GoPro: Cave Divers Relive Scary Incident
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 гру 2016
- Diver Jeanna Edgerton and her husband Brian Wiederspan describe in detail one of the most intense scenes of the series. After surfacing in a dome with “bad air”, Jeanna struggles to stay afloat and is deprived of oxygen. Brian and the rest of the team quickly mobilize to come to her aid during a very tense, touch-and-go moment.

This is why I will NEVER cave dive in a MILLION YEARS. Too dark, scary, and risky. Give me a nice reef with good visibility and I'm a happy camper.
I said that once lol
xD
Dying in a confined space is 1 thing but DROWNING IN A CONFINED SPACE UNDERWATER IS A NOOOOOO
I would like to do it tho
This incident could have happened anywhere tho. The problem was an equipment malfunction, not anything to do with the cave. 🤷♀️ Yeah, the air wasn't good in the cave they found, but she wasn't panicking because of that. Lol
I watched the whole series and this is really, really frightening to see.. I did not know Jeanna had 25 years of diving experience and 9 years experience with caves.. Those figures are what make this clip so scary in my opinion. Even the best trained divers can turn into a helpless mess when panic takes over the brain.. Really glad the all made it out safe! Much love
neophoys perfect comment. Stole my thoughts.
neophoys kkoo
Those caves are death traps
neophoys I'm sorry, but I don't quite see how you can say "the best" when she immediately went nuts as she realized what was happening, doesn't seem like she was even using her brain. Quite a shame really. Certainly wouldn't trust her with my life, lol. But then again, that's just logic.
neophoys not trying to be negative either, but I would never want her as a diving instructor just based off the way she reacted. I would not expect a diving instructor and someone who is a professional to panic this intensely w
Knowing that there are tons of other trained people around.
"My inflator came loose!" Ten minutes later, " so what we figured out was her inflator came loose."
inflator*
Bryan Lee he spelt I right
Miah Lorae he edited it
Dg oh lmfao I didn’t see that
Actually, she only told them she couldn't inflate her dry suit. That could've been because of anything. They didn't know what happened to her til she calmed down and they could assess what happened.
She’s mad lucky she had experienced divers w/ her. Once that panic set in she was effed if not for them
This is how grandparents describe they got to school
I don’t have any
Jokes on you i live in Denmark
Overused comment
They swam uphill both ways... In the snow... While raining...
Most underrated comment
Kudos to you guys for managing the situation well in a very critical moment. You saved this divers lives! Solid teamwork.
All this comments and only the 0.1% got what really happened here? The girl did a single big (big considering what happened after..) mistake: she took off her regulator when emerged (probably lead due to the stress of her wing was getting flooded) in a non breathable chamber, what happened after was a consequence of it: inability to think, no lucidity, panic.
When you do cave you know that those rooms can be full of non breathable gases that may knock you out in a matter of seconds, so you never take your regulator off (you should never do really) unless you're 100% certain of how the chamber is connected to the surface and that there's always good air; she broken the protocol probably due to the fact that was hard breathing due to the heavy finning (since the bc malfunction) and who does scuba diving knows that while in surface (due to the even pressure on the membrane) is much more easily to breath without a regulator and it's normal to do so in open water.. but not in a cave, that "little" oversight would have turned into a tragic event.
So stop to talk about panic, refuse to take regulator, and whatever... her mistake was "only" to take off the reg from her mouth, the rest was a consequence of her brain not receiving enough oxygen.
u smart :o
That may be true but... i don't really understand why this should be to stressful to her. Losing the inflator is just a inconvenience.
In particular when wearing a drysuit...
@ARCTiC ITA - Great analysis! Been there, done that. Buddy took a large breath from a bad air pocket in a North Florida cave. He passed out cold immediately.
Damn thanks 😁😁😁😁😁😁
I agree with this 100%, but i think her issue was that her dry suit inflation tube became disconnected and the oxygen membrane in the middle began filling with water. I dont know about you, but that is the last scenario I would have thought about having to deal with while cave diving. That extra buoyancy from the dry suit really makes a difference, especially when youre pretty much a rock without it.
this is stupidly dangerous
Not if you do it right.
Borealis Even if you do it right. There's an inherent risk that goes with this passion.
If you live life there is a risk of dying.
@@oscarskarin8997 willingly putting urself deep in an undeground cave in an oxygen deficient environment with only a finite amount of air in ur tank is a little more dangerous than everyday life lol
Holy shit i'm very happy she made it out... Boy it goes to show, follow the strictest protocols, never allow anything out of the ordinary take you down a path to you demise... This is almost heartbreaking to see a man with his wife struggling to keep her alive... idc who u r and how professional you are, when death is getting close, you begin to loose your mind... glad its all over not only for her but her husband, I couldn't imagine what was going through his mind.
one of the most intensive part of all footage...
Really? Nothin more intense than a woman panicking?
@@davidwile1277 No it's more intensive to see a person in general get panicky because there's a good chance of them dying in the exact way a bunch of other divers have died.
@@davidwile1277 exactly what the other person said. In an instant, this could have turned into a terrible experience. When divers panic, they begin ditching gear, fighting people, taking gear off their dive buddies to get more air, etc. If they don't have air in their BCD (the vest they wear) or their dry suit to keep them buoyant, they are extremely heavy and the divers sink. If they are underwater while panicking and are removing their life support gear while underwater...and fighting at other people...yeah. This is a terrible day waiting to happen. Luckily, she calmed herself down and stopped herself from getting to that point.
Note how she said "Take this gear off!" and started to take it off, but then stopped herself. Frikkin a, what a babe. Then when she kept taking the regulator out of her mouth (signs of panic are gear removal), she kept forcing herself to put it back in. What a babe.
As a dive buddy, yes, this is extremely terrifying to see because you know where it can lead. You are not in a safe environment in scuba and these little things can turn into fatal incidents.
Diving is awesome, it's incredible, it's beautiful. But it comes with risks, and these things can escalade quickly.
For non-divers who don't know what's going on & divers who are criticizing her (not critiquing, criticizing): 🤗💖
I can explain! For beginners 1st, divers at the end. 💖🙏
1 - The Gear
On your Buoyancy Comepensator Device, or BCD (the vest strapped to you) there's a hose that is connected to your air tank. It's called an inflator hose because you use it to add air to your BCD to help you float and remain neutrally buoyant so you don't bob up and down. The dry suit she was wearing is different than a wetsuit. Both are designed to keep you warm while underwater. A wetsuit is that skin tight stuff you normally see. Surfers wear them all the time, too. A dry suit is a loose overhanging suit that looks like what astronauts wear. You can even wear normal clothes underneath them! The science is you fill it with air and it keeps you much, much warmer and is intended for very cold water.
You have to let air out or in of both your BC and dry suit as you change your depth. When you're below the surface, the pressure of the water will keep you down. When you're at the surface, you need more air because you are less buoyant. Because your gear is heavy, without air in your BC and drysuit, you begin to sink.
2 - The Panic
What happened was, as she was ascending and adding air to her bc/dry suit to keep her afloat, that inflator hose broke off. Panic set in.
When you panic, the very first thing that happens is you begin to ditch all your gear...you know, the ones that are actually keeping you alive. It's a response that happens because your brain thinks it can't breathe (when it can) and thinks that is what is keeping you from breathing, so people start ditching their gear. She took her regulator out of her mouth (that round thing she's breathing out of), which, on a normal surface would've been safe-ish cuz all you'd have to worry about is swallowing water (which could add to more panic and more problems, but at least you could breath alright), but this cave had poor air quality, so she could have passed out immediately by not breathing the air from her tank. Now you've got an unconcious diver with bad gear. Luckily, she didn't pass out, but the lack of quality air in the cave made it even harder for her brain to think straight and so the panic continued as well. So, she had panic going on from the gear, plus when she got to the surface and removed her regulator, she was then facing the toxic air around her.
Luckily, she was trained well and began to take many steps to keep it from escelating into a terrible scene. She called out for help, caught herself from actually ditching her gear and didn't, kept putting the reg back in her mouth even after she kept throwing it away, and managed to stay pretty level throughout it all. And her team was right there immediately to walk her thru all the steps and calm her down. ALL THAT happened because of training. Because the emergency response was rooted into all of them. At any moment, in an instant, this could have gone terribly worse. Not only do panicked divers start removing their own gear, but they also become violent and start stealing gear from their dive buddies because they realize they can't breathe and need support. This panic can happen to anyone with any kind of dive experience and for any reason. Even a little fish swimming by can trigger panic in a 30 year long diver. There's a lot to go wrong and this in an instant could have become fatal. However, they all stopped that from happening and it's really amazing to see. Makes me so grateful for training. 🙏
* *For all yall divers at there* ... * yall know what panic is like. You can't think straight. Yall know it ain't fully her fault, give her some grace. But look at the beautiful emergency response they ALL performed, including herself. She yelled "Take this gear off!" but stopped herself. She threw the reg out, but then put it back in. She listened to the others. Most notably, she immediately called out for help and alerted everyone else about what was going on. She knew what emergency was happening and bc of the training rooted in her, saved herself along with her team helping in that. That is something to be darn proud of. For all of them. This is an accepting community, it's troubling to see such harsh comments. Yes, we see these videos and use them to better ourselves, but we should not berate and degrade our fellow divers.
We are all at the mercy of the elements, no matter how experienced. You are not her, you were not the one panicking, you were not the one who believed their life was on the line. And, guess what? When you're diving, at every moment, your life IS on the line. Why have many forgotten this in your comments? I hope to see more accepting and uplifting comments in the future. Can we be more understanding of each other, please? 🤗💖 Oss. 👌🙏
Great comment.
I appreciate your detailed explanation. Thanks alot!
I really enjoyed reading this !
ALWAYS REMEMBER, even the best equipment is man made and subject to failure.
This needs to be pinned.
Great comment.!
I once ran out of oxygen and start panicking my instructor tried to give me some of his regulator but i was so agitated that I drifted away!! thanks god my mum conceived me from a night stand with a shark so I was able to breathe thanks to the gills I've inherited from my dad
What did I just read
King Luis
Luis Meloni
Luis Meloni XD damn I thought you were serious XD
What?
Pretty scary that such an experienced diver like her can still panic.
Of course she can. Unless you have accepted Jesus Chris as your lord and savior fear of death is a natural part of life.
@@danieljohansson839 lmfao what
women dont know how to seperate emotions and fear from survival she went into a instant panic all the training in the world couldnt of saved her if she was alone
@@magster41tru tru
She went into instant panic mode, couldve killed everybody
women thats why
Super scary, what a classic case of panic. Great recount!
Thanks for sharing! Much to learn here. Just showed it to my wife (she recently got OW certified) . The dangers of not be able to create boyancy on surface as a diver.
Who else was breathing hard to try to make her breath
farronthomas lol
Kids
This goes to show that you can be the best at what you do and still things can go wrong. When she said she had to get this gear off you know its near death she almost died. You don't have to be clostrophobic to one day learn how uncomfortable that feeling is.
These individuals have THE BRAVEST souls, to dive down just to explore and get content for us and realize they may not come back.
I respect these people, im glad she was able to talk about this scary experience and not her dive partners for her
I could NEVER cave dive let alone explore dry caves.
they have such an adventurous life. some people spend all their days sitting behind computers in office blocks, these guys are modern day adventurers. right on.
wow. good team work, could have ended quite differently without the support of a good team. Well done. I will share this video with my students.
Excellent work. calm control. good team
No matter what you can't breath see how you will act !! Experienced or not....
THANK YOU!
I had a panic attack when learning to dive, the surface is always the worst place. Now I always put my head underwater if I am slightly out of breath or over exerted on the surface, the extra pressure on the regulator increases air flow and helps you begin to breathe normally again, you’re no longer stressed about keeping water out of your mouth from waves again etc.
There is a whole lot more chemistry going on inside the body in the conditions of cave diving than regular diving. People often die from the disorientation that their minds develop when panicked at those depths. the diving you describe is not comparable to that of a cave diver.
@@johnstrombowly824 I’d love to know more, what are those chemistry differences that render my comment irrelevant?
I saw a very similar comment posted by you on this video to someone else (not comparable, differences in body chemistry). The fact is that people comment on their own experiences to draw similarities. Rather than just saying ‘what you’re saying is irrelevant because _nothing compares to cave diving’_ can you not just explain how so people can actually learn something?
@@chelseaw9009 Sense of direction is much more important in a cave. In the open water, up is obviously the way to safety. Think of the panic attack you experienced coupled with zero visibility above water, zero below water (silt), loss of direction, and ear-piercing echos. It's a whole different ballgame compared to open sea diving. Not to mention rescue is alot easier in case of a mistake while open sea diving versus cave diving. Basically a small mistake open sea diving, would be a death sentence while cave diving.
@@reprogrammedtohae4286 did you intend to reply in this thread? You’ve explained the obvious challenges of cave diving, but nothing that’s really relevant to what I’ve said. Managing your breathing is important for a panic attack whether on land or in water - even if it’s in a cave.
@@chelseaw9009 You asked the other commenter to explain how cave diving doesn't compare to regular diving, which I just explained to you. Cave diving is serious business. It's just far more dangerous than regular diving. Nothing that you've said is "irrelevant" though. Idk why the other commenter said that. Your advice on a panic attack is spot on. But like the other commenter said, a panic attack while cave diving is much more dangerous than a panic attack regular diving..due to the reasons I've already explained
Things like this are why I’m glad I go dead still and calm when I panic. If I’m happy and excited I jitter, but when I’m scared I’m still and cold.
What's scarier than spelunking? Spelunking while also underwater.
No no no no no no no no
@Vsatyk In the UK they call it potholing. I prefer that term.
What language are y’all speaking?
LMAO @@joshnic6639
I don't get the arguing here, but dang dude I'm glad she was ok. You handled the situation very well!
"Describe in detail" you've just put the same clip from the second part, no additional details of what happend
I’m a cave diver. Your team did it PROPER. A++
Oh god, this gave me so much anxiety. So glad she is okay 😥
hair on my neck standing up that was gnarly AF. The way the other divers calmly and patiently aided her was excellent. This proves you can be urgent and assertive all while being patient and calm.
Of all the ghost video, haunted houses, abandoned hospital videos this is the type shit that scares me
Giving me a heart attack
All those years of experience count for nothing when panic sets in .
This would've been a million times worse with an inexperienced diver.
Idk how an inexperienced diver would have gotten themselves into this dive group for this cave/anthropological dive, but yeah! It definitely would have! Freaks me out thinking about it. Hahaha. BUT it WAS beautiful to see how her training saved her. Because she was so well adept to her knowledge, she immediately began to perform rescue on herself in so many ways. It was gorgeous to see. Her and her team saved her, it was great.
@@akbt2 Mostly her team saved her... she was fighting with them a bit and spitting out the regulator so I don't think I'd give credit to her rather than her dive buddies who kept forcing the regulator back in her mouth.
She was
@@akbt2 She panicked and fought them the whole time. What video did you watch?
She is inexperienced
So how did they fix it?
The panic in her voice omfg
Thats her normal voice
So... when you surface in middle of cave dive like that, you don't need to decompress? I thought you always have to decomp? Can someone please answer? thank you.
SephCat74, it depends at the depth you were at prior to surfacing. However, in when surfacing in a cave you better do the safety stop for 3 min at 15'.
To answer your question, for the past few years, most open water and cave divers utilize a wrist mounted diving computer that calculates several things including decompression stops and times. I am very familiar with the region that this incident occurred and have helped to map several of the underwater caves in the Tulum, Mexico area. The geology of this region is unique and has produced some of the most incredible cave systems and structures in the world. The general structure of the underwater cave systems in the Yucatan provide all the challenges of cave diving without the dangers of extreme depth associated with underwater cave systems found in other parts of the world. There are several cave systems in the Yucatan that allow a diver to travel 1.5km into the system and never exceed 19 meters in depth. At any time during a dive as described a diver could surface without any need for decompression. I hope this helps with your question. If you ever have a chance to visit the region I would highly recommend you check it out for yourself. I would recommend this site. cenotes.com/Dive-Sites.php
SephCat74
Example:
300ft dive means 24 hours per 100ft + an extra day; total of 4 days decompression.
All other forms of decompressions are simply to entertain men with vaginas instead of testicles...
What have saturaion diving to do with anything? Besides that is decompressing sleeping in bed eating donuts really hard I heard, need testicles for that for sure.
She started panicking right away
there was barely any oxygen in that cave, plus you have to keep yourself afloat and can barely see a thing, most people would do the same.
Yeah she was so "experienced".
I'd like to hear an after action report, why did it come loose, what's up with choking feeling on regulator , how did the dive back get modified.
The choking was a duality of attempting to breathe while in a toxic cavern & also the 1st symptom of panic...so while breathing on the regulator her mind felt as if she weren’t able to catch her breath /choking. Scary situation, I’m so grateful they were able to help her center her mind which allowed panic to quickly subside as logic kicked back in! It takes a special person to cave dive, not many woman partake in it because we are more susceptible to emotional ruin such as panic/fear...If I were to dive a cave or even off a deep wall I’d not only place myself in danger but more importantly my dive buddy, I only wish more ppl thought of their partner before partaking in high risk dives (I’m definitely not talking about this woman in the video, she’s an ace🤲🏽).
Yeah, I wanna know how they got out after that with the inflator hose coming off.
@@anniefranks6881 everyone else was talking and breathing cave air just fine... she was just an unstable person who lacks exp. Simple as that. Years and years on the bunny slope doesnt mean you can go down the black diamond.
@@abundantharmony what?….
Imagine being a new diver and she is your instructor
you dont cave dive as a new diver
@@conandoyle1740 stfu
As a teacher and a climber I find the term 'experienced' such a misleading description. It should be 'skilled'. Experienced just simply means that you have been through the motions. Now if you've only gone through non-threatening motions that's all you are skilled at. So one can have years, even decades, of experience, but not be skilled in life-threatening situations. Just like what seems to have happened here (I don't know what her full background is, as I've only watched this video). You learn and practice intellectually what to do, but unless you put yourself in an actual moment (simulated or otherwise), your body will have had no experience to reference... I have years of climbing experience, but by no means would I call myself a skilled climber.
Very VERY good point...
Was looking for this point.
climbing and deep diving are not very comparable however. Additionally you could have survived what she did a million times over but it would never come down to personal experience or skill.. the team is what saved her, also there is a lot more chemistry going on within her body at that moment than what you would ever experience climbing.
This had me gasping for air. 🙏🏾 that poor woman.
How did she end up getting out with a flooded bc and no inflator?
Alexis Mendez
She said she kicked really hard
The inflator came off in her hand. Most of them are actually just ziptied onto the inflator hose for ease of removal
I'm so glad that she wasn't alone!
no one cave dives alone, wtf?
@@ChrisGugliuzza Wrong, edd sorenson, sheck exley, dave shaw and many others did many solo cave dives.
I don't get it someone pls explain
Doesn’t matter how experience you have. You only need one time for it to all go wrong!
Wow almost like everyone is a human………… 🤡🤡🤡
This is the "Swarm mentality" in action. Crisis averted, well handled.
No explanation on how they got out or deflated her wing?
She would be fired off my crew in a heartbeat.
She seemed to go full panic there pretty fast.
Phalex ya that was pretty bad, and she's an instructor? But holy crap she went not just crazy but delirious she kept refusing the proper air she needed
Phalex When you breathe air with low oxygen it messes you up. I saw this in the smarter every day video
Brayden Werner I'm aware of the science. Her inability to stay calm and check her gear pre dive is the largest issue.
Phalex Well you got me there
One more thing that is overlooked when cave diving, and that is maintaining a good buoyancy. Too heavy as this lady was or too light can be very risky.
Regulator out? Oh dear.
Was he saying some of these opening in the water caves.....dont have any oxygen?
What's an inflator?
How do you fix the broken inflator?
That's a good question... in an attempt to answer your question, I will offer the following thoughts;
1) I have been diving for 43 years and have never heard of a BCD inflator valve malfunction. Just saying, few people would plan on having to repair an inflator valve above surface, let alone, under the water.
2) to answer your question in two words, You Don't
3) It really comes down to what actually failed (low pressure hose connection, valve detachment from fill hose, internal catastrophic failure, etc.)
4) While many divers are trained to carry backup equipment & tools only a handful actually practice what they preach. Cave diving safety requires the implementation of as many redundancies as feasible. (tank regulators, mask, fin straps, etc).
5) It doesn't matter how much stuff you have in your bag if you haven't taken the time to train, train, train.
6) I don't know any of the divers in this video but I would bet, if they had the equipment & tools to repair a BCD inflator valve, they lacked the experience.
All this said, she experienced a major equipment malfunction while cave diving and survived.
I apologize for sharing thoughts that are outside your main question but I hope I helped answer your question.
You had a panic attack my dear. Good job handling it the way you did
This is particularly why you never dive alone 👍🏼
THIS VIDEO ISNT 1080?
Can someone explain whats happening? I don’t know anything about diving, is that inflator suppose to keep her afloat? How much is it actually help her stay afloat (like idk roughly how many kg is weighing her down)? Because with fins isn’t it pretty easy to stay afloat? I don’t know how heavy the geat is though
Divers wear a Buoyancy Compensation Device, BCD. The BCD requires constant adjustment, adding air / releasing air, to control your buoyancy, especially when cave diving. When you want to surface and keep your head above water, it requires filling your BCD significantly. While a BCD valve malfunction in open water is a minor to medium issue, it is a major issue in a cave. It doesn't matter how much you kick your fins, it is close to impossible to stay on the surface without a functioning BCD.
When you consider her BCD valve broke just as she was attempting to surface and probably didn't realize the extent of the problem, then taking a few breaths of Skunky air... well, the video shows what happens.
In my opinion, her first mistake was to remove her regulator and stop breathing from her tank. It is "Cave Diver 101" to refrain breathing the air of an "air pocket" unless absolutely necessary being extremely cautious to test air quality. Decaying vegetation & bat dung can easily produce poisonous air.
If she would have made the decision to stay submerged and drop to the bottom to assess the issue with her BCD she may have avoided going into "Panic" mode.
All that said, she experienced a major equipment malfunction while cave diving and survived.
I hope I helped answer your questions
@@PH_INFO_101 Oh i see, its just hard to imagine not being able to stay afloat with fins and I only swam in normal swimming pools and you don't really have to kick at all to stay afloat with fins, maybe at depth, its a different matter I guess
@@joesr31 Another factor I should have shared is that your buoyancy in salt water is 3% more than fresh water. When SCUBA diving in saltwater it generally requires wearing 10-15lbs more lead weight than you would in freshwater. The underwater caves in the Yucatan, Mexico are freshwater on top of saltwater. The area where freshwater & saltwater meet & mix is called "halocline". The depth you encounter halocline is directly related to your "feet above sea level". The objective when navigating an underwater cave is to maintain neutral buoyancy to avoid stirring up silt or scraping the ceiling, requiring constant adjustment of your BCD depending on your depth & which water you are in.
If you have time, I highly recommend watching the video on UA-cam titled "Dive into the Halocline by Steve Martin" it will blow your mind
good calm quick react from the mate GG !! But she don't seem that experienced, like in panic experienced diver know that they need to breath regulator and concentrate on that
I have a fear of water and this isn't helping me overcome it.
I scuba dive just so I can have panic attacks, it's the ultimate thrill 🤣🦈💙
Funny people comment on this ladys actions but don't have any real idea what they would actually do in that situation. You wouldn't even get me in a cave let alone under water so kudos to her.
Just goes to show even the most experienced divers can get caught slippin. Nobody's perfect! I free dive and haven't had any bad experiences yet & it's goin to stay that way. All about to state of mind yours in. You can be physically fit but are you mentally prepared to do what your doing ?? P.S always always always dive with a buddy equally matched to your skill level. Never dive alone.
Anyone know where this dive was?
Mexico
Jeez, that is the definition of panicking.
yeah just totally freaked out. Not a safe person to dive with whatsoever.
Where's that cave?
even a professional can have a hard time, to all cave divers out there, stay safe!
So what happened did they fix her thingy magiggy
she went into panic .....
Watching this with asthma is tuff
There's just way too much that can go wrong underwater for me to go there..it's rather stupid to even try it.
shot on the hero4 by the way
Her mistake was assuming the chamber had breathable air. She has how many yrs cave diving experience?
should always check ur equipment before each dive
How'd they get out?
the same way they got in?
lol she just had a panic attack and didnt realize .. experienced my ass

Its not just something u can try out u need to train and its very dangerous
Get certified first
breath thru the reg gena! pans to random dude reg out of his mouth lmao
Blind leading the frickin blind.
Because clearly the air wasn't so bad it chokes you... She was just an unstable person who cannot follow simple instructions because she thinks "her way is better" in her brain. People like this win the darwin award. The other people were talking and breathing just damn fine. She was an idiot. Clearly didn't have the exp they said she did. 11 years of diving exp would lead you to keep the reg in your mouth all the time, no excuse. Was literally panicking while holding on to the wall, thinking she would sink.
Its a natural reaction to take a deep inhale when breaching from water into a waterless atmosphere. Even if you may have the knowledge, but not yet the experience, that this water free environment may not have a single breath of oxygen and may actually contain gases that could be harmful to you. I am confused as to why she attempted to inflate her vest, but I can understand how the overall event took her breath away. Thank goodness there were others to firmly reattach her life giving oxygen to her. A good lesson that sometimes we must yield to those we trusted, because left to our own judgement (as she kept spitting her regulator out) we may very well choose a path of peril. I am so glad to be able to experience all that you folks sacrificed for. It was absolutely incredible on screen and must have been overwhelming in person.
Scary stuff. I take it she was OK but were there any consequences from this? I know some people have died in similar situations.
5 years too late, but there wouldn't be any long-term side effects of breathing in low oxygen air, unless there was some other toxic chemical present. She did not lose consciousness, so no brain damage suffered.
Being calm is key...
No shit shearlock. I hear you have tons of cave diving experience thanks for the input.
So she took off regulator, panicked, and she is a teacher....
RIP
Why did she freaked out? Is her equipment heavy and was pulling her down?
I'm starting to sweat just watching this
I think it would have been better without the music, but cool video
Scary..
And this is exactly why i would never do anything to do with diving. When shit goes wrong in the water it goes really wrong. Ill just watch other people do it on youtube.
Troubling People with that words. Mrs.Professional Diver.
This is why you NEVER Dive alone!
Ok, I´m a diver and I live in Quintana Roo (Mexico) and there is a myth between the locals, specially the people of the small towns. Here and on the neighbor state of Yucatan you can find thousands of sinkholes (Cenotes). For cave divers, is the paradise. On some of them, the locals said, the water inside has no force on it (just in certain hours of the day), which means that you can´t float on it and you can´t establish positive buoyancy. Sounds crazy, I dove in 7 or 8 sinkholes and everything is normal, however they assure to me that some good friends of them (good swimmers by the way), drowned in these sink holes due the lack of force on the water. For them is live an evil force. When I saw this video looks like she was unable to float and comes to my memory what the locals said.
Fernando Cavia pero como? No se supone que es agua salada?
+david rodriguez la gran mayoría de los cenotes son de agua dulce!! Solo unos cuantos son de agua salada o una mezcla de ambas
No you
you can't breathe cave air ?
i thought it said cake delivers instead of cave divers
Never, ever panic. Doing so will ensure that you die and not peacefully either...
No thanks.
The human body is designed to live outside water, we aren't amphibians. So when you push it to the limit, your body reacts. This is why several divers panic underwater.
Everyone is saying "why was she panicking" but everyone should ask why they aren't all wearing their regs in "oxygen deficient" caves! They could have all lost orientation!
You know though, that Oxygen deficiancy is not a switch that turns on or off. You will notice it very slowly but youre not gonna blackout or loose orientation from breathing in those caves for 5 minutes.
@@xIceBlizZ4rDx The real question is why they would take them out without 100% knowing if the air is safe to breath...
Should definitely lose their instuctor licence. Imagine students trusting them, doing the same stupid shit because they won´t know any better as well.
She’s going against all the basics. Regulator out and mask off. Why not drop the weights if your struggling to float? Bit of a mess. She’s lucky she was with others.
They always call themselves experts but their not...9 years doesnt mean anything.9 years and how many times did you go cave diving once or twice?
I wouldn't even want to go through 10% of her career so I don't know what happened but there's so many little things you have to do when diving just so you won't die so.
