This is AMAZING!! The under water video footage is unbelievable
Thank you so much!
Beautiful
Thank you so much!
We were on Malapascua in January of 2023. Very peaceful, relaxing island. We stayed at Blanco Beach Resort and would highly recommend it.
Wish to go back there too
I love that video
Wow I love it so much
I'm glad you like it! Check out Olsob !

Ganda..... ❤❤❤
The most cat like shark there is over the catshark lol. Awesome you were able to get so close to them you could probably count the people who've done that on your hands
Thank you!! Yes thresher sharks are shy in nature and it takes time and patience to slowly get close to them.
Great footage. I understand you can’t use lights when shooting the thresher sharks, but can you still have lights on the camera to light up other critters if the sharks aren’t close?
U can't use lights on that particular dive site however I dive other sites which is OK to use lights
Hope you had fun in Phils..
Wonderful place! Definitely will visit there again!
Napakaganda pala magdive talaga dyan sa Malapascua,how much per dive po?
Wow! This island is so overbuilt!!! Way too much construction for such a tiny island.
Glad I went in the 90’s before it was destroy its purity
Hey its not overbuilt. There aren't any vehicles on the island(no polution). Houses built are very traditional without heavy machinery. Its definitely worth the long way there. Local are extremely friendly and diversity and corals are very rich in marine life
Malapascua is definitely NOT over built, it is a very beautiful place. I will be going there again in May. Hello Malapascua.
I've just seen a few videos of you. Basically super nice and well done! Super underwater shots. I am a diver myself and to be honest I am very disappointed to see how you or divers around you hold on to corals or lie on them. Yes, I know sometimes there's no other way and yes, it's not so bad with rocks. Nevertheless, as a diver you should disturb the underwater world as little as possible. Especially with corals.
@Alex-ry3ug thanks alot Alex for the kind words. I didn't lay on corals or seabed. Tbh in malapascua everywhere is fire coral u can't lie there. and as a divemaster myself I hate people doing so too. I do sometimes uses 2 finger nails to stabilise myself against current. But if i cant do it ill just miss the shot. Its ok for me :) My rig is neutral buoyant hence if I don't touch my camera it neither goes up or down.. it just stay in mid air. To get extreme close to seabed shots is to be neutrally buoyant as a diver.. make sure nothing is hanging out and fins are not support onto anything. Once mastering neutral buoyancy anyone can be just 10cm above seabed or hover at ease. By then the person air could even last at least 80min before 50bar remaining. Hope this clarifies and hope you enjoy the video without disappointment :)
@@lazydivermel Hi, thanks for the clarification! That's very true, sometimes you have to stabilize yourself slightly with one finger. And I completely understand the point about being just above the ground. Then it just looked like that to me in some of the videos. I've been diving in Malapasqua and Moalbol myself and was sometimes horrified at how divers treat the environment at both dive sites. Primarily because of a lack of diving experience and lack of knowledge.
Hi which dive sites did you go to?
Hi it's a small island there is only 1 dive site to observe thresher shark
@@lazydivermelyour so lucky you know how to dive underwater me cannot
@geraldineanzon9636 never too late to learn!
@@lazydivermel soon because I will go home for vacation ❤️❤️❤️I’m your new friend 😂
@geraldineanzon9636 sure! Check out my other philiphines diving videos too! Diving inspire me in many parts of my life!
Nice video! I am planning a trip to Malapascua next March and I found your video and content informative. Can you use your video lights with the Thresher Sharks?
Nope can't use strobe or video light at the tresher shark point . Thank u so much
@@lazydivermel and you did not use a red filter either. How much post processing did you have to do with the videos? Also, what is the depth where the thresher sharks are?
@shotsbyscott6243 quite shallow less than 18m I guess.. as for post processing yes it's painful without lights.. but because its shallow it's easier with sunlight
@@lazydivermel The GoPro does not work well at 18m without lights is what I have found. Have you tried a red filter? Also, found red filters at this depth made the scene to dark and had to raise the ISO to a high level which made the video too grainy and unusable for my taste.
@shotsbyscott6243 sorry for the late reply. you see.. for red filter it cuts even more light which slow down the gopro shutter.. if I'm not using lights I'll just post process and pray.. haha but sometimes u see where is the sun make sure it's behind you.. as for most of my dives I uses video lights and get as close as possible.. video lights won't work more than 3m. Hence I use AOI lens wide angle lens to let me get even closer.. once u are 0.5m away from subject and using lights it will turn everything true to life colors.. u don't need red filter at all.. secondly all videos need to color correct in post because gopro tends to look green in water.. hence in post u need to pull down the green and increase blue a little and red offsets. Currently I'm trying red filter on gopro and blue filter on my video lights
Amazing Video! Mind to share about your video light model? And how does it compared to TrustFire DF50?
Looking for light setup on my GoPro for leisure recording yet not making a hole on my bank account...
Many thanks!
Hi there thank you! Im using DF50 for this video. And have been using it for 2 years already. So far the pros are its durable (if u replace the ball mount to a screw and ball mount 2pc set). Type C charging. Bright for close focus wide angle.
And the cons are that.
1. The original 1pc ball mount might break if you over tighten it and once its broke u probably going to end up buying a new one set
2. It is heavy u need float arms to compensate
3. Still need to color correction a fair bit for the videos.
@@lazydivermel Thanks for the detailed explanation! Sounds like DF50 is a good option for a casual shooter like me!!!
@@JellyJofool yes indeed its a good option. Just dont forget to buy and replace the original ball mount. With those 1inch ball mount with adjustable 1/4 inch screw (2 separate piece). Thank me later. The orignal ball mount if u overtighten it with your hand you can break it and it is stuck inside the torch forever
@@lazydivermel 🫡🫡🫡 Roger that sir! Really looking forward to try it out and of course with new ball mount!!
@@JellyJofool looking forward to your videos!
Do they accept first time divers??
I don't think so. Minimum padi advanced open water diver.
Why do threser sharks look like they overheard something they were not supposed to hear?
Haha they are really cute with those big eyes. Generally thresher sharks are very shy. Hence when they did not see me.. I swim forward.. when they are looking I breathe out very little bubble, stay low to sea bed and don't look eye to eye.. this is how I get close to them
Come on bro don’t be standing on the coral
Hi I don't stand or touch anything. It's all about getting neutral buoyancy and hovering to get smooth shots
