Wall Diving - Underwater Cliff Hanging
The dive begins with a descent to around 60 feet, they you'll begin swimming out towards the wall. You reach the wall and
begin descending to 100 feet,
you check your depth gauge and time on your computer, and you venture on down to 120'. For a quick look.
That's it. You have to stop descending, and worst of all you have only a few minutes
to stare over the Underwater cliff that drops down thousands of feet. You float, with complete neutral buoyancy, and
strain your eyes to see into the massive depths below.
Suspended, filled with suspense, you literally hang over an
Underwater cliff and wish desperately that you were able to slowly drop down.... and down.... and down, but you don't dare. It is a depth you would never come back from.
So you turn around and begin your slow ascent, and know that there are still frontiers where no man has gone before.
You know that there are places in the depths of the seas where a few privileged divers have gone. The few who have had the financial means and training to see those depths,
with special submarines, and surface support. You'll have to read about their discoveries later.
Now, you have moments to
take in all the wall has on display for you to see on your ascent.
Maybe next time maybe you'll only go to 100 feet, and see more. Or take a Multi-Level Diver course to gain even more down time.
Nevertheless, you just had a terrific adrenaline rush, and probably one of the most fantastic dives you've ever logged.
You know you're "hooked", you will go wall diving again many times, and cliff hang under water.
