@DeltaPayne1 With the exception of the knots being tied @ 15 Feet, yes. This video was at 12 feet. The trunk line is also more taught and easier to tie onto. ~ Bryan
My guess was that he's waiting to be far enough from the surface, in order to avoid splashing with his feet when he turns upside down (one requirement for the test).
How do you submerge yourself underwater without disturbing the surface? I'm sure there is a lot of practice, but that is the coolest part of the video by far. It just seems like an impossible feat. The idea of tying a knot underwater at least sounds possible. Seriously though, how does one do that? I would be much obliged to anyone who at least does a rudimentary step by step instruction. I have access to a pool and plenty of time, I can't think of a situation where I need to be able to do it, but I would like to at least know how in case some strange situation arises.
Jason Fraser this is something that you'll learn in drown proofing. when underwtaer your lungs act as a flotation device when inflated, so she. you go under let the air out of your lungs to sink, if you get good at it you'll be able to do it without letting ALL the air out of your lungs, how much you can keep depends on your buyoncy and how competent you are in the water. it's the safe concept when you see us do the "bobs" when drown proofing, where our hands and feet are bound and we have to sink to the bottom of the pool push off, surface, and take a breath, then rinse and repeat. same concept. I also use this to increase lung capacity. I'll go to the bottom of the pool (12 ft.) and do sets of 50 4 count flutter kicks on the pool floor, this is necessary to remain flat on the bottom of the pool, try it out and you'll see it's very simple, at first you may have to let all the air out of your lungs to do it but as I said before the more competent you get with it the more air you can keep
Who's reading, the book CAN'T HURT ME by David Goggins?
me!
Hahah you got me 😂
me bro me

The Sea is the most adverse and challenging environment. I can only do this with the help of fins and perfect visibility. Thanks for the motivation.

I'm trying for an so contract now. And am currently a tree surgeon. So I know all these knots already, especially the bowline. That one is my life
Hey man, did you ever get a contract?
RAF † OWENS bro DORd in BO
How do u know
Very cool. Now just imagine how difficult underwater basket weaving is!!
I'm trying for an swcc contract, so thanks for the video bro!
Love your videos. Did you complete BUD/S?
My guess was that he's waiting to be far enough from the surface, in order to avoid splashing with his feet when he turns upside down (one requirement for the test).
probably clearing his ears (ear squeeze); decompression is on ascent with compressed air (SCUBA), not recommended with SCUBA.
do they teach you this at pre BUD/s?
@drizown LOL!! Can't believe I just now finally saw your comment!
~ Bryan
The diver pauses after the initial submersion on each descent. Is that a decompression of some kind?
Shamrck23 That's to clear, aka valsalva...
@drizown Hilarious... Don't know why I missed your response months ago LOL!
Thanks! Just missing the instructor hilarity and the "Fail!" shouted every few minutes :)
Isn't the Becket's bend wrong (the lines coming out from opposite sides)?
String from the swimsuit LOL!
David Goggins book brought me here
Whose head after listening to David Goggins talk about this in his book?

Jason Fraser it’s called a combat descent, you don’t need to breath out at all.
How the hell do they see without goggles
