As a retired pipe fitter and closed circuit diver I can really appreciate this guy

To start off, great content and wonderful visibility which makes it a joy to view. The only critique I have is not make the music so loud over the comm's between the diver's working together. During the long silences sure crank it up, but the comm's between the diver's can be interesting and educational too. 👍Keep it up, bring it on! 😁👌

excellent visibility and depth to exhibit the process. Suggest less or muted music during diver/ diver and topside conversations. Having done a few of these makeups I was looking at your tool basket to understand how you prepared for the job. Good work.

I did something like this last year when I was offshore it was a tough dive

Yha it looks really interesting compared to where you've got high concentration of current and waves, I can see the hoist chain is up and down... which makes the job an 80% safe already, the diver with the team for the remaining 20% .......

Excellence cannot be rushed . Methodical & accurate . It's amazing how much incredible work goes on every single day , that people generally have no idea about . I'm not a diver . I'm guessing that it's natrual light so you are not too deep ? Are you ' in sat ' here . Forgive my ignorance , I'm just very curious.

I recently qualified and have been working on a fish farm for the last 2 months. I hope to get to where you are one day! It look complicated though, are you briefed in detail before you dive or is a supervisor just explaining what to do while your down there?

Hey Yiannis , Thanks for your support, I'm sure it would be centred with the 3 points, Only it will definitely take up more of our Bottom time trying to put the 3rd point from under the pipe as we cant put it on the top. The top needs to be free for the gasket to get in.

The spool was still bouncing very slightly and would have damaged the Gasket if we put it in the groove. I asked to come down on the crane. you might see it at the 29:35, Look inside the spool .. it jerked real quick.
