Diver Explains 'Netflix' Last Breath!

WoW That's Crazy 🤿

F♡ck this. I'd hafta be PAID to do this sh¡t.

He a lucky man ,someone was watching over him that day .

That was d work of GOD that he survive

This channel has thoughtful scriptwriters and an excellent narrator - facts presented without contrived dramatic sensationalism that less professional post-accident/incident analysts interject into their reporting. Good job!

There's a good interview you should see about this. I'll post the link or the last bit which will get you there if YT won't allow links.😊
❤ Great job explaining this accident!

Not sure I want to work somewhere where an amber alert is common. ⚠️😳💯..... 🤣

The cold water most certanly saved his life

Pretty amazing stuff it’s takes balls of steel to be a saturation diver just imagine working hundreds or thousands of feet below sea level where the only light is from the helmet and equipment you have not only do you need to constantly monitor your life giving gauges you hear stories all the time of divers feeling an enormous shift in water right near them from behind or wherever like there was just a very big animal very close to them but still far enough away to be out of the light sounds like one of the most terrifying jobs you could ever imagine

It's weird to think that if the natural air and atmosphere around us were slightly different than it is... We could all be talking in chipmunk voices and that would be the accepted norm.

ur not a diver hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahh what...you said on a video "rec divers dont have to do deco only saturation divers do" hahahahahahahahahaahahahah youve never dove deeper than 20 feet dude...ur not a diver.

Why don't they use an anchor system to be tied on the bell. So they won't need a ship to stay positioned.

This means Captain America is probable!

:28 duncan allcock? thats a great last name

Dam this shit is fuken scary honestly wonder if it's worth tha money

This is up there with the craziest survival stories/rescues. Blows my mind, happy he made it.

The history of heart surgery includes the first practical use of lowering the body temperature. Canadian Surgeon Dr. Bigelow studied hibernation in mammals and found that tissue did not require as much oxygen to stay alive when the human body was cooled to 81F (27.22C) degrees. On September 2, 1952 a pair of surgeons at the University of Minnesota successfully repaired the heart of a 5 year old girl with a congenital heart condition, by cooling her body, and stopping her heart for something like 10 minutes. Without cooling, the heart previously could be stopped for up to 4 minutes before recovery was considered most likely impossible.

I grew up in Greece. I remember watching dad fishing underwater and feeling proud of him. I started diving at 8 and fishing at 14. Summer meant diving with the other kids. Sounds funny but now at 58 I can say that in my life, the most important things I learned them from the dive. There is a feeling of eternal calm and silence that I cannot live without for long. For me, people who work in such depths are not motivated by money. They are philosophers and lovers of the greatest beauty of them all

Amazing story of survival

The complex chemistry involved here on so many levels is just astounding. God bless the brave men involved in such tasks.

"the amber alert is common" to be fair, there are alot of schools nearby so that explains it...

Binging your content mate. Freaking brilliant presentation in everyone I’ve watched. I’ve heard all of these stories before but feel like I’m learning way more in your videos then any others. Again, liked shared and subed. God speed !

Very informative. Thank you.

I wasn’t too far from the location. Aboard DSV ( dive vessel)southern Atlantic.

I hope he got a new job

Former commercial diver and SCUBA instructor here.
Excellent video explanation.
Well written, edited and to the point.

I'm training to do this atm. Shot wild

AMEN

Am amazing story, and great storytelling. Thank you.

Talk about a miracle, inage being the rescue diver watching a man apparently slowly die only for he to come back from death. Insane

Every time I watch these stories I am holding my breath and grateful for the men who are determined, knowledgeable and able to engage in these activities. This is moon landing on steroids in my opinion.

I think that the cooling effect might be more important than you think. The military ran cryogenic research back in the late 1940s and early fifties. They found the key to making it survivable was how fast and even you could do the process. They could cryogenicly cool hamsters, and made the first Microwave in order to thaw them evenly. That he was cooling from expelling heat from his torso as well as the from his skin into the surrounding water helped cool him down fast enough that he didn't see much damage from the process. The heated Water solution to thaw him served the same purpose.

This story has always been so cool to me, crazy what the human body can do under the right conditions.

i let out an audible happy laugh when he said he started breathing.

so glad he made it

What an incredible story. Thank God he survived !

There's a saying among some EMTs and doctors, you're not dead till you're warm and dead.
Specifically in reference to cases like these. It's not uncommon for someone to fall into a frozen over lake and survive for minutes, sometimes hours. It's crazy.

In the military that would deserve VCs all around. I hope the dive crew at least got a big bonus. $ are better than a medal and they deserve it. The insurance payouts would have been huge.

Sat down on his own...thatta boy

Probably a combination of factors saving him tbh, the fact he was in saturation gear with a drysuit sealed to a helmet means he had another couple spare breaths worth of gas in the helmet, the suit, and the severed umbilical (which was probably still turned on, hence his helmet slowly filling up). In hypothermia and not moving, sitting still on a platform, in an oxygen-enriched environment, multiple minutes on a single breath isn't that big of a feat and technical freedivers have made it upwards of 20 minutes on a single breath of heliox before while remaining conscious, although that's higher oxygen near-surface mix and with pure O2 prebreathing.

Best explanation of partial pressure of oxygen that I have ever heard/seen.

As a paramedic I've seen drug addicts blue is paste with their heart beating maybe one or two times a minute maybe gasping a breath of air every two minutes and after 15 to 30 minutes they come around once the antidote takes effect
.. but they live can't be good for the brain..

Thank God Chris survived. 🥲 🙏🏻

If this story interests you, check out Anna Bagenholm story. Fell into frozen river and got Trapped under ice for 40 mins. Was clinically dead for 3 hours, before being resuscitated and making a full recovery.

When I watch one if these videos I'm not expecting to laugh but that diver talking like a squirrel inside the habitat go6 me

I have nothing but Respect for Deep sea divers , You could not pay me enough to do What they do..
