I don't think the Blue hole is especially dangerous in itself. If the arch were at 100m, there might not be any deaths. The problem is that the arch is close enough to being safe to dive with regular scuba gear that people try it when they shouldn't.
There are several reasons. · The Blue Hole is relatively wide, and the entry to the Arch is at an odd angle, so it may not be right in front of you. · The Blue Hole is bottomless. There is a natural shelf at 110m, but missing that, you descend to the bottom of the Red Sea (which is why many bodies are not discovered). · Even if you do find the entrance, you need to pass through it. It's fairly long, there's an inward current and visibility may not be the greatest.
vonshtoyven: This video is NOT racist for ONE reason. I am RUSISAN and I am a DIVER. The idea for this movie titles, the "Idiosyncrasies of Russian Diving"came from 2 famous Russian movies: "Idiosyncrasies of Russian Hunting" and "Idiosyncrasies of Russian Fishing". Did you watch those movies? I realize it's hard for a non-Russian person to perceive the title correctly.
If they're not trained and qualified divers, they're just ignorant fucktards who ruin their parents lives because they want to be king Kong. More like dead dongs...
@HergotH01 at depth the amount of oxygen does not have to be as high because it is at much higher pressure, in fact, there is a point (around 200 feet) in which normal air (21% oxygen) becomes toxic. Like the video said, many divers will have a "bottom mix" with very low levels of oxygen, but they cannot breathe it at shallow depth because they will die of hypoxia. This is why they breathe on air or nitrox until a certain depth, then switch to bottom mix, then to decompression gas for deco
Speaking of Dive Courses. There's nothing wrong with PADI, but only doing the Open Water course is Not enough. Don't believe it is. The Open Water course is only absolute basic training. You need more training and knowledge to dive safely in water conditions other than the most basic recreational diving. The PADI instructors should emphasise repeatedly to their students that the open water course is only thought to be the very first step. And I think most instructors actually do. The CMAS diver training is more extensive. As a beginners CMAS student you get trained and certified to the level equivalent of Rescue Diver in the PADI system. That is far better as initial training. It should actually be mandatory for all diving systems to train their students up to Rescue Diver. That is actually the lowest level of knowledge to be expected of a diver, in order to dive safely and know what to do if something happens.
@chemicallust77 That's what everyone says now: "the law of natural selection". I must admit I can't argue with this statement anymore, I just returned from Dahab and after everything I have done and said about the Blue Hole accidents, etc I learnt that another 3 divers died in Sharm trying to establish their "personal record" (to dive below 100 m on one tank with air) so what can I say..?
Never go through the arch at Blue hole on just air, its deeper than 60 metres so you'll get narced and also the partial pressure of oxygen in air at that depth is poisonous. You need to be properly trained and have additional cylinders of trimix to go down to those kind of depths.
That's because of the pressure. It is possible to breathe a mix of a few percent oxygen, but only at high pressure (10% oxygen is breathable at twice atmospheric pressure, or ten metres depth; 5% oxygen is breathable at four times atmospheric pressure, or thirty metres depth.) In fact, beyond a point, it becomes vital to have a lower fraction of oxygen, otherwise the diver risks being exposed to too high a pressure of oxygen and may suffer oxygen toxicity.
Is there another reason except poor visibility in certain days for missing the entrance in the Arch? The tunnel seems pretty large.. And why, if the blue hole is like 100 meters deep, and the entrance lies at 50-60 meters, some divers may search for it deeper and deeper without eventually reaching a bottom? I heard of divers whose bodies were never recovered..
@HergotH01 Months, some for example have to work on a project at 170 meters deep. They will have a home there and everything (like a glass upside down under water, but then as accomodation). You must understand that when pressure goes up, to keep a volume of a container (for example your lungs) at the same volume, you have to increase the amount of particles ( pressure x volume = pressure x volume). So if the pressure is 10 times higher, there are 10 times more particles --> enough to support...
Well, amoungst german cave divers there is a saying: There are two main reasons for dive accidents unexperience being the first experience being the second.
@mikelching We just explained to you that scuba diving and free diving are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT things. What you are trying to tell us now is: "Why the hell they can't climb the Everest if you can just have a small jet to see the top of it".
· Furthermore, the bottom of the Arch slopes downwards, even after you pass through. If you use it as a reference point, you will continue to the bottom. · Keep in mind, that nitrogen narcosis may kick in already at 24m (on regular air), so it's effect is significant at 60m. You are not thinking clearly, and mistakes are easy to make.
@HergotH01 (continuation-->) so the same way: oxygen is a particle. So for example, at 170 meters below the surface. Pressure will be 17 times higher than on land, so if you fill you lungs, they will contain 17 times the amount of oxygen. (and of course 17 times the amount of the other gasses that are present in air). So enough oxygen can bind with your hemoglobin to support you metabolism.
Интересно почему азот опьяняет, а гелий нет? И тот и тот газ химически очень инертен. Вообще то гелий довольно дорог. Можно ли использовать аргон как носитель?
@DanJVintage At that depth the air in the tank is compressed and if you're inexperienced or out of shape you'll fly through it fast. The people waving their arms around to stabilize themselves were used as examples of novice talent, everything is done with your b/c vest and fins. So, if you're wasting energy, and breathing hard at depth, and don't have a spare tank, it's not lookin good. Also, if you get nitrogen narcosis and just pass the fuck out, I mean...that's self explanatory.
Seems like deep divers and high-altitude climbers are cut from the same cloth. They are hyper-aware of the risks, but feel compelled to push the boundaries anyway. Experience doesn't seem to be a guarantee that you'll survive.
@overseasmedia sorry i wasnt exact in my wording, i know that its not oxygen and some run tri-mix etc and what not but the point of my statement was... how can a man with one breath traverse such a distance, holding his breath. With no fins. While some running, air, tri mix w.e... some using tanks, and fins, and being able to breath,, cannot make it? I understand the extremes of both sport but to me that part doesn't make sense.

Idiosyncrasies of the russian character? As if russians are the only ones to take unnecessary risk and parish in the blue hole... great depths have attraction to all mankind and close to 200 people have died in this tragic yet magnificent place over the years. Hopefully this will raise more awareness, respect, and responsibility for one’s actions.
@DanJVintage Do you understand the difference between "one breath" (free) diving and scuba diving???! I mean from physiological point of view?? If not then it's the right time to get more education about it before you say such nonsense as "a diver running out of oxygen"! In the film they say "AIR" is not NOT an "oxygen" air contains only 21% of O2. You have to learn more in order to understand what we are talking about. best, Elena
@SloppierTAY not everyone is the world record holder for unassisted freediving ... and though Willian Trubridge is a great diver/free diver he travelled through the Blue Hole at a depth of 55m whereas some of the people using scuba gear are attempting depths of 60-100m dives while under-prepared and with lack of training
@DanJVintage When scuba diving you breathe compressed air - matching the water pressure around you. At 58m you're breathing 4 times as much air as on the surface - which means air runs out quicker. Also, you need to ascend slower to decompress safely, which means you'll take time and need more air. In free diving you don't breathe compressed air so you can just swim back up. And William Trubridge is a mega athlete, not your average Joe. I would run out of air if diving 12m.
i would rather dive the arch after years of preparation with my monofin with a safety team in place However to do this you need to be able to do a equivalent dive of about 80m depth, and I'm not there yet :=( freediving the arch is much more rewarding and something you can realy be proud of sry for hating but just my opinion
I have had Nitrogen' Narcosis... While diving a Shipwreck in Fla Key's... Thanx to my training & not panicking, I was able to buddy breath off my diving buddy's octopus😯😨😵🏝
You dont have to use trimix for that dive, the top of the arch is at 170 feet at the deepest, which although is deep into the area of nitrogen narcosis, it is not the limit for narcosis or oxygen toxicity. Ive personally know people who used to dive well beyond 200 feet on air before mixed gas training was available.
No you can dive with Nitrox deeper. I've dived at 40 meters with 27% O2 while keep p.p. at 1.4. In theory you can dive up to 53.6 meters at p.p. 1.4 safe from O2 toxycity but it's pontless as you willl be heavily narced from Nitrogen. How you can risk dive Blue hole on pure air is beyond be.
padi in north america teaches about the hazards of deep diving. anyone diving too deep on air after padi certification would do so at their own stupidity and in no way at the fault of their training.
i was at 58 and it was incredibly bad feeling, i felt if i go 1 more meter i will have blackout or will loose my mind!!! i got 700 dives and im dm but anyway.....dont go under 50!
I’ve had over 200 dives and never even come close to getting harmed. The truth is that idiots are idiots in every context. Build a tower and eventually some idiots will fall off it
FuktigTrasa: True. And pay a close attention that's what I am talking about: A COMMON SENSE. I know there are tech divers dying in the Blue Hole and the other dive sites in Red Sea. And my reply is very stright: the majority of these divers don't have a proper dive training.
Wow, didn't know too many mistakes were made and that many divers who died that way only had one tank of air like Yuri Lipski did, that wasn't smart to be one of those people and all. People dive there every day too.
@yurihammo I know, I wondered that, too. Why Russians, specifically? Perhaps by some odd coincidence more Russians than other nationalities have died in this particular spot, but I would hardly think it was because they were Russians. That would be like saying that just because no Finns have died in this spot, that must mean Finns are very smart and cautious divers. The conclusion doesn't make any sense.
Nitrox doesn't affect the depth you can dive at? Yes it does. Go take a Nitrox course and then come back. Or, just go to 150ft on 36% and tell me how that works out for you.
To avoid complicated gas mixes and other potential technological difficulties, you could always just dive the arch with one breath of air...like this guy! /watch?v=hrXQbucZUDA
Acutally i have a hard time understanding that issue.. it's common sense. Dont bite off more than you can chew! If idon't feel comfortable because you know what i'm doing exactly and have enough experience i just ask someone who knows for advice, help and guidance. Only explanation to me is (as this video states) a lack of education about the dangers of going beyond your limits in diving. Sad thing anyway. It should be enjoyable and fun. I really wouldn't want to die like this.
Four open water dives and then you drop to 60 meters with an AL 80. Oh, that's smart! What do you have at 180 ft with a full AL 80, 3 minutes of air? Even if you dove with a steel 125 at 3500 lbs you only have about 5 minutes of air at that depth, let alone the nitrogen narcosis at that depth. This is truly being ignorant!
BarackMeBaby: Well, if you look at the memorials at Bells and read more about statistics (about 200 people died there) I wouldn't say that this dive "is not a problem"...
@DanJVintage freediving and scuba diving are completely different things... in a free dive you dive to much more shallow levels compared to a person scuba diving at greater then 40m you are required to have extensive diving training and special equipment to safely dive anything below 40m .... diving through the Blue Hole using only O2 and a 1 tank is sure to be dangerous and you will have a very high chance of death
And then William Trubridge takes a really big breath and just swims through it in his speedo.
I don't think the Blue hole is especially dangerous in itself. If the arch were at 100m, there might not be any deaths. The problem is that the arch is close enough to being safe to dive with regular scuba gear that people try it when they shouldn't.
Also - it looks easier and closer than it really is, enticing people to try it. It's an attractive deathtrap for inexperienced divers.
Sounds like Darwin award winners to me 😂
You have no idea what you are talking about hahahah

i don't get it - there is only bacteria there, why dive?
just because its deep? is it some ego based thing?
I await your reply
Dont know why people dive deep, it is ugly down there, most beautiful part is corals at depths 10-30m. I dont see any reason to do down deeper.
ohh, thats cus the wanna DIE.
Pol Pot you try to dive there then
To explore the unknown, what better reason?
If they're not trained and qualified divers, they're just ignorant fucktards who ruin their parents lives because they want to be king Kong.

Thank you very much for taking the time to explain it. I have a clear image in my mind now :)

Great film and good. Scuba.
the problem is the fact that in egypt you can do almost what you want, even whitout proper experience/certification: you just have to pay enough

that big black plate at 34 seconds, was the most famous death in the blue hole
I have a better idea...FOLLOW THE FUCKING RULES OF DIVING AND USE PROPER EQUIPMENT!!!!!
No.
No.
No.
Padi is for tourist that want to dive once or twice, look for CMAS, IANTD or Nelos schools, most professional divers detest padi courses

Don't forget NAUI it's very professional and extensive.
@EPR89 yeap hes badass
mizido , well, as you can seethere are others who were not that lucky!
@overseasmedia That's why freediving rules!!!
i have dived the blue hole - you just have to make sure that you;re sensible about doing it - if you are on a single tank - know you;re limits
@yurihammo I know, I wondered that, too. Why Russians, specifically?

dyingfly: Well that's what I am talking about. If you are diving the Blue Hole on 1 tank that means you are "not sensible" (i.e. lack of knowledge)
then why can't they just swim up the ocean and wait for a rescue rather then swimming all the way back and risking life🤷🏻♂️
@edmonddantes64 not necisarily the commentator... more likely the script writer
Crazy
I bet snorkeling qualifies me. I'm going to dive the arch, too. Bye!
Four open water dives and then you drop to 60 meters with an AL 80. Oh, that's smart! What do you have at 180 ft with a full AL 80, 3 minutes of air?

Mostly, it's the drowning.
someones done it with 1 breath lawl

tri mix dose not guarantee that nitrogen narcosis will not happen
people can got here with nitrox
sounds like he says 16 msw, when its sub 55 msw.
Because Egypt that's why
Complicated skills like taking off your mask under water and acheiveing neutral bouyancy? You learn that in the swimming pool!
@DanJVintage freediving and scuba diving are completely different things... in a free dive you dive to much more shallow levels compared to a person scuba diving at greater then 40m you are required to have extensive diving training and special equipment to safely dive anything below 40m .... diving through the Blue Hole using only O2 and a 1 tank is sure to be dangerous and you will have a very high chance of death
i stay there for 2 times and i life
gsotodotcom: That's NOT what I meant.
Wow I get it now
zzboobzz: Thanks a lot.
Nitrox doesn't affect the depth you can dive at, just how long you can stay AT depth.

You need special training.
