    I would say that right from the start she was not ready for that dive , not enough experience . Then add on the other factors ,no hose , cold deep water in the dark no appropriate one to one not to mention the weight !!!

    I'm way late to the party here! I'll attempt clear up what I can here in order of what I'm watching. Other diver was an advanced diver (cop) who died in 30ft, defintely didn't have the same experience as me it was, likely a panic/heart attack. "My throw up of nitrogen" when I surfaced, I had an abundance of gas (air) expelling from my lungs out my mouth, as if i drank a bunch of soda and was uncontrollingly burping on long burp, no idea, it was one of the weirdest experiences ever, I just figured I would pass out when I surfaced so I inflated my bcd as I surfaced. When we were at 100ft, we were both naive and felt good outside of some minor effects from the pressure I feel in my chest. My panic happened as I was ascending and looking up, I was swimming for a about 5 seconds and thought I was ascending, and then my feet hit the bottom, I believed this happened twice, so I started to kick harder to ascend, this is how I figured I was overweighted, but my bouyancy was suspect throughout the entire dive I imagine too, at that time I didn't realize how much extra air I had to put into my bcd at that depth. I did surface and go back down to 20ft (idiot) thinking that maybe my body could have been holding nitrogen still or something, again, I didn't know so I figured it was a good idea, which is obviously was defintely not. Neither of us had computers at this point. Defintely not supposed get tank fills in Canada without cert, but I've heard of people going to Fire Stations for fills. @11:45 I think you interpret this correctly, we were only at 100ft for less than 3 minutes, So I don't believe I was narced here. I am a pretty calm person under stress, this was my one off situation that really humbled me because I really didn't think there was an ounce of panic in my personality. The footage I had of the time of the incident was just green water nothing to look at camera wise, there was really no point of reference for anything outside of a 40ft rock wall that wasn't visible and the 100ft sign, so I just left that out in my video edit. My buddy was well above me and ahead of me in the ascend by 15-20 ft, @ 100ft I swam passed him when I ascended, and he joined me at the surface, he defintely cut his safety stop short, but he wasn't too far behind when I surfaced which was super sketch on his part. His original certification was questionable and he actually went back to get his open water and we eventually did our advanced course together, but he never finished it because he doesn't feel comfortable underwater because he had his own panic attack at this same location aroudn 70ft when we were going to decend right back to this exact same spot. He's willing to dive, but will never do anything beyond 20-30ft again. One of my dive buddies/instructor found this video today and forwarded it to me, I appreciate you taking the time to do this, would love to chat more if you have any questions or just want to talk more about this of whatever else. I have a lot more diving videos on my channel as well. Also thank you for not just ripping me like 90% of the internet trolls, I could have took down my video, but I believe it's good to see mistakes like this.

    The following excerpt was taken from the Divernet website, “Mills death lawsuit settled - but will criminal case follow?”, dated February 17, 2023: A prominent US diving lawyer is pushing for the reopening of what he says was a botched criminal investigation into the death of 18-year-old diver Linnea Mills in a Montana mountain lake in November 2020. David G Concannon’s announcement follows the news that the civil lawsuit brought against a local dive-centre, its owners, an instructor and training agency PADI in connection with the fatality has now been settled by all parties out of court on undisclosed terms. “ … Because Gull Dive had not been licensed to operate commercially in Glacier National Park, the initial investigation was undertaken by park agents. Concannon said that they had done well to consult a wide range of diving specialists. However, the National Park Service’s Investigative Services Bureau (ISB) quickly took over the case, and according to Concannon it severed those links to experts, to the extent of failing to involve even the NPS’s own dive safety officer, normally charged with investigating diving fatalities, its dive-team or dive control board. “Among the evidence the ISB refused to look at or ignored were the dive-profiles of Debbie Snow and Linnea Mills, which showed that Snow was on the surface while Linnea was drowning,” Concannon told Divernet. He said that Snow had also removed critical evidence - Mills’ dive-computer and personal effects, including incomplete PADI forms - from the scene. The video of Mills’ death and evidence of whether Snow had been mentally impaired at the time were also ignored, he said, and PADI’s training standards had been reviewed only after the instructor had been interviewed, and by non-divers. Also withheld, according to the lawyer, was that non-diver Shannon Gentry had questioned the Gull team about Mills having to dive without the drysuit hose “and Linnea just shrugged her shoulders, saying: ‘If they say it’s all right, I guess I will be OK’.” Concannon pointed out contradictions in Snow’s statement to the ISB, including the claim that divers carried out pre-dive equipment checks even though she had not known how much weight Mills had or where it was located. And while the ISB had told the Mills family that it was unable to determine the effects of suit-squeeze because “nobody had ever studied it before”, Concannon says that he had referred the ISB to two investigations, one from 2012 and another ongoing by the Canadian Coast Guard, “but they just ignored this information. “If the feds cared - and they don’t seem to be too interested - they could follow the chain of custody of the dive-computer and charge all who were involved in removing it from the scene and taking it out of state for two years, instead of turning it over to the investigators,” he said. “In fact, in a case involving a divemaster in the Florida Keys, charges were brought against the DM for taking a dive-computer and not handing it over to the sheriff.” He now hopes that either the Assistant US Attorney or the Department of the Interior, which oversees the NPS, can be persuaded to reopen the case. “I don’t know how many insults the Mills family has to endure,” he told the Missoula Current. “They lost their daughter but then the system really failed them in fundamental ways. The people involved in this failed to do their jobs.”

You mention its terrible to watch and are mindful of how much stress they are going through. There are many people in the united states who have been deliberately trying to stress student divers out but cutting off their air and then trying to hold them down as if to display power over them, ultimately inciting panic. When I watched the video, I noticed as you were observing the woman with bulged eyes, I saw natural feelings in your face cycle. Its what told me you are one of those people who cares to make sure people arent harmed.

    Why did nobody discuss the lack of buddy breathing? When he approached his buddy with breathing problems and signals? The buddy should have offered his spare regulator, or he should have reached for it. He should have insisted his friend go up with him. We carry tablets to write messages on. If he had narcosis breathing his buddies air would have shown no improvement, but an ascent with a buddy would have been safer. I assume the buddy would have made a safety stop at 15 feet and put him back on his own if he felt the need to continue. I once failed to fully open my valve. At 100 feet I was short on air and rather than signaling my buddy some distance away. I reached back and turned the valve resolving the problem. In hindsight I would have gone to another diver and taken a few breaths before then trying to resolve the problem. Great videos. Its always better to learn from others mistakes.

In the dive briefing we were told that there can be strong currents present. So this vortex somewhat makes sense considering it is a pinnacle out in the ocean, it was still blowing my mind seeing this and there was no word about anything like this mentioned by the crew.

    My thoughts echo each comment I read; this story is heartbreaking. As a SCUBA instructor, this is open and shut to me, and one interview with a SCUBA expert would have provided the AG with that information. What this brought home for me today (two years later, I know) is the trust that our students put in us when we take them in the water. We have to be worthy of that trust-every student, every dive.

    What is the best way to stop a panic attack?

  • @BudgetGainsByJJ
    @BudgetGainsByJJ2 ай бұрын

    It’s easier said than done but you have to just stop relax and breathe slowly (if you are panicked type train more in the pool, the more the better you would rather spend time there doing the work than experience a panic attack 30 metres deep and do meditation) I never ever trained in a pool, my wife was a certified dive master and got my ass in the ocean. I can swim but I don’t like water too much. My first ever dive I was loving it!! I got to 30 metres deep, not an ounce of panic or fear, I started to go frequently and go deeper I was just always calm and enjoying the scenery (remarkable it kept my mind off any craziness) Then I stopped diving for a while, and ever since I got a bad case of covid I began to be more “stressful” of a person. So we did a dive trip in Vanuatu and I was like an excited. Anyway we get to the edge of the boat and my tank starts making a whistling sound, I was like “oh no” anyway I jumped in the ocean very far from land and the guide guy wanted us to descend I said “no the tank is worrying me” he had a look and said “should be fine” even with his consent I had this bad vision in my mind “what if the oxygen cuts out 30 metres deep? Long way from the surface!” Then I was scared but tried to suck it up and we went down. Anyway all was well we were 25 metres deep and this rage of panic just struck me! You name it everything was getting me scared! I was worried about oxygen, I was worried about sharks, I was worried about death. I just regathered my thoughts and pulled through for another 10 mins but my jaw was feeling “weak” and unable to clench and water was coming into my mouth! I just said to myself “relax, relax, relax” I grabbed the guide roughly but calmly and signalled to go up. He put his thumbs up and instantly as we got to like 15 metres this huge “relief” came upon me and my jaw felt strong again (the mind is a powerful force let me tell you!) then we went snorkelling the next day and I literally told my wife “I don’t think I can dive that deep again” the only way to succeed in the waters is to get heaps of practice in a pool, a lot! And always calm down remain calm the mind freaks us out.

When the instructor told me to breathe slowly and held my hands, that's how I got relaxed and got my PADI advice licence. I need to face it one way or another. I can't run away forever. 🫡

I absolutely agree with you just face the fear and keep facing it until diving because purely a leisurely activity, like it was once for me. I have an opportunity to become a Navy Clearance Diver, I’ve always wanted to do it to face my fear but the thought of being 90 metres under water is just terrifying.

    For spools you'll want about 1.5x line for the deployment depth. So, a 15m spool is for deploying from a depth of 10m. 30m for 20m depth. 45m for 30m depth. 60m for 40m depth. Prepare your spool (unless you're getting one of those fancy Apeks spools). Tie a large 30cm/1ft long leader, a small loop halfway up the leader, and a small loop at the end of the leader. This will make your life a lot easier when you're using it. Nitrox analyzers are often available in dive centers where you're having your cylinders filled, and also on most charters. If you're a frequent diver you can buy one of your own. O₂ sensors have a shelf life of about 1-1.5 years, and cost around $100. So keep that in mind as a recurring cost. Always carry a light. The longer wavelength lights like red, orange, yellow, get absorbed in deeper water, so everything looks green/blue/black. A light brings back the color in the dive. They're also great for pointing stuff out and looking into crannies. For frog kicks, the Jet fin design is probably the best. The buoyancy of the fins is only a factor for your trim. If your legs are floaty, get a (slightly) negatively buoyant fin like the Scubapro Jet or the Apeks RK3 HD. If your trim is pretty much spot on, the regular RK3 is probably your best option.

    This whole thing is just so sad. If it was her first drysuit dive, what was the instructor wearing? Because the instructor wasn't even qualified for drysuit diving, so if the instructor was wearing a wetsuit wasn't she cold? And if so why did she continue with the dive? And if she had a drysuit why the hell didn't she instruct Linnea on how to dive with one? Like wtf was the instructor doing? She [the instructor] must've really wanted to see some god damn fish that day or something, freaking weirdo. 7:41 It looks like the instructor can't even send a f*cking email to everyone she's training. WTF? They sound like a complete disorganised moron. And at 7:42 you can see that she goes on about staying at the lodge but the lodge was closed. The fact the instructor didn't email Linnea and she completely ignored her during the dive is just weird. It's like she had it out for her or something. What the f*ck were the Gull sfaff doing the whole freaking time? Liston knew he zippered the weights into her pockets, what was he doing when she was drowning?? He should've swam over and removed them, not looked around for fish or whatever he was doing. And Debbie swam past her as she was struggling? Like wtf, why was she so fixated on her compass when she should've been looking around at the other divers when she obviously had a duty of care for everyone? It's obvious that Debbie Snow is a complete idiot. I think it's profoundly fortunate that Bob was there. It sounds like he had more experience diving than the instructor did, or at least he was actually looking out for others on the dive. It's unbelievable that he was the only one out of the group who tried to help her. Linnea deserves justice and the system completely failed her. I've never scuba'd before even though I've been interested and took a medical for one ages ago. I'm sure part of learning is to stay calm if something goes wrong. I wonder if Linnea kept calm on the ledge and didn't end up falling, would it have been possible for Bob and Nathan (because you know the other two duds on the dive would be off doing whatever) to swim to her and each of them loop their arms under hers and swim her to the surface? It would've been very hard for her not to panic (if I was in her situation at 18 I probably would've freaked out just like her as well) but I'm just wondering. EDIT: after doing some research it appears that the Olson's (owners of Gull Dive) have been in trouble before with the law, their son killed people in a car crash. Seems like these people are always in trouble with the law.

    Suing Potter was very American. Everyone is free to sell whatever they want to whomever they want, and it was not Potter's responsibility whatsoever to assess the degree of training of Linnea and Nathan. Above all, the complaint states that Potter should have mentioned diving the drysuit is unsafe as it is not equipped with an inflator hose. Conversely, Potter could have believed they already own an inflator hose or would get one elsewhere. I agreed with most of the complaint, but suing Potter was a mistake.

    I really do not understand how a certified instructor can tippy dance around the "knowingly" part. I can see how a lay person may be liable, yet not criminally negligent since he was not a "certified" instructor. But in this specific case, where she was a "certified" instructor, would not the certification have some legal implication that the trainer is knowledgeable of proper procedures and safety practices? Then again, it may be that "certified" and "licensed" have different legal implications. A license is issued by governmental regulatory body. While a certificate is issued by any Joe that takes your money. Not to say that some Joes are not strict, but some do not care. I had a co-worker that attended a one week seminar and came back as a "certified nutritionist", whatever the hell that meant in his case as he knew nothing about biology or chemistry but the people that charged for the seminar gave him that at the end. Maybe, for all our perceptions, certifications do not carry much of a legal weight and do not make you different from lay persons and here we are thinking of certifications as licenses.

    One thing I was reading is the guy who owned Gull is also a high level executive in the Banking industry. Meaning he probably writes a lot of campaign checks to politicians.These have a way of making criminal charges go away, even though they are clearly warranted in this case. Tragedy around. I am not a dry suit diver, but even in my open water class I was taught about suit squeeze effects on a dry suit. There is no way in heck I would ever dive in a dry suit without an inflator hose. And then to be this overweighted? Total negligence by all involved, and sadly when people are young they don’t often realize how to say no to dangerous situations. Gull completely failed this woman, there is no way to sugarcoat it.

Now in training many years ago I was doing a training scent from 20 metres we were exchanging regulators. I was looking into his eyes and suddenly they were gone. I learnt afterwards one ear had clicked not the other, complete disorientation but he did not panic. I signalled abort, wrapped legs round him and forced pmy regulator injto his mouth. After that on no air I either inflated his BCD or Mine, started heading for the surface like a freight train while recovering my octopus. On surface both of us OK. Now I am a bad man, maby don't dive with me. I watched your film.. She was THE most dangerous thing that exists in diving. A bull shark, a hyammerhead shark is nothing compared to the streangth and vigour thyat a Homo Sapiens can do in Panic. Now let me give MY true opinion. If it was my girlfriend diving as my buddy I woulod have grabbed yer wrapped legs and got her to the surface. Either we would both be dead or bioth alive. If it was not my girlfriend dive buddy I would stay clear. Another diver in panic is the MOST dangerous creature in the ocean. So there you have it, I'm a bad man.
