IDK how to swim, but I have no urgency to learn after reading these stories.
So brace yourselves, because here are just 25 of the wildest experiences people have had while deep diving:"I was 18 meters down when my air went bad. It had a weird metallic sugary taste to it, and I started losing consciousness. I pointed myself up and pulled my BCD , and about 6 meters from the surface, I blacked out.""When I woke up, I was being hauled into the dive boat; I blew both my eardrums and haven't been able to dive since.
On the boat, they called up a rescue boat from Mahle to come out and meet us. He was in decompression for a couple of days, I think. But he was fine. I know this because four days later, they caught him about to dive again at a different resort. I got air trapped in the pipe between my ear and throat, which was painful and gave us a scare, but ultimately I was fine.""I'm a rescue diver, and I was diving in a submerged blue hole in The Bahamas, and a diver went missing.
"The doctors got me hooked up and on fluids, checked my dive logs while the decompression chamber was set up, and then got me in there with a nurse. Eight hours in a tube about the length of a car but as wide as maybe a double bed? I was on oxygen and hooked up to an IV, and it was so loud, with all the air rushing in. As soon as I got to 'depth,' the pain vanished. It was crazy.
"I was relatively relaxed at this point since I knew exactly the procedure to follow, having just practiced it. So I’m slicing my finger across my throat at the instructor to indicate I’m out of air, but she wags her finger to say no, slices her own throat, and then points to my buddy... It’s not my turn to do the drill; it’s my buddy’s turn.
"“After about 10 minutes, everyone had split up to do a bit of exploring, and I checked the amount of air I had. It was in the red zone on the meter, pretty much empty. The only person I could see was my brother, who was more experienced than me. He saw it and quickly swam over to the instructor, who was quite far away. I was just staring at it, not knowing what to do, as in the moment I'd completely forgotten any of my training.
As I reached the guide, my air stopped again. I figured it was no big deal, like the previous two times, and continued. I thought to myself,I panicked. I started taking quicker and quicker breaths, but I forced myself to stop that; I knew that was the worst thing I could do. I spun around to the guide and started pounding my fist on my chest: That was the sign for ‘I can't breathe!’ He seemed to notice and started walking away. I could only hope that he was taking me to the boat.
