Scuba diving is a truly transcendental experience. With the press of water around you and the only sound, the hiss of your own breathing, you have time to be alone with your thoughts.
***** @ 2:00 thats when fins hit the ground ... by the way lovely video...you should dive The Red sea the city of Sharm el shehk and DAHAB South Sinai EGYPT
***** Yeah, but if you kick up too much sand it can put a layer on the coral that can block the sunlight that the zooxanthellae that lives in the coral needs to photosynthesize. If the algae doesn't produce enough sugar the coral can become stressed and start to starve
Ahh bro I used to listen to Bonobo years ago.. man you brought back big time memories bless you brother. I thought It was Mr Carmack a few minutes. Much love from South Africa. One love for all
Great video. Loved it! Spot on with the musical selection, also. Every diver should try and hit the GBR at least once in their lives. It's one of those 'must dive' places, and worth the trip. Michael
+will clark So true. I lived in OZ for about two years while completing a Masters at The University of Sydney, and spent every available moment going north and diving the GBR. Amazing! Even after a couple hundred dives there, I'm getting ready to return for one last experience. Michael
+will clark you are so lucky!!I have done NOTHING this summer except sit home and wait for the next year of school.And I only have a month left till school and I am soooo jealous of you!!
I only dived at agincourt reef and all the footage was from that spot, so im unsure about what the rest of the reef is like, i think though the further south you get the better :)
Can't wait to dive here. Great shots with the Hero 3. Check out my Hero 3 dive videos on my channel if you get a chance! I have some with a red filter and it makes such huge difference. None the less, great video and happy diving! Sub'd
Hi there, love the video - hope you don't mind but actually borrowed it to serve as a backing for some original music... purely private use, of course, but it's usually nice to let people know ;)
***** Will do... about 3/4 of the way through it at the moment... should have it mixed by tonight. I'll post it on my channel and post a link ... cheers
"All the coral is dying..." What are you guys talking about? A healthy reef is characterized by 30-40% hard coral cover. The reef in the video has more than 50% coral cover! Corals dying and forming limestone is normal...then new corals grow on the old and the reef gets built up. Want to see ailing reefs? Check out my videos from the Florida Keys. Still, even with the decline of hard coral there, there is lots to see and tons of life.
It's not, but okay. I've been diving and studying marine science for years and assure you it's not. I can see living tissue clear as day in the video. Is some dead? Yes. Is the reef degrading? Probably. But to say it's already dead when the video suggests otherwise is idiocy. Cheap cameras like a go pro do not capture color underwater well, which is why it all looks the same color.
I agree the visibility affects the quality of colours as well as the quality of the camera like Drew said. There is plenty of marine life ranging from sponges to corals up to are diverse range of fish species and other marine mammals.
I just started scuba diving and rule number one is not to disturb the aquatic fauna! And m we can only see scared aquatic life in this video. I wish you could be more careful and respectful of the beautiful surrounding and please don't touch the coral reef!
Brilliant cool video! We really love that place as well. Can't wait to see more. Have a swatch at our vlogs from there ua-cam.com/video/KUP8rgiuMnE/v-deo.html also you should visit to Scotland where we live. Its always bad weather but the sights and folk are nice.
you are bad at diving, its really obvious. You are literally poking your gopro that you have on a stick into the faces of the fish. You must think ur so sick
I wish people wouldn't chase the turtles! This causes them to drown because their too scared to come back up for air when people keep swimming after them. We hardly have any left so please just watch them from a distance
As soon as he saw that lion fish hes like fuck this shit im out lol
The happiest place on earth for us.. under the sea. Beautiful footage.
Thankyou it is a purely awesome place isnt it
under water is like an alien world in a way i love scuba diving thumbs up will clark good vid
Scuba diving is a truly transcendental experience. With the press of water around you and the only sound, the hiss of your own breathing, you have time to be alone with your thoughts.
Sharks:am I a joke to you?
Pure awesomeness. I hope my dreams come true one day and I will dive there by myself :)
Great video, thumbs up from us and cheers from sunny IGY Simpson Bay Marina, Sint Maarten in the Caribbean.
amazing video footage, and editing love the way you put the music in too! All in all incredible video!
Beautiful
Thanks
Amazing video dude
Can't wait until I can scuba dive!😄
that's just unbelievable
Cheers :)
please keep your fins of the ground and do not touch anything.....dive touch free keep our ocean beautiful
Yeh totally agree with you mate not sure when we hit the reef though?
***** @ 2:00 thats when fins hit the ground ... by the way lovely video...you should dive The Red sea the city of Sharm el shehk and DAHAB South Sinai EGYPT
not trying to be rude mate but that's only sand... ahah oh god id love to :)
***** Yeah, but if you kick up too much sand it can put a layer on the coral that can block the sunlight that the zooxanthellae that lives in the coral needs to photosynthesize. If the algae doesn't produce enough sugar the coral can become stressed and start to starve
It's Dead :(
It is so beautiful, great video quality. I hope one I will be able to dive there. 😏
Beautiful scenery
thanks mate
Nice one, did you do color correction ?
The Song Is Kiara - Bonobo
Ahh bro I used to listen to Bonobo years ago.. man you brought back big time memories bless you brother. I thought It was Mr Carmack a few minutes. Much love from South Africa. One love for all
Thanks for your advice i will next time cause some scenes did need it, and yes the reef was incredible
Great video!

+Etsuko & Michael You are so right, just incredible the amount of marine life there is to observe
+will clark So true. I lived in OZ for about two years while completing a Masters at The University of Sydney, and spent every available moment going north and diving the GBR. Amazing! Even after a couple hundred dives there, I'm getting ready to return for one last experience.

WHITE TIP REEF SHARKS ARE COOOOOOLLL
Do you use any filters on your go pro? Thank you! Awesome video!
beautiful!
Thankyou :)
Will: I have done a prelim mix... still needs a little eq... but check it out here: Scuba
Beautiful...whats the music in the beginning?
why does it look so colourless and bland 😭😭 it used to be beautiful and full of colour
The camera doesn't quite capture the vibrant colours of the reef. You must experience it with your own eyes to fully understand.
will clark I see so in real life though it's still full of colour reds oranges yellows blues ?
Yeh absolutely, the range of colourful fish species add to the colour as well.
CreatorGolden no 22% dead the rest is very ill
The Football Centre The images straight out of a GoPro look a bit flat. If the footage was color graded it would look more colorful.
what kind of shark was that? my guess is Lemon Shark I don't know if im right. Also that huge fish that was spotted what kind of fish is that?
Hi mate, the shark was a type of reef shark not sure what species in particular though, the large fish your talking about is a Queensland Groper
okay :)
That is a white tip reef shark fyi. :)
good work Martin :)
nice!!
I'm taking my Gopro to the GBR, did you use a colour filter when you dived?
no, i just adjusted light during editing but i have heard red filters work a treat,
Never touch the coral damnnn we destroy the world so easy
+Dennis van der Zalm yes champ
+will clark you are so lucky!!I have done NOTHING this summer except sit home and wait for the next year of school.And I only have a month left till school and I am soooo jealous of you!!
My best friend, Wonderful video dear. I enjoyed watching. Hope to see you soon...
Actually that one was a bit naff... file size was huge.... try this one: Scuba Barrier Reef
Will is there a better place to dive (on the reef) or is it mostly all good (I know nothing about the reef, I know it's very long)?
I only dived at agincourt reef and all the footage was from that spot, so im unsure about what the rest of the reef is like, i think though the further south you get the better :)
That is amazin 😀❤️😀😱
Only on the turtle parts as they were a bit colourless but all else natural mainly because the colour kept changing when i played the video
I would love to go here one day, but when I was younger something happened when I was in the sea and now I am terrified to even go near the ocean.
Yuiiski Yuii what happened?
how deep was the dive? great video!
about 20 metres
Still better fish A.I than Ghosts
ghosts arent real
+Cescorage can you be this dumb
considering these are real fucking fish which the AI were based off of, yes, of fucking course the real thing is better than whats in the game....
how long did your gopro stay on for?
We just turned it on for parts which we thought were worth recording as if you just left it on you would have a lot of editing :)
ah ok thanks
Brinley shelton No worries
We loved this and posted in our scuba portal at www.satellitesportsnetwork.com
Thanks
Where there a lot of sharks?
No only that one but they are harmless anyway
Can't wait to dive here. Great shots with the Hero 3. Check out my Hero 3 dive videos on my channel if you get a chance! I have some with a red filter and it makes such huge difference. None the less, great video and happy diving! Sub'd
Hi there, love the video - hope you don't mind but actually borrowed it to serve as a backing for some original music... purely private use, of course, but it's usually nice to let people know ;)
haha na sweet mate thankyou
also wouldnt mind having a look at it if you upload it
*****
Will do... about 3/4 of the way through it at the moment... should have it mixed by tonight. I'll post it on my channel and post a link ... cheers

Drew Maglio it's dead now lol
It's not, but okay. I've been diving and studying marine science for years and assure you it's not. I can see living tissue clear as day in the video. Is some dead? Yes. Is the reef degrading? Probably. But to say it's already dead when the video suggests otherwise is idiocy. Cheap cameras like a go pro do not capture color underwater well, which is why it all looks the same color.

Do you have a filter on the lens?
No filter
*****
And is the footage color corrected/graded?
Was a while ago but i think most of it is pretty standard
was Nemo there?
yep at 2:27
Lol
Sad cause so many of the corals are already dead 😭😭😭
Sad to see all those dead corals..
No offense AT ALL but I'm only watching this just so I can man up cuz I'm going scuba diving tomorrow (I don't know where the offense is either)
awesome thanks for sharing
The reef is gonna die anyway, so might as well touch it while we can
Just a shame all the coral is dying :c
i know right! :(
I just started scuba diving and rule number one is not to disturb the aquatic fauna! And m we can only see scared aquatic life in this video. I wish you could be more careful and respectful of the beautiful surrounding and please don't touch the coral reef!
yeh yeh
I went scuba diving there and I am only 12.
Nice haha
+blasted same
Fatty Mcgee I did too
Fatty Mcgee
Lucky.. I really want to go there
Brilliant cool video! We really love that place as well. Can't wait to see more. Have a swatch at our vlogs from there ua-cam.com/video/KUP8rgiuMnE/v-deo.html also you should visit to Scotland where we live. Its always bad weather but the sights and folk are nice.
It looks like a bunch of rotten cauli flower! Destroyed.
wow, guess they let anyone go to the reef....
what do you mean?
you are bad at diving, its really obvious. You are literally poking your gopro that you have on a stick into the faces of the fish. You must think ur so sick
I'd say the fish would have died from all that stress haha.
Where the reef... Oh wait it's all dead
you almost died at 3:10
Nice video, obnoxious music makes it hard to watch though. Gets unbearable with all that BLEEPBOOPBLEEPBOOPBLEEPBOOP constantly.
Looks all bleached out.
I wish people wouldn't chase the turtles! This causes them to drown because their too scared to come back up for air when people keep swimming after them. We hardly have any left so please just watch them from a distance
The divers Are so unpofessional
unprofessional
Where is that?
Aussie m8
Is the footage color blind
nice video, which mount u use with the gopro when scuba diving?
thanks, i used a homemade pole which is made from the display mount that comes with the box which i glued onto a wooden stick.
RIP
Nice!!
