Great video. Mind boggling. Especially when you think of giant ships that are sitting in water only 200-300ft down. And the fact that other ships and boats travel over them
I did a very similar demo with my son when he was a new diver. It really is a different perspective. I t is also neat to be on a platform, deck or cliff that is at one of these measurements and look down to the ground.
Hello @AirwolfCrazy. We have a local swim park near us that has a 20 feet platform you can jump off of. To see 20 feet on the ground is nothing, but very intimidating from up top.
@LakeHickoryScuba indeed. I still remember my first time at 100 feet deep. It was the max depth of the quarry and I had to lay on the rocks to get my gauge to read 100. I then rolled over and looked up. Looking through a 100 foot water column with the sun rays going through the water was an amazing site!
You're right; it's not that far. But if you go and stand next to a tall building and count up to the 13th floor, that does look a long way up! Fortunately with my diving you mostly can't even see which way the surface is if you're at more than 20m. So it's not intimidating at all and depth is just a number.
So what I'm understanding from this video is that you always have a 132 feet of visibility, too. Is that right? 😁😆 Good video! I work at a pool that is 25yds long and often find myself comparing that length to scuba depth (~75ft) and thinking "hmm, it's not that far!"

Makes sense, I kinda thought about it before but never put it into words.
Glad you liked the video @j.m.b5441.

Glad you liked the video @LodgeMan2011.
Good presentation! .... Folks really need to do this for themselves to get a real feel for it.

Hello @timgosling6189, sounds like the diving we have here, most of our water is chocolate soup.

Hello @NRVdiver, I wished we had that good of visibility here locally. Unfortunately, for us, we have 5 feet on a good day.
@LakeHickoryScuba haha I hear that! I couldn't help but poke a little bit of fun 😁 We just don't get any clear water 'round these parts, do we 🤣
