That intro with the navy ship made me smile. It remembered me of an event in St Johns, Newfoundland years ago. We sailed in with our offshore working vessel for some repairs that needed a big crane and a some divers. The divers came fully suited up in drysuits and dive helmets. They said the water quality, after many decades of the harbour being the endpoint of sewer pipes, wasn't good. When finished they rinsed down for a long time before getting out of their diving gear. The next portcall there were some Dutch and Belgium navy ships inside who were in the area for an exercise. On the aft of the dutch navy ships divers, navy crew, were getting ready for a propellor inspection. Before getting in there thin wetsuit they were getting buckets of water out of the harbour which they poured over themselves.... (100mtr besides them was a big sign on the quay saying not the swim or fish in the harbour because of the water "quality")

This job looks DOPE, and SCARY at the same time. Like the ones when they clean a ship in shallow water, and the water is nice, and bright blue (3:27), would be a blast. Then you have the ones super deep, where there is dark green water around the ship, everywhere else it pitch black into the abyss (3:31). That's ones thing I hate about oceans is how you get deep enough, and its goes dark, cant see anything, quickly turn from fun, to scary. Ill swim in waters like Fiji and Caribbean when you can basically see the bottom, its crystal clear. But then you have shit like at 3:31, where I would probably have a panic attack. The thought of being in his position, I just keep thinking I would slowly keep sinking into that darkness Actually blows my mind how weird I am about it, how I go from LOVE to Panic Attack in seconds. 3:27 or 4:08 and I would absolutely LVOE to swim, scuba dive all day, like when you swim amongst the coral, crystal clear water.

No.

I like how unconcerned they are about how bad for the environment the cleaning is.

all that "bad for the environment stuff' came from... hold on, wait for it.... THE ENVIRONMENT.

Looks like exciting work. How much do these divers earn in a year?

OK, I had to learn more about depths involved. I was under impression saturation was for Deeeeep diving. Wiki says Today, most sat diving is conducted between 65 feet and 1,000 feet. Wow, had no idea! Thx for teaching me something new today.

It's fascinating but those underwater propellers are fiercely triggering my submechanophobia. Not a job for me. 😱

I wonder how many of those brave cleaners are women and I wonder how many of those lovely feminists, screaming their lungs out for equality, want to get into this line of work, as opposed to getting more high-payed manager jobs

Yup. They don’t want the risk. Never have. They just want the money.

REALY GREAT VIDEO! THANK YOU FOR THE INFO!! VERY INTERESTING VIDEO!!👍

There' s something about images of submerged machinery that makes me very uneasy.

I had a few days where I polished 2 props a day,alone.Taking the prop through a cub brush,sanding disc then shining it like a mirror,nice lines, with a polishing disc,huge MSC ships,over 10 hours under water,got paid £ 10/day in South Africa.

Nothing I hate more than when the tide suddenly goes out unexpectedly and crushes you under a ship. I’m just longing for the day they work out a way to predict the tides.

Divers should always use the buddy system for safety

Do you also dive to depths which exceed normal diving depths?

So beautiful shipping 🚢cleaning 😍💕✨💖❤💗nice beautiful shipping 🚢

Im no expert but are the saturation divers their referring to cleaning submarines??? Because thats crazy for just cleaning underneath a ship

3:44 they could easily have robots doing this job just like they have now lawn mower robots or apartment floor cleaning robots.

My Megalohydrothalassophobia is going into overdrive.

1:15 "Superstructures" are the portions of ships that are above the free deck, not the ships' hulls.

"Concentrated water jets......" So pressure washers, got it!

I'm gonna need to see your LOTO procedures.

I think the best way is to make a yearly dry dock. It causes less harm to the sea I think since they clean it "dry". This is a way to be cheap and not doing correct maintenance, although I must admit, cleaning divers sounds cool and looks super fun and dangerous. Ex crew member here, passanger ships.

I'm loving your content...Thank you!

Great video, we learned a lot

Stunning and brave.

The huge, looming presence of these ships makes me uneasy just watching this clip! The ships' sides, rudders, and propellers especially. Oddly, the bottoms of the ships don't bother me in the least. Just a huge ceiling. I'd always be worried to some extent about sea life, especially in murky water!

A tide cannot "suddenly recede", tides work like a clock... The guy working there would know what time to leave.

This is awesome!!!!!

Was soll daran gruselig sein ist doch Geile Arbeit

Fine video

Barnacle Bill and Co have got there work cut out! Great job 👌

7 minutes of stock footage, 1 minute of relevant footage

It takes a special kind of person to do that because I would never 😳

I'm amazed they don't have something like a car wash In the Panama Canal. Just drive through some big rollers.

Wonder they didn’t come up with a ship version of an underwater automatic car wash ?.

Man next time I clean my fish tank I definitely won’t complain after watching this lol
