During my scuba diving course I had to do it multiple times and I hated every second of it. The belt always got stuck in my tank😂

[@MarcelVanDenBerg1]

Yes that does happen :) It's a bit tricky, but in the end you got it

[@nicolasnelson7752]

Hey Marcel! I watch your videos all the time and see that your a PADI platinum course director. So what exactly does a course director do? All I know is that it's the highest-ranked group of instructors in recreational diving.

[@MarcelVanDenBerg1]

Hi Nicolas! How are you? PADI Course Director is the highest rank you can achieve as a Recreational Diver/Instructor. As a PADI Course Director you can teach all recreational courses and on top you can teach people to become PADI Diving Instructors. Best Job in The World! :)
