The Divers who go down working in the dark depths get my full respect too.

I wanted to become a saturation diver for a little while when I was younger and unsure of what direction to take, but I soon destroyed my inner ear and it no longer became an option.

I did some private security work to pay for university, and some of that involved being on rigs and tankers. I was on a small supply ship off the coast of Mozambique once and we got hit by a massive storm. The thing was rolling so bad that we had to pack our bags for going overboard, and I was spewing my guts up from seasickness. I went up to the bridge to see the captain—a lifelong seaman— and found him bent over and violently spewing into a bucket, lol. He said it was his first time being sick in decades.

It´s a hard life at sea. My step brother was in the Merchant Navy for years & he was mainly i think on Oil Tankers but i remember once he was on a Diving vessel.
Told me some crazy stories, was cool because he brought watches & electrical goods back from Japan 
aye he was a real sailor drunk Black heart Rum straight

I had a roommate out of college that did that in the gulf after Katrina. He made sick money and said most of his time was spent in a decompression chamber with very little actually working. A dude on his team died when he panicked because his mask was leaking and opened up his helmet. They found him not far from the dive bell or whatever it was. That spooked him and he quit. We were 24 and he was making over $30k a month.

I´ve read about Divers seeing some weird shit down there...a guy i worked with did diving not deep sea diving but he told me you can lose your sense of direction if not careful.
Navigation in deep dark water has to good.

@ 6:47 you see the body being released to make a last journey upwards out of the depths...R.I.P

I’d like to say I could do that but That is pretty scary shit. Does that whole thing move with the ocean? Or is that just my eye. I guess it makes sense to move with the waves but that would freak me out. Fuck that shit.

When i was young, i thought Oil rigs were built so they were fastened and stuck in the ground


A powerful tsunami/hurricane/storm could prolly turn it into disaster quick



For oil rigs, towering behemoths of steel and concrete, achieving buoyancy is a feat of careful planning and engineering.

These structures are meticulously designed to displace enough water to generate a buoyant force greater than their own weight, thus allowing them to remain afloat.

It wouldn't be a job for me either but I would probably ( if younger) work on a rig in shallow water.
The floating rigs in deep water..fuck that !

They will attack & normally in a group.
Apparently they change colours when distressed or in attack mode.
Seen a few videos where this has happened & as in the below video they'll drag you down deep

I couldn’t imagine the old wooden sailing ships that came across this type of weather.

He had videos that had big ass fish, grouper I think. He’d go down over 300’ and weld on shit and torch apart old oil rigs in the Gulf
