Check your gauges far more frequently during wreck diving. It's very easy to get distracted by cool stuff. Take 2 GOOD torches with you. Lock down your flappysnag stuff. Watch your head on bulkheads. I found out the hard way! Careful where you put your feet. Too easy to get a fin trapped. Again, found out the hard way! Make sure your camera is on a full charge. There are so many good photo opportunities on a wreck. Watch your depth. It's very easy to misjudge depth on a wreck and find yourself at 70+ feet when a few seconds earlier you were at 50. I've dived the Kittiwake off Grand Cayman loads of times but never take it for granted.
Thanks for another set of great tips. Any chance you can give us a video detailing how to best deal with currents? Not many are really covering this very important topic enough…
Another tip while going through a wreck, use your hands and pull yourself through when you can. Less silt kicked up, and move faster and more efficiently.
A very good sentiment. Testosterone toxicity is a major diver killer and that there’s a huge discrepancy between male and female diving accident fatalities sure does ring a bell. I want to grow old so I’m diving like a girl! 😅😂
thank you Mark for a great points of wreck diving - anyway can you make some video about theory of escaping from sinking ship? It is certainly better to leave the ship before it sinks but if you fall asleep or you have bad day... I am thinking about all factors - there can be some "air pockets" but the water pressure will equalize air pressure so you can suffer from decompression sickness after while when you are trying to find way out. If you know how deep you are when is better try to escape and when is impossible to escape .. like 20m is OK, 50m is so so, 100m is ideal time to have the last drink :X What are do's and don'ts? Of course exhale during ascent. But should I think about the ascent speed etc?
Despite the click bait, you will never see any underwater footage on these clips, just the same neophyte sitting at a desk and pontificating through his beard.

Just hold onto a line
Wow. Not one of those tip videos which repeat the obvious, really sound advice there. Thanks! 👌🏼🤙🏼
nice to see you back!!! how about a video on how to navigate or lead a dive without a compass :)
dont
If your diving wrecks in the uk they sometimes have fishing nets on them. Sometimes you don't see them because they hanging above you.

I prefer to go shipwreck diving with an experienced guide. Especially when diving in unfamiliar wrecks. I won’t let my ego be the cause of my demise.

Sage advice
Never try to memorize your way in and out. Always run line.
My tips.Use and pay for a local guide. Don’t touch or take. The only thing to take are pictures.

Strobe the shot line in case you lose orientation.
I still can't make up my mind if l would like to do wreck course or not :/
If you ever want to do the advanced wreck course you HAVE to do the basic wreck one.
Very much worth getting
3:30 usefull ? you mean mandatory ?
and get qualified advance wreck diving .
Sense of direction in a wreck... not a thing. Use a line and cookies.
When in a wreck, pull yourself through the wreck with you hands, you wont kick up silt.
What if I found gold doubloons?

@@diverguy3556 Apologies. Its easy to just take pot shots anonymously. Your diving advice is accurate and varied. Have a nice day
@@erichall7253 I mean you weren’t entirely wrong though… this guy explains well, but damn. Give us some actual dive footage!!!
