    This video is about an unfortunate event that happened on April 6th, 1969.
    On April 6th, 1969, a group of friends make their way to the City of Mount Gambier on the southern tip of South Australia to enjoy a relaxing day at Kilsby sinkhole. 3 of them would enter the water, and attempt to dive to 60 meters, or 197 feet. But only 1 of them would return.
    This is their story.

    You should use different background music. Using the same music as Scary Interesting makes you appear to be a copycat. Especially when you are covering the same type of content.
    If you hoped no one would notice, you are incorrect.

    Correction, air embolism is not decompression sickness (not the bends) it means they ascended while holding their breaths and caused their lungs to burst. Possibly they ran out of air and tried to swim up holding their breath but you can't do that you must exhale. Inexperienced divers too deep, no doubt suffering nitrogen narcosis forgot their basics and died because of it.

    • @UnfortunateEvents
      @UnfortunateEvents  Рік тому +15

      Thanks for the comment! I'll be sure to update my notes, but from what I read I thought the bends were a form of air embolism as noted by the NHS. I'll make sure to dive deeper into the subject, no pun intended.

      No, unfortunate events understand is correct. An air embolism is disolved gas (nitrogen) coming out of solution in the blood and blocking an artery. Typically in the coronary arteries that would cause sudden death. The gas is dissolved when breathing it at pressure when at depth and surfacing to quick causes it to come out of solution when the pressure drops. This is colloquially also known as the bends. It can also happen in other areas of the body that doesn't result in death, like body tissue and joints where it causes pain.
      The lungs "popping" from breathing pressurized air and holding your breath while surfacing would be called baro trauma.

      @@jameshughes525 Once in a while I hear a diver state what I would hazard to guess is a thought held by many divers. That diving is more enjoyable than it would be due to nitrogen narcosis. Or something to that effect, that a decent amount of the enjoyment factor is because of nitrogen narcosis.
      edit: Just for clarification, I have heard plenty of divers talk about it being enjoyable, but it is rare that I hear one directly state that it is one of the reasons they enjoy diving. I have a feeling that a lot of divers simply refuse to state as much.

    Cave diving and sinkhole diving are so dangerous , I watch so many videos of people losing their lives from cave diving , I would be too afraid to venture into that blackness , even though I like the water as I am from florida , I also have a bit of fear when it comes to the water !

    • @Garian9
      @Garian9 Рік тому +2

      If you are trained and follow the rules of cave diving it's not inherently more dangerous than other activities. It's when people dive beyond their limits or start bending/breaking rules, especially ones they trained, when disasters can happen.

    The divers shown are using a configuration called sidemount. Sidemount didn't even exist until the late 1980's. The line is always tied 2x, the primary and then about 20 yards later a secondary tie off.
