I will share the other pictures from my dive in the next post. But this ancient absolutely massive Hawksbill Sea Turtle deserves its own post. This guy was probably about 1.8 meters long and he didn't even react when I got super close to film him munching down. It is 1000% cooler in the video I'll be uploading soon.

@trinsec No problem. Next dive will likely be something like 15 minutes at 100 feet

@trinsec If you look at the dive profile im only at 30 meters for about a minute or two and spent most of the time slowly descending then ascending. So i was at 30 meters for <5 minutes but the entire dive was an hour.

@trinsec the deeper you go the shorter the threshold. At 100 feet youll get like 5 minutes or less till you go into deco. At 70 feet its something like 30 minutes till deco, at 20 feet you wont enter deco at all.

Spotted a tiny Chelidonura livida on todays dive. Pics and video coming soon!

@trinsec
It is a dive where if the depth or time down isnlong enough you can not safely come up directly to the surface (if you do you get the bends). Therefore you carry two additional tanks on you with 50% and 100% oxygen and you come up part way and switch gases and stay at depth for some time to off gas, then come up a bit farther, repeat until you are finally allowed to surface. Depending on the dive it might take 40 minutes or more to surface as you sit at depth breathing the gas to off gas.

Decided to skip diving tomorrow to heal up a bit. Day after tomorrow im doing a deco dive! So stoked.

@worldsendless This right here is honestly why I refuse to use lisp. I learned it once then vowed never to use it :)

Holy hell do i have a treat for you guys from todays dive (will upload soon). There was an absolutely humungus Hawksbill Sea turtle on todays dive. He must have been close to 100 years old. He was just chilling on the sea floor eating some sea grass and he let me get as close as i wanted (i tried to keep a bit of distance out of respect). But yea i got some amazing video of him up close!

For now ill just share my dive profile (link below) and a picture of my tissue saturation an hour after dive is attached.

@robryk
Yes thats true, the goal is to make it more like what it looks like in person

Here is yesterdays dive with an attempt at color correction. There is a large Trumpet fish, a school of smaller trumpet fish, Blue Staghorn, baby Giant Clam, and a Puffer fish.

@robryk
(A) the brain seems to filter out thr blue somewhat and the color corrected version is a bit more realistic.

@Pat
O cant do good HIIT with my back so getting it to the 70s is a huge milestone on its own. In used to have it lower when i ran. when i was heavier i had a particularly bad resting rate of like 110

The color corrected version (which im uploading the video for) looks much better but has some artifacts.

Some highlights from today's 100 ft (30 meter) dive. Full video will be uploaded tomorrow, these are screen grabs.

We have an adult puffer fish who swam up to me at the end of the dive. An absolutely massive trumpet fish (there is a whole school of them in the uncut video), some blue staghorn coral, and a baby giant clam.

Here is the link to the dive data for anyone who wants to see the dive profile.
