I love scubadiving with my OTS fullface mask.

Well done Chris N.

that training is fairly ineffective for real life conditions. When the dog falls through, followed by the kid you cannot stand on ice. Even when adults fall through you divers wearing 80 lbs of gear standing is ridiculous. And then put a tender standing right next to him! that's sport diving. nice to see tethers. pony bottles. Train on ice that is thin enough for a dog, a child, even an adult to fall through. Otherwise what is the difference between what we saw on the video and sport diving? Sadly - it's the training agency's fault, not the dive team.

Thank you so much for This very inspiring video

How does one look for a boat to get on? I'm a divemaster here in Washington and would love to get the chance to work on one.

Sharks man bull sharks.

Sharks bull sharks man…

Tom Trumper is the best urchin diver in California .

Great video, I appreciate the upload. It did raise some questions for me, do you have any knowledge on the state of the European diving market? I'd very much like to finish my degree in maritime archaeology and split my career between commercial diving and underwater archaeology since both fields can be lacking in work. Do you reckon this is feasible? Perhaps you've had some experience or connections with scientific diving as well

Since as far as I can remember I've always been fascinated by nature, especially by the sea. I ended up studying marine biology in England and loved it. What you speak about hits the nail on the head; the same things that attracted you also drove me. That feeling of discovery, and being on the frontlines. This same passion was transmitted to me by my professors, some of them legends in their field, and their love for it is contagious. Unfortunately, in my experience it has been incredibly tough finding jobs. Even having a decent resume, jobs are few and far between. I even got my commercial diving license 2 years ago to work for a pharmaceutical company that did research and marine organisms, but that didn't pan out. So while I still have the license I'm looking at doing other freelance work, maybe fishing for urchins... I've also done work as a consultant, was a teacher for a while, and lately I work as a scientific observer on fishing vessels. Last year I also got my Passive Acoustic Monitoring (PAM) training to land jobs that require acoustic surveying (e.g. near oil rigs or wind farms). That last one sounds like fun and looking to see what it's like. Fingers crossed... To those seeking to study marine biology, more power to you. Just keep in mind you truly have to love the subject, and possibly look at other sidejobs, because until the world starts valuing nature more, the budgets will be tight.

Great video! Might be the push I need...Marine biologist here. It's tough finding a job in the firld; so much competition and not much funding. I took up commercial diving in the hopes of securing a job at a local business that creates pharmaceuticals out of marine organisms. That didn't pan out, but now I'm looking to start my own thing with the commercial diving license. I guess now It would just be a matter of getting my own permit, gear, and try selling directly to restaurants. Fingers crossed!

I like diving equipment

Nice

Eric seems to be a legit nice guy

I’m 13 and tbh I would love to do this

This dude… 🤙🏼

I want to meet this amazing woman.

Would you be interested in working with a student that when he graduates from high school in Kansas would like to be in this industry. He is very motivated to learn and make a career out of all of this someday.

Bobby, I’m interested in working with you. I went to DIT and am interested your career.

Nice

I am Diving equipment technician working in uae

Nice video

If you can afford it, go for it! The fondest of my childhood memories were of trips to Pirate's Point. Scuba diving on North Shore; lazy hours in a hammock hearing the surf break over the reef; water skiing to the beach at Owens Island; flounders, sting rays, baracuddas and sharks in the shallows. Also being turned back by a hurricane while trying to fly to Grand Cayman. The Islanders know how to live without strife.

Ha I just got accepted to DIT...as well as a school in Huston

I'm in the process of getting my marine biology and wildlife biology degree

Do you have doing dive, at nill visibility?

We make 100 bucks an hr so if you work 4 hrs it’s about 400 bucks. Just some quick math. Might be accurate

❤️❤️❤️

“And make sure you go home every night” ah I see your not talking to sat divers here. Don’t even surface every night

Always enjoyed the underwater world.

As an old Navy Diver from MK12 to the MK21 I will say a nice intro to the industry. One piece of constructive criticism, you brag about your pay in the "North West". You should tell viewers that the "Union" money is earned, not given! It is a very dangerous job in a market that is flooded by fresh recruits out of dive schools every 6 months looking for the money from the 80's. Not the case! But a great tutorial on the industry.

I enjoyed this video. I found some huge red urchins in Sonoma and got a pound of roe from 4 or 5 urchins. Urchins are destructive to the kelp forests, so harvesting them is a good idea.

What a great man. A real inspiration for young filmmakers. Thanks for this

luv air tuggers till someone starts needle gunning on your accent for o2 deco.

The big problem for me is the pay, its just not enough for the work and risk.

If I can’t be a navy diver this is what I want to do except with the FBI

take a shot every time he says diving

Guess it doesn't hurt if Daddy owns the company either?

How do I get started in this field?

How is the job nowadays..??

Does a dive med tech weld? Or stay top side?

I'm 16 gonna get my welding degrees, what should I be eying right now?

Do you have diving company?

Hii

Really fun to watch! Thanks for posting. Reminds me of my days as a Mendocino Urchin Fisheries (M.U.F.) diver. It's different to see guys diving for urchins using tanks, rather than on hookah. I was a diver from 1986-88, Sonoma County to Mendocino. Best job I ever had working for someone else. 1000s of hours underwater, lots of great stories to tell. We'd dive 5-10 hours a day, conditions permitting. North coast diving was a lot different. I worked on a 32’ Radon with two other divers & a tender. On a good day, we’d pick 3,000-4,000 pounds each. When I was doing it, the price fluctuated from 24 to 75 cents per pound offloaded & weighed at the dock.

Hey I live in Canada and I want to open my own dive store what are some main things I would I need to start like type of training etc.. can I start out with just a retail store and then move into diving lessons and trips, or is this a big chunk of business. also money wise, what’s your opinion I have 16000$ is that enough to get things started Until I start selling?

What's the annual Take?$$$ What's the reproductive rate of the game???? What's the cost of Salaries of ur tender? Boat maintenance? Fuel? And dive gear?

anyone see that creepy face at 1:58 near the tire??? what

Cool video.

2:45 underwater pumpkin carving?
