what I like about walking underwater instead of swimming is that it seems like your on the moon. Slow tiny steps. Water and space are really similar. You float in both and you can't breathe in both. You naturally don't walk in them so when you do, it makes it seem like a different experience, if that makes sense.
Thank you for the compliment. I modified a fishing net to fit a gopro mount. I removed the net and used the used the retractable pool. If this is something you want to do then you will need a red lense and the water proof housing. Depending on how deep you plan on going. The lense I used is for 15 - 30'. Figure out how deep you will be going. Have a great time.
No. When you equalize the sinus pressure in your head, you can adjust to the over head water pressure. as you descend, pinch your nose then softly blow your nose to relieve pressure. The guilds were very helpful.
my family had taken a snorkeling boat out to go see part of the Great Barrier Reef in Australia last June, and only after we got back to land did I see they had one of these tours available. My reaction was, "Now, I could role play as one of Captain Nemo's crew from '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea' if I had seen that earlier."
it looks like you have your own camera down there. Was this a ship excursion? All the ones listed on Carnival say no cameras. They force you to buy the pics from them.
As long as your not doing back flips and you can keep your balance, you'll be fine. the guilds mentioned that before we started. I felt completely safe. It was fun to do. This is a good way to "get your feet wet". Ocean walker.
Nice. I've always figured the photos or videos of the adventure are available at an extra cost. Anyone can take a camera, or is this a promo? Where/how did you mount your GoPro?
I did this it’s a lot more fun than it looks I’ve used scuba gear in a large pool once and would say this is not really at all like it more like really deep snorkeling would definitely recommend if you don’t have a license
Lung over expansion is hardly what I'd call a risk because it's so easy to avoid. As long as you never hold your breath while ascending from a scuba dive, it will not happen to you, simple as that. The major risks with scuba diving that are harder to avoid are decompression sickness, nitrogen narcosis, reverse block, and ear barotrauma, but these can all be avoided as well if you know what you're doing.
Yes but these people are hardly trained. They don't know that and it is natural for persons to hold their breath. If the helmet is lost i could see many people's response to helmet loss to rise to surface holding their breathe...
I still woldn't feel 100% safe. I t would be better if it was attached to the body in some way. What would happen if someone fall off. Think about it :>
Wow I can't believe people actually signed up for this garbage why not go scuba diving or even snorkeling and actually get to see and experience the fish also you see that path when they were putting that in it destroyed the reef and it's disturbing the ocean go scuba diving and snorkeling you will do much less harm to the environment and experienced more
hmm i think this is not that much fun as usual diving would be, cause u have to walk on these ways and dont feel the real weightless like u would with usual diving gear
I would imagine so, since the helmets would have to be open at the bottom (unless it makes a good seal around the neck or something.) Then again, how the hell would they equalize if they can't pinch their nose? It's possible to do it without pinching the nose but I hear that technique is very difficult... Regardless, you wouldn't be able to go very deep with these helmets...
Looks fun but if you try with Royal Caribbean be aware your won’t have proper thorough instructions. Ear popping is miserable upon descend. 2 minute instruction wasn’t enough
I do scuba diving and you can fall over easily so like I hat if they fell over and the water got in although I know there’s divers with them but like 😳
+VinnyTheMan -- You haven't fixed it yet. The text still reads "St, Maarten USVI." It should say just "St. Maarten" (or "Sint Maarten"). It's not in the US Virgin Islands nor the British Virgin Islands; it's in what was formerly called the Netherlands Antilles. Half the island (Sint Maarten) is part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and half (Saint-Martin) is a collectivity of France.
@@Wispysaur no its actually not cheaper and traing takes a couple hours me and my dad went to mexico and the day we git there we scheduled scuba for the next day and did training in like an hour
to me this is the most stupidest thing ok the one of them....i need to pay tons of money while waiting in line one behind other....and can couse sevear enjuries while i can freedive in here and go into that chopper
