The thing that bothers me the most is the lack of foot protection. Coral all up in your feet meat would be awful!

It’s called drift diving (usually done with scuba gear), I’ve done it once in a proper current, it’s really fun, it feels like flying. 1/2
brambleramble
right, but without fins or tanks this really just feels off. Not having the extra thrust from fins....
itainttrollingifitstroo
That’s point of drift diving, you don’t need to fin...
itainttrollingifitstroo
Scuba divers will often plan their dives so that they can drift their dive away from their boat, and then back when the tide turns. 2/2

I watch this movie at least once a month

He’s not. It’s FreeDiving. Taking a big breath before hand and training to hold your breath obscenely long times.

GurtX
Last time I checked it called holding your breath
aboxacaraflatafan
Check again. We can't afford to be wrong on this. Not again...
inevermadeone
BTW long breath healed was around 24 mins at a dive con with medical O2 before and after. The guy just floated face down a foot below.
viila
Static apnea. Considerably lower oxygen requirements than freediving.
NotoriousDuchess
It's called Free Diving, where you ignore everyone telling you it's dangerous, and then they find your body 15m down. Pretty rad.
Individualsocksinthewashingmachine
newsguycraigevans
They even made a movie about it. SPOILERS A lot of them die.
mritty
I’m a certified SCUBA diver, but god free diving scares the shit out of me.
silverhands
Yeah, like what if he found out the current was too strong for him to swim out of?
mritty
Then he would be, in diving parlance, “fucked”.

Not so bad. You can work on your fear of open oceans by playing diving simulating computer games, like Subnautica...

No.

Diving games just reinforce my fear of the sea

I play exactly that for working on my fear of being submerged and everything about the ocean. Also got Depth. Terrifying.

Upinthecold
Drift diving is very relaxing. Can just let the current move you across the sights
CEOEXPERT
yeah and what if you cant escape the current before running out of that single breath you took then you a dead fishy.
Upinthecold
If current is horizontal, it would take the same amount of effort to surface anyway. Just at another different spot.
XdelaforceX
yeah, I did a dive similar to this off the coast of Mexico, current carried wife and I roughly 4 miles. great siteseeing without much effort
eggmuffin
Think of our oceans as just a thicker bit of our atmosphere. They have winds, just like the air does. We just call them currents.
SecondSince
But, we also have air currents... :/
Phischstaebchen
we live on the ground of a air-ocean.... just saying...
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
I'm a freediver (breath hold diver). The diver will be wearing a weight belt. Which means that you are neuterally boyant at -10m.

TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
Mildly informative article. Sry for linking away from imgur! : https://mpora.com/diving/freediving-technique-hold-breath-underwater-longer
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
Yes, it requires special breathing techniques and getting into a meditative state in order to burn as little oxygen as possible.

TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
afterwards as your lungs natural 'resting' position is full. If you push past this you then have no indicators as to how much you need .4.
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
can push yourself to pass out. I have done underwater a couple of times. Though not a depth. Freediving rule one, only dive with a buddy!.6.
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
to breath in. You can easily get to this stage just at your desk. If you push past this and aren't aware of your own lung capacity you .5.
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
First people report face and/or neck get warm (for me lips/mouth). Second phase is urge to swallow, body forces you to swallow several .2.
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
Haha! No worries for the questions. Yes, you body responds to the "lack of oxygen" or rather build up of C02 in several ways.
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
times. Thirdly, your diaphragm sharply contracts numerous times. This is your body trying to force air out, and force you to take in air .3.
FreezeTheBallsOffABrassMonkey
Don't see weights here. And also, no fins? Little difficult to get back to the surface before drowning without fins. What do you think?
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
I had to watch the video, he has a very thin weight belt on (check 1:30) low on his hips, under his suit. But he is also much deeper 1/?
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
than 10m, I'd estimate -20 to-30m. So his lung capacity will be 1/3 to 1/4 surface capacity due to pressure. Further decreasing buoyancy.2/3
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
In regards to no fins. Yes, much harder commonly done though. World record freedive - no fins https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBWbq-PSjV8
FreezeTheBallsOffABrassMonkey
Yeah but using weights to descend and climbing back up a tether...
TheTransDimensionalCouncilOfRicks
The tether is necessary because light doesn't pierce bellow -50m. It is literally pitch black. There is no other way of doing it..
stock8413
Yes.

How could it be real if our eyes aren't real?
TheFinalDoctor
bullshit. looks green screened. also no bubbles.
macpall
Have you ever watched the discovery channel? It’s where I seen it before. It’s real.
lambergini
Why would there be bubbles?
jimmyriba
He's free-diving (notice no SCUBA gear), hence no bubbles and stable buoyancy.
jimmyriba
(When diving with gear, one tends to rise on inhale (filled lungs) and fall on exhale. Free-diving is done on a single breath.)

watch the video. the gif is shit quality.

Not SCUBA. Free diving. Ie, holding his breath a very long time.
JHawke
Humans can hold their breath for minutes.
Veckzis
Minutes!

Couple if active, over ten in static apnea.

Yes, as in that thing between seconds and hours.

Herbert Nitsch. World Record for deep free dive. No tanks. No airline. 253.2 meters (831 feet) underwater and back. You might Google him.

"The Big Blue" coming to mind.... he's living with dolphins, right?
EdwardStarsmith
He will be 48 years old next April. Still living. Doing well.

Maybeinanotherdimension
Got it, just didn't look right to me. I assumed, they dive down deep as they can, then surface, didn't realize (stupidly) that they hang
Maybeinanotherdimension
About. I remember not to long ago a record holder went missing on a free dive.
Fizzledrizzle69
This makes me extremely uncomfortable

I've done a drift dive like this. there was a bunch of us, all sitting in the lotus position, cruising along the seafloor, great fun!

The loss of control is freaky. What if it gets faster and faster and you can't get out of it? What if it carries you into a cave?

Out of interest, why? Looks like you can see a lot without using much energy
Fizzledrizzle69
It looks really relaxing, but that looming darkness next to him has me nervous. Plus I don't really like the idea of deep, dark water
Wikipedo
Yeah, I'd never go night diving ever...shudder
everythingisalieexceptthestuffthatisnt
I don't like being in the open water, but this makes me feel like it would be sooo relaxing as long as there's somebody there to yank me out

I can't swim in deep water. Just not knowing what's in there is terrifying to me
Cazzobello
Imagine that he can not swim away from the current...
ChromeEagle
If the current is only moving him laterally, what's preventing him from surfacing?
lexaiden
...than you must watch this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQITWbAaDx0
MrMcFartington
Watched it. That is also otherworldly.
KentDA
The idea of scuba diving makes me uncomfortable. I'm not clastrophobic but something about the idea of being reliant on 1/2
TheHighCourt
You get accustomed to the scuba mask to breathe really quickly, surprisingly. It's amazing breathing underwater. Defs freediving here tho
MyFavoriteDayOfTheWeekIsPizza
Did he have scuba gear? Looks like he was free diving, which is scarier imo.
Simon1FA
No fins?!
KentDA
the tubes, the mask and all that, the idea is just unsettling.
KillerTofu615
This dude is free diving. No breathing gear. Even more terrifying.
Throrf
Closest you can get to flying.
Salpinus
Bit of time since I did it (had 100+ dives in 5 years), I always got super anxious going down. But once at the bottom it's so serene
Salpinus
It's so amazing you just let that anxiety go. All the fishies, and everything else there. Once had a giant manta ray below me. Totes awesome
Fizzledrizzle69
I would never be able to get off the boat lol
Halfsharkhalfbee
Im the same, tried it once but as soon as I looked up and saw the top of the water I lost my shit and up I went.
waphles
It is the most serene, calming experience once you get over the initial anxiety. You're weightless in essentially a new underwater world.
shmekie
I'm not sure I could get over that anxiety
Efreeti
It should, it's why you never dive alone. Those currents can be almost impossible to get out of in the wrong circumstances.
overpolitemidwesterner
Agreed, but this current won't hold you under water, when stuff diving you float miles along the reef in currents like this
Mongoliasucks
Although I agree currents shouldn't be fucked with. Someone is definitely filming that so he's not alone.
TheOne11111
I too, like when angels capture the perfect angle
mafiamojo
But how do you know? I don’t see anyone else
Mongoliasucks
Haha
Efreeti
Ah, yeah, sorry, I thought that was obvious. I didn't mean the guy in the gif was trapped by the current.

It was obvious, lol, Idk why they thought you didn't realize

Why not, are you sleeping in the sea? I'm just saying, experience, preparation, and not diving alone are key.
