Diving is both an interesting and dangerous activity, and to practice scuba diving, you need to have special skills and a certain amount of courage. Considering the beauty of the underwater world, it is necessary to understand that scuba diving is associated with a danger to life. Regularly diving underwater, an experienced scuba diver wants to see hard-to-reach places and go as deep as possible. These desires lead to the search for the most dangerous places for diving.
The first place can fairly be given to the Blue Hole in the Red Sea.
It is an underwater funnel 130 meters long with an arch opening the way to the open sea. The danger is that the depth is 16 meters more than the maximum diving capability. In 10 years, this hole has forever claimed the lives of one hundred and fifty people, leading them astray.
In second place is the Samayosan hole in the Gulf of Thailand. This dangerous place in Thai waters challenges divers to conquer 85-meter depths, battling strong currents and unexploded bombs left over from the burial of military waste. There is a sinkhole in Florida called the Eagle's Nest. It can deservedly be given the third place in terms of danger, and only a very desperate scuba diver would dare to reach its depth of 315 meters: many people died in it due to nitrogen poisoning.
Australia has many underwater caves with lakes and sinkholes, corridors and ramifications. This corridor of underwater caves has claimed many lives of underwater lovers. In the Atlantic Ocean, 120 kilometers from New Jersey, a German submarine sank, which has been lying at a depth of 73 meters since the Second World War and is an interesting object to study.
Strong currents and low temperatures pose a great danger to divers. In the state of Florida, in the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean, the underground caves "Little Devil", "Eye and Ear of the Devil" are twisted with great force into a water funnel, making it impossible to get out.
In Mexico, under the ruins of Tulum, karst craters are of great interest and are a dangerous place with a network of underwater caves connected by narrow corridors, where it is easy to get lost and use up all the oxygen supply.
The second largest coral reef is located off the coast of Belize. The clear waters of the Caribbean Sea wash over a Large blue hole 124 meters deep with dangerous sharp stalactite formations on slippery walls.
Cocos Island, remote from the coast of Costa Rica, is dangerous because of its remoteness: it takes 35 hours to swim to it, and swimming with sharks, of which there are a huge number, is very risky. In Texas, scuba divers spotted Jacob's Well with four underwater caves. The path to the latter passes through a narrow passage, after swimming through it, it is very easy to lose your bearings due to muddy water and use up all the oxygen in a panic.
In order to avoid life-threatening situations, it is necessary to have many years of diving experience in order to admire the unusual beauties of the underwater world and explore new interesting places.
