THIS could Save your LIFE | MUST Watch for Metal Detecting and River Treasure Hunters

[@adventurearchaeology]

I have a Hookah setup and will only use it when I have another diver with me. Even in shallow water…….

Thanks Matt for being concerned about others.

thanks i hope many people see this i taught diving i find many divers can not swim with out fins thanks for sharing this

[@ancellsadventures]

Very valid concerns Matt. Another thing I would add is never dive alone! We all push the envelope, thinking I’ll be alright I do this all the time. I dive with a gas hookah system on my gold dredge and fill up every time I stop but with dredge systems we have a tank that acts as a reserve but I still don’t bank on it. With a battery system there isn’t a reserve as soon as the battery dies and it is instant your completely out of air. I’ve seen a large increase in these units being used in other activities as well. I’m glad you’re sharing the story and bringing it to people’s attention!

Thank you for sharing this! I think that a very popular person, like you, in the metal detecting community who is concerned about safety, is the best KZbinr you can ask for! Thank you!

[@GoneDiggin]

Wow, thank you

[@Keepinyoungdiggin]

Sorry my previous comment was so wordy. My concern is users are not always using a buoyancy device. The pony bottle with one could safe a life.

[@user-zq4ut2sr1w]

@GoneDiggin no, thank you! Saftey is #1 in any type of hobby, or anything

[@menotume]
