@@sacha_mskyYou are ignorant about freediving or shallow water blackout. There are little to no warning signs and then you literally just blackout. There's no time to switch to a pony tank. You might as well scuba

Freedive recovery vest. It might have saved his life. There is a lot of ignorance in freediving and even in groups many act as lone rangers. yes a DIVE BUDDY is paramount. Getting CERTIFIED in this sport is paramount. May he rest in peace and may you find the same with time. God Bless you 💐
If we are freediving in a buddy system after learning how to react in a proper course, the risk is minimal: 3 or 4 fatalities occured in 50 years worldwide..Which is way safer than playing soccer or riding a horse..On the other hand, for spearfishing WITHOUT a buddy: hundreds of fatalities occur every year worldwide. We can all have a bad day, if we are alone underwater it will be our last. And when i speak of buddy system, "a friend spearfishing nearby somewhere in the area" is not a buddy. A proper buddy watches you every single time you ascent and keeps watching while you do your recovery breathing.
Don´t go alone is the first thing you learn if you attend a formal freediving course. But unfortunately a lot of spearos consider that they don´t need a course..and instead they will listen to their mates who will tell them to hyperventilate and to dive overweighted.
I’ll just say honestly that although Iv never dived alone, the buddies I dive with really aren’t watching me or each other. We typically have a lot of space between us while spear fishing. I guess it’s “slightly” better then diving alone? but the risks are still absolutely there if one of us blacks out. It’s a tough situation for me because my dive buddies are all older and more experienced then me. I’m afraid of make a point to change our habits they’ll just look at me as arrogant or paranoid and then I’ll have zero dive buddies to go with.
Don't be stupid! Speak up! They will respect you for speaking your mind, and if they are dismissive, they are dangerous idiots who you probably shouldn't be diving with anyway. Even as a 18yr old, I had no problems speaking up about something dangerous or how something could be done better or more efficiently. So speak up or it may cost a life...and that life could be yours.
@@100subscribeswithnovidoe5 thanks, I tried again this week but I cant get past 2m depth because my ears hurt and wont equalize, I have bought a weight belt so I will try that - if im sinking then I can concetrate on equalising and not expend so much effort getting under the water, thanks
i have no idea why the guy tried to swim over to the grouper, grab it and swim up with it....it was paralyzed and doing circles...wasn't going to hole up
Maybe common sense practices are warranted to reduce risk as much as possible. Once you shoot the fish, do you normally make haste for the surface, even if you're feeling okay?
I am new to spearfishing. Been a scuba diver with a good number of dives. Fairly athletic. I do not have someone to dive with near me, since I live a good 10 hour drive away from the next location where i can hunt. While i would like to have a buddy with me. That is just not feasible here. HOWEVER: as with most of the footage of spearfishing accidents... why do they all mess up so badly: - Hectic movement - Swimming after a fish that is already secured(just use a buoy) instead of going up calmly. - You start "working" on the fish while you go up. WHY? Go up. Do it there. (if its because of sharks in the water, you need a buddy. 2-3 would be even better) - Diving in deep, open water(often murky) alone. wtf I understand, that there is a certain risk, diving alone. Even if just from the shore in 10m depth. Even if you do everything right. But i would rly like to know what % of accidents would not happen if people did not constantly push their limits and just do what is safe and tested. Use a float line. Do not go to deep. Be well rested. Not overweight. Well trained. Well hydrated. Just go down. Get the targeted fish or not. Go back up. Calm and controlled. With enough time that you breath comfortably from the beginning. You get a Buddy for anything else and then you should STILL be careful.
I agree with this sentiment. At one point in my life it was either dive alone (scuba or free) or don't go. I took every precaution to ensure my own safety. People knew where i was going, i often had sone kind of surface lookout. I used an smb, stayed well within my limits of depth and time and carried a pony cylinder (with independence reg) when scuba diving. Sometimes it is just not practical to be follow every safety rule.
@@steves1015 I want to stress for other people, surface lookouts, people knowing where you are going is pretty much not having any sort of buddy. basically it will aid in recovery of your body, and that's it. You need a buddy who knows how to rescue blackouts, watching you the whole dive.
@@sacha_msky you're talking about getting to a body that's already blacked out for over a few minutes (if body is floating somehow) vs a buddy getting to you right as you black out. Diving without another trainedbbuddy is pretty unacceptable but I believe in the right for someone to do something reckless and taking themselves out of the gene pool.
90% of my life I've been diving alone, not because I wouldn't like to have a dive buddy but because I don't know anybody that dives, and I'm usually in remote places in the world where there is nobody else diving, and I don't know anybody that can go with me I do take every precaution, I always stay well within my breath-hold limits, very conservatively, set my watch with a timer to make sure as soon as that alarm goes off I'm headed up, always go up immediately and don't worry about the fish until I get some breaths That's all I can do It's either a dive alone or don't dive
@@sacha_mskyisn’t that another one of those “first things they teach you not to do”? If you’re freediving they say don’t do that because there’s a good chance you’ll rupture your lungs on the way up. Especially since you’re introducing new buoyancy to your body making you ascend faster.
You know, there will be always some "Rambos" out there that think that diving, free diving, spear fishing is easy as pie, they are stubborn and take risks, i've know 2 of those that said that they were ok doing that alone, one diving and another spearfishing, both are dead now, the guy that was diving was even a Medical Doctor, died at 60 meters depth from unknown causes, body was recovered the other day, the spear fishing kid loved to do that at night, alone ! Disappeared and was never found, some gear was recovered, weight belt, parts of the the swim suit, it was suspected because the kid was alone and further more he didn't even had a diver's buoy, that most likely when he was coming to the surface was hit by a fishing boat that were common and in great number at night on that spot, 2 deaths that maybe could be avoided if the followed the security procedures.
90% of the blackouts happen at the surface after they take 2 -3 breaths. That's what happened int he second vidoe. He hit the surface and blacked out at the surface.
Listen for the spasm sounds he starts to make in his throat in the last 2-3 metres - classic indicator of near drowning. The same as he starts to sink after surfacing momentarily
@@Nicolas22a You can learn more at my free safety course at www.Freedivingsafety.com. When you take a breath of air, the oxygen does not instantly get to your brain. The oxygen gets into your lungs, then the oxygen has to go into the blood via the alveoli in the lungs. Then the heart has to beat 10-15 times to get the oxygenated blood from the lungs into the brain. It just takes time for the oxygen in the lungs to reach the brain. Make sense?
If they had a spearfishing buoy they wouldn't need to chase the fish. Shoot the fish, drop the gun. Swim-up grab the gun and fish are attached to your buoy pull up the line to gun and get fish. Bam 10x safer.
It is okay to dive alone if you know how to stop believing on the term "PUSH THROUGH LIMITS" and even if you know your limits just please do not freedive deep if you are alone 4 to 5 meters is enough for you boy
I'm in Ensenada Mexico. It's just how it is here. But Americano just value more and risk less. Why you have to go so deep? Harvest sea cucumber inside is better than scallops. Use surfboard to drop lobster cages even far. Use rocks as weights. Lobster everywhere. Why live in the North lol. Learn to make abalone soft. Drop jars for octopus. Mix it up
I spearfish freedived alone couple times..though i never pushed myself to the limit. I don't care about no fish that bad for me to risk blacking out. As soon as i see a fish, i go down, shoot, and as soon as i shoot i head straight back to the surface.. Fish or not😅(And i don't use weight belts or weight) ... If i wanna stay down any longer i would use tanks, simple, i dont have gills. Last couple times i went with a buddy tho.. And we're both Ocean Lifeguards
Just make a device to inflate should you black out you back to the surface. If you 2 minute down an back up like a timers once you don't reset it . It would infant . Just before you dive under set it too your time you take to go down an back up again be it 2 3 4 5 minutes eg... 21st century we can't make a device to inflate ....

And I beg to differ with all those naysayers that come into the boat, calling people Rambo and foolish and all that other stuff It's either dive alone or don't dive Simple as that
More people die in groups than solo by a wide margin. Always make sure you take the time to breathe and get your air intake up before diving back down. You should always be mindful of this.
@@Randoverse no offense, but given by your initial statement is an obvious and easily disapproved, I don't think your "rules" are very smart.

They dont have a sense of how much oxygen is left in their body they always have a feeling that they have enough oxygen left so after running out of oxygen their brain goes to sleep lol

@@ImmersionFDI think you’re confused on what I mean. The guy stopped making progress upward and began swimming in place. I would have been down there by the time he blew air out.

not ashamed, because they are not staged. The first video that showed the blackout, there is not footage of the rescue , because once the blackout happened the rescuer Ren Chapman can't film the rescue and do the rescue at the same time. That's why the footage only shows the moment of blackout, after that he was too busy rescuing him to be filming. These are not staged.
no man he look really calm during the dive, he did nothing wrong he didnt even rush to go to the surface....he went down to catch the fish even if there was no need for this....if that was a blackout, it is a rare one
blackouts are not common but this is what most of them look like. In most circumstances you would know that nothing is wrong. This is why its imperative that you dive with a buddy who knows what they are doing.
People just know when you do risk sports. Expect a fatality. Make sure you have you ducks in row ( if you die) If God wanted humans to be under water to catch fish. We wouldn’t have FINS.

I’d never dive again with anyone in the first clip. They ignored all the signs. The fish is never worth it.
What signs of a blackout did he ignore. He said he felt fine.
@@ImmersionFDI think you’re confused on what I mean. The guy stopped making progress upward and began swimming in place. I would have been down there by the time he blew air out.
incorrect! the first mandatory piece of information that EVERYONE should know about is knowing what depth you can actually dive to before you experience the bends. it occurs after 30 ft - basic diving knowledge 🤦♂
That’s scuba diving with tanks, this video is discussing freediving no tanks.
Do you actually pay attention to what you’re watching before you comment?
Good....
Alex Pullin died because of this
When I look on these footages, I'm presuming that you knew in advance that sombody soon would lose consciousness and got redy to it: prepared a camera, equipment and waited for the moment of his blackout, is it right? Then, why didn't you show the moment of his rescue, CPR etc?
Where did you see that a spearfisher had a partners who control his actions? It's just nonsense!
But, each and everyone freediver or spearfisher ahead of time must know: his limit of being under water, breath holding time, diving depth and, most importantly, his physical and psychological readiness for freediving and spearfishing.
If you are not sure, on the intuitive level, don't even get in the water! By the way, if you are not familiar with the basics of rescue on the water and under water - you will be completely useless! Because, you will kill both: the drowning person and yourself.
For recapitulation: all your footages are staged, and don't have any relation at all to a spearfisher's blackouts under water and their rescue. Not ashamed?
not ashamed, because they are not staged.
The first video that showed the blackout, there is not footage of the rescue , because once the blackout happened the rescuer Ren Chapman can't film the rescue and do the rescue at the same time. That's why the footage only shows the moment of blackout, after that he was too busy rescuing him to be filming.
These are not staged.
I just learn from the internet and do my dry static apnea training no courses or anything
the first one seems a bit fake
that' exactly what an underwater blackout while freediving looks like.
no man he look really calm during the dive, he did nothing wrong he didnt even rush to go to the surface....he went down to catch the fish even if there was no need for this....if that was a blackout, it is a rare one
blackouts are not common but this is what most of them look like. In most circumstances you would know that nothing is wrong. This is why its imperative that you dive with a buddy who knows what they are doing.
in almost every blackout you have done something wrong, most of the time that is pushing yourself...black outs dont come out of nowhere...
whatever you say.....bb
People just know when you do risk sports. Expect a fatality. Make sure you have you ducks in row ( if you die) If God wanted humans to be under water to catch fish. We wouldn’t have FINS.
Yet mankind has been free diving for food and sponges for thousands of years.
poor fish
All fish get eaten, the only difference is by what/whom.
