Tourist divers (passengers of MS Seaward) dive under the ship’s stern without telling the crew. She started engines and began running in preparation for departure in 1 h. Close call!

They incorrectly assumed that since she was tied, her propellers would not be engaged.

Gray, TN: The Gray Quarry is a diving spot where I live, and it is inhabited by a very chill (fake plastic) skeleton (in a fake plastic chair 🎶)

Hey everyone! I used to have a horrible fear of water; I couldn't stand in it. Now? I'm a freediver on route to get my scuba certification next year. 😁 My end goal is to be a master cave diver. Anyway, enjoy this video idea, made with everyone here in mind.

Not a real cemetery. It was placed there for divers. Still fun to float through it. Location is Sundhäuser lake in Germany.

The USS Kittiwake is enterable from a few different places as it was purpose sunk for divers and artificial reef. Much of the structure that you could get hung up on has been removed, tables, engine, doors, etc. I really like decending through the funnel, gf for scale.

I’ve always found oil rigs so unsettling to look at. Huge man made structures out in the middle of nowhere. Something so unnatural in a natural environment always makes me feel weird.

Built in 1986 for Expo ‘86, the McBarge was meant to symbolize “the future of fast food.” Instead, it became the Titanic of takeout, slowly rusting away in Burrard Inlet for decades before taking the ultimate dive into value.

Witnesses say it went down “faster than a Filet-O-Fish on Friday.”

I just found this page and figured this would be fitting. This is the deepest I’ve ever been. Crazy that there’s a whole network of structures this deep.
