thank you for bringing the ocean living organisms from smallest - planktons, krill to largest whale - all in one moment in time...i feel like i am swimming alongside all of you but for someone who cant overcome the fear of drowning - from the bottom of my heart - truly appreciate the swim along. It maybe a video on your part but its a treasure on mine...the ocean life forms are precious just like their land animals...hopefully from all your vlog, many will be educated to be better guardians of the air, land and ocean... we all need to do a better job and it starts by the simple step of educating how to preserve the natural habitat. Tell Declan that his hang time will be 9 seconds or better...just let the winds guide to soar and hang !!!

Thank you Sheree. Nice to reach a milestone. Someone suggested we will be at 50k in no time. It took three years to get here so, based on that, only 15 years to go. 😄

Congratulations on 10K 🥳 what an awesome journey it's been - and here's to even more epic videos in the future!

Thank you very much for your generous comparison. We don't watch TV so difficult for us to assess the legitimacy of your opinion, much as we would love to think you're correct. 😃

Congrats on 10k, you deserve 10x that.

Thank you Mark.

Grats on 10k!! You deserve every one and many more! What an awesome experience, getting to just see these amazing creatures in the wild seems like a #lifegoals kind of thing, but getting to be up close in the water with them... Just... wow.

Yeah they're great company. They were around the corner in Exmouth working on their boat. They kicked themselves for missing out.

What a fascinating and unique experience swimming with these legends. Congratulations on 10k. Your production and editing are so good you'll be at 100k quickly.

Thanks for your optimism and feedback. It's taken three years to get this far so not holding out breath on the 100k any time soon.

Your production quality is really that good. I actually had never noticed your subscriber numbers. I assumed you had 200k+. My new channel has exactly 0 subs.🤣 I just gave you a shoutout on Ruby Rose livestream. 👍👍
