When I was 11 years old I was in an intermediate swimmers class in a lake and took a backwards step over a concrete retaining wall and in to deep water. I panicked and exhaled, sank to the bottom in about ten feet of water and struggled until I went unconscious. When they got to me I had stopped breathing and my heart had stopped beating. They did CPR and brought me back. The last memories I had was of my eyes being open and looking up at the surface and thinking of how pretty the sunlight looked as it sparkled off of the waves on the surface. Then things went slowly black, I heard a buzzing sound like the sound of cicadas on a warm summer's day and that was the last I remembered.

At the end, for whatever those few seconds were, after I stopped struggling, it was peaceful and I will always remember that moment.
-------------------------------------------
I am from a family who had spent a great deal of time in the water. My father owned three ships, a dive-salvage vessel and two tugboats. My parents met when my mom saw this guy working on the deck of a boat tied up to the pier. My father was a hardhat diver with the canvas suit, brass helmet and lead shoes and a hose to the surface. He did lots of work in the Chicago river and Lake Michigan in the 1950's and 1960's. You might say that water is in my blood.

Eventually I became a very good swimmer, the drowning did not scare me off. In my 20's I earned my PADI certification and eventually made it to advanced-open-water with a few specialties of night, under-ice and wreck diving. Even in February we would cut a hole through the ice of a lake and dive under the ice (very creepy) and not for too long.. In a wet-suit (not a dry suit) that water that gets in the suit is incredibly cold and sits right on top of your kidneys inside of your suit.

But on deep diving,

One time I did a bounce-dive down to 110' and was finding it harder to think straight the deeper I went. What shook me out of it was when I landed in a pile of abandoned steel cables on the bottom and was terrified of getting tangled up. So I shot up 20-30 feet (pushed some air in to my BCD), checked my gauges, my time and did a few dive stops on ascent.

After that I kept my fun diving to the 20-40 feet depths where at least there are interesting things to see. When you go deep its dark and cold, not that much fun and you need to mess around with decompression stages.

For people finding this extremely confusing, I found the perfect explanation surrounding this on Reddit.

An explanation:

It’s called Nitrogen narcosis.

He dove without monitoring his ascension rate, meaning he had no idea how fast he was going down, aside from feeling increasing pressure on his ear drums. He also had no vision at all, meaning he simply had no clue in what direction he was going, if at all.

For non-divers: the lower you go, the less time you have before you absorb too much nitrogen, which causes you to enter a drunken and even narcotic state. for reference: if you stay at 18m depth you can stay for at least half an hour, whereas at 40m you can't stay longer than a few minutes before it gets at dangerous levels. Also: at 90m the oxygen becomes toxic, due to the pressure. You breathe in so many oxygen particles in one breath at that pressure, you actually need to mix in various other gasses to counter it.

So Yuri literally got more drunk-like as he went down, which probably made him not monitor his descent in the first place, on top of the fact that he was busy filming. in short: he was increasingly drunk-like and very distracted.

Then he hit the 90m mark at the solid plateau: considering no diving school teaches anything past 40m (44 if rescue diving), imagine that he simply panicked. He knew this was it for him. When you're at 90m, your buoyancy is so low (b/c the pressure is so high) that unless you have an extremely floatable balloon or vest, you can't get up. You'd be exhausted before even getting halfway up. On top of that, he has equipment weighing him down: tanks, camera, extra batteries, etc.

So in short: he went down, and had no idea how fucked he was until it was too late.

The fact you can hear his pain is what makes you value life even more....

DangerZone

He's not screaming in pain he's just struggling to breathe at that depth and pressure. Get it right.

As if we will never die? Who knows what's waiting for us

Why did he not swim up

@Kanaya poop my exact thought lol

@Velvet Crowe you can’t. Your soul is eternal, you’ll go to an eternal lake of fire. Instead, seek Jesus and repent and have eternal bliss

For people who aren’t aware of the story. Basically as u go down there, there’s a tunnel that spans a length which he wanted a photo inside of the tunnel. He asked a professional diver if he’d take him down to get the photos n he said no u need at least 2 weeks of training to which yuri told him he leaves in 2 days so that’s not an option. He asked several other divers who all told him the exact same thing, he decided that he could do it and a man was seen going into the blue hole n never came back up to the surface

That's basically the story of a dumbass
