one knows how to use a compass there is no reason to get lost even in low visibility 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@TritonsRealm]

Fully agree. I think it was a combination of going to fast on the DPV and “chasing” the compass. Along with a little ego, “I dive here a lot so how could I possibly be lost”.

[@never2old-sd638]

@@TritonsRealm i feel embarrassed, 🤦🏻‍♂️😂

[@never2old-sd638]

Did you get to dive the pier after all?

[@never2old-sd638]

I was just there last month and I also got bad visibility on the pier

[@TritonsRealm]

@@never2old-sd638 No, I only had a day left in the area, but we’re hoping to make it back in December or January. 👍

[@angelkowalski4846]

Disagree with the message that it{s okay to go down without your buddy with 700 psi. Unnecessary risk, low biz, good surface conditions. What message are you sending to the newly certified divers. WRONG MESSAGE, not okay to separate from your buddy.

[@TritonsRealm]

Great comment! The message to new divers is that sometimes the dive guide is wrong and that as a diver, you should be situationally aware and, if needed, self-reliant. In this particular case, the dive guide wanted to descend again to extend the dive as long as possible in the hopes of seeing part of the pier. However, after descending, he took off on the DPV in the wrong direction. This created an immediate choice for me. 1) Do I try to catch him in low visibility with only 700psi knowing he's headed in the wrong direction. 2) Do I go in the correct direction towards shallow water and shore alone. I opted for 2, and knowingly went in the opposite direction from the dive guide. The reasoning was threefold. One, I would personally be safe near shore. Two, I would be on the surface in shallow water and could spot him when he surfaced. Three, if he needed assistance, I could enlist help from others on the beach. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@angelkowalski4846]

@@TritonsRealm thank you for replying, good points, should be highlighted in the video = call off a dive = stay with your buddy
