Your footage is just as good, if not better than that of mainstream media. Your content is raw and full of calming experiences that are good for the mind and soul.

[@eman4013]

Perfectly said bro couldn't agree more

[@MacBeamish]

Better and better every time. The effort you are putting into your shots and editing is clearly visible. I really enjoy the vibe of your videos. I can feel the love you have for the Moana and everything living in it. You are a true custodian and example of how to care for, enjoy, and preserve NZ's unique marine environment. Thanks Ollie

[@thor_6886]

Going bananas out there, mate. Stunning footage and much respect for the way you get a thrill from the whole experience, soaking in the amazing wildlife encounters around you as much as the fishing. Won't be long and the channel will explode, if there's any justice in KZbin land

[@connielasher3126]

Absolutely outstanding Ollie. Your videography is impeccable. Calming choice of music perfect. The quality of your filming and editing skills now match your dive/outdoorsman skills. I Continue to love this channel. You deserve ten times the viewership. Thanks for taking us along.

[@HayesDriveProductions]

That whale footage is just breathtaking. What a planet we live on!!!

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- Good mix of music ! That's why the whales came.. they were vibin` 🎶 🎵 🐋

[@FNMAD]

Incredible footage. Love it.❤

[@balladmotion3976]

lool, the part when Ollie cranked the knock up in the boat! 😂🎵🎶

[@debramage739]

Ollie the whole video was amazing. The whales outstanding, and the lovely dolphins. And the cray and that kingy , what a feast. Thank you 😊

[@teeess1517]

[@TAKfishingadventures]

Amazing video Ollie! Some insane footage👍

[@Desntroy]

Unreal!! Nice one Ollie -Appreciate your attitude toward leaving plenty in the ocean for the next trip. Keep it up!

[@francispou274]

thanks for sharing

[@mattweinberg1335]

Those scenes, that music and that light ...wow!

[@koga_ytb6855]

🐐 Ollie your vids are 🔥

[@msbuilding2806]

Out of all the awesome scenes we got to witness in this video, the way that 20+lb snapper hit the breaks a millimeter before that rock was unreal 😂

[@jamieking6507]

YEAH BOII!! That looked freaking fantastic.

[@Mitchn0]

Unreal footage. You experienced something incredible mate. Chur from Germany

[@skitzzhydro9842]

Can’t wait to watch this one mate, been on a binge recently getting into season!

[@calivlogsdownunder]

Awesome episode. How good 🤙

[@MrTudali]

Captured nicely @olliecraig-primalpursuit, exactly like it can be - Beautiful!

[@terrorfirmamusic]

Man to encounter a blue whale just out there in nature doing its thing would have to be one of the top experiences you could ever have- stoked for you mate!

[@kiwiladjoe4378]

That’s one of the best vids you have put up. Loving it.

[@Mark_Paasman]

I’ll have the orcas now! 😂😂😂❤ you go bud! Manifest the shit out of it.

[@samual3467]

You must have been tempted to jump in with the whales Ollie. Serenity in all directions. Thank you. Regards Sam.

[@XTRDAE86XJakeX]

Absolutely epic footage Ollie! You've got some unreal footage of those whales and bait fish. So rad, that you can bring these moments to people who have no idea this type of action/behavior goes on in the ocean! Enjoyed every minute of the video. BTW The sinus squeeze is pretty painful when you dive with any type of head cold or congestion. Tried it a few times and swore I'll never do it again😂. The chances of forced equalization causing more damage is pretty high. Stay safe out there, and happy diving. Can't wait to see what's next! Cheers mate!

[@asafloml1-asaf-yaari]

WOW...epic scenes...cant you go out twice a week? We are getting weaker between your vids mate..💜.

[@GeorgeNepe]

Massive Ollie that surely is special buddy way to go

[@DaveRipia]

You will never forget this moment, it is very majestical and special! thank you for sharing with us viewers!

[@blessedbeauty2293]

[@oscarweasley2618]

Amazing

[@LONGLIVESOSA]

SUCH AN EPIC TRIP AND FOOTAGE!! 😍 CONGRATS!!

[@Kumukarl]

I bet those blue whales were massive! Freaking kingy on the skeeprong, legend! Unreal video!

[@tsankotsankov760]

Indeed one if the best episodes, not only on your channel but in general. Amazing footage and all went so well.

[@marcdelabry7022]

Full on natgeo bro! you could easily be the person they send to crazy places to capture moments like this!

[@outkasted1689]

The next David Attenborough (not sure if that's spelt correctly)

[@OXSEnterprises]

First class bro chur

[@richardgould240]

What a treat seeing the Blue Whales feeding. Brilliant video Ollie.

[@spffishty8510]

Incredible video mate. Stoked for you being able to witness those whales! Also, madlad 😂 for pushing thru your sinus issues - you got it done tho!

[@beaupearson5254]

Pretty sure it’s a Brydes whale Ollie! Not a Blue

[@cetalfauna]

I missed the Bryde's (I may have to watch again). Saw blue whales and fin whales feeding. Cool vision!

[@thesedate3385]

Bravo my friend very nice video…. Türkiye den selamlar :)

[@idratherbeoutdoors715]

What a trip Ollie. Amazing footage of the pigmy blue whales. Congratulations on the challenge of the kingfish on the handspear.

[@actiaint]

Those whales are out of this world - most intriguingly beautiful whales Ive seen - great footage! - The lighting!!!

[@JulianDives-0711]

This is outstanding. This channel is my favorite thing to watch. Can’t wait for the next episode tomorrow! Keep it up and dive safe.

[@CameronSmithDiving]

Amazing whale footage. So cool to see the fine details of the blowhole (nose?) opening and closing as the creature breathes. Can't believe how close those snapper let you get to them at night! Polespearing a kingy is nuts! You made it look pretty easy mate. Amazing shot placement! Guessing that was a long time coming? Well done!

[@lnegron63]

Thank you very much for this amazing video. Just watching the whales and dolphins in the video took my breath away. Again, thank you very much.

[@adamjoshuahughes3971]

Man, Kinda jealous! Haven't been out for nearly a year now cause I'm waiting on getting an 'ectopic tooth' removed from the floor of my left sinus which is mucking up my entire face 😞Should be sorted soon though. I saw 4-5 pigmy's yesterday out on my kayak up here round Whangārei (usually go out 5kms or so from Taiharuru estuary). Wonder if they were the same? I really need to invest in camera gear/drone lol

[@FushyTacoFngaz]

Absolutely amazing footage of those whales, and the schools of trev's getting smashed😮 another great vid, thank you my bro😊😊😊

[@travischaplin6272]

Humble request from a dad who loves to watch with his kids. If you wouldn't mind editing out the odd S-bomb 😅 bit of a shock for little ears. Thank you for amazing content and inspiring my kids to find their own adventure

[@kennytumanuvao2042]

Love it Olli ❤ Keep them coming uso🔥🔥🔥 Sell those videos online and you’ll make money of it too my bro👍The Blue whales❤️❤️🔥🔥

[@anthonypoole6507]

Great cinematography Nature turning it on ❤ Swam with whale sharks and humpbacks Ya never forget

[@thor_6886]

Is that a huge kingie on the deeper right hand edge of the trevally school at 22.31 - and another one swimming away at 2 o'clock? The high drone shot just before you get in the water...Oh, you mentioned it in the footage just after you got your kingie...oh well, I'd already commented, haha

[@olig1851]

that drone footage of the whales was beautiful

[@hebjdhdhdbbshshshshs9119]

Hey mate! Ive been watching for like a year or a bit more now and love your vids. I love the underwater footage as it calms me so much when your spearfishing. But ive also really really liked the hunting with the rifle vids. Any chance your going to make another hunt?

[@pmoneyz5592]

Hell of a start to the vlog mighty blue real mean kiwi Moana fa'sho cuzy Sup2 from Sydney Australia churr up my bro

[@royc84]

Fantastic videos you is namber one 😉💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪

[@DionSarrimanolis]

Awesome footage, I thoroughly enjoyed it all the way from South Africa. Well done.

[@tayaray]

This may seem a silly question, but at night with no sunlight, how do you know which way is up if you are heavily weighted or have neutral buoyancy?

[@Powerhead1000]

Make sure to put Sudafed sinus medicine in your dive bag. It helps to take one before bed. One in the morning.

[@kayb4995]

Am I the only one notices Ollie has access to almost any type of gun, and he uses a traditional 2 band pipe gun. Yeah, that’s right.

[@shanewright341]

Thanks for sharing - there are two large whale species - Blue and Fin - in your pics.

[@zinger241]

I was in that area two weeks ago and a pod of 20 orca came within 10m of the rocks where I was fishing , and I could see big whales in the distance

[@andrewmanton-y5o]

Unreal Ollie that was a great episode can’t wait for next next one Nice hand spearing mate 👍👍🍺

[@elmo690]

Mate how can u dive at night all alone lol question do u get afraid,? i guess ur so use to diving , i get freaked out if i cant see anything in deep water , but u can do all this alone u make it comfortable to watch,

[@mrFunkyGod]

The whales and dolphins are letting you know you’re accepted

[@erwinblancostv]
