This underwater cave has killed many divers. Photo

It is called “underwater graveyard.”

This is one of the most famous places for scuba diving – located in the Egyptian Dahab, the famous “blue hall”. No accurate statistics, but over the last fifteen years there died not less than one hundred thirty people. The cause of these deaths was either ignorance or carelessness.

Here is the famous arch of the “blue hall” of water column

Here is a shot of the “Blue hole” at the top. See water-covered thin strap separating the “blue hall” from the sea? Arch top photo located a few dozen meters below.

Here is a diagram of these unique formations in the rocks of Sinai:

And that is the spontaneous memorial on the shore. One label – one life.

This is Barbara Dillinger from Holland. It is from 1998 and is 114 metres.

But this video was filmed by a camera installed on the head of diver Yuri Lipski. Yuri died when diving in the “blue hall”, and a recording of his last dive remained.

Almost all who died in the “blue hall” ruined the so-called “deep air.” So we call the dive on air at depth, for this threat, primarily because of nitrogen narcosis. This activity can be compared with the way the driver into oncoming traffic and begins to bounce on his car. One will with impunity “to grab adrenaline”, the other not.

Diving is safe if not to go on these are the “oncoming lane”. And this is taught every. But then people think they have achieved mastery and can do it all. And on the cliffs there is a new sign.
