Video of the Week

• Friendly Sea Turtle
  • http://divevideos.scubaobsessed.com/sea-turtle/

Here is the video as promised for the Hyperbaric Chamber dive.

You can listen to Darrin, Jim and Mac talk about the MUD Club chamber dive in Episode 21 of the Scuba Obsessed Netcast.

The MUD (Michigan Underwater Divers) Club post is available on the club website.

Special thanks to Sub-Aquatic Sports & Service of  Battle Creek, MI for providing us the opportunity to experience a chamber dive! We can’t wait for a next mostly dry dive! We would recommend that every Scuba Diver give this a try to see how they react to being Narced.
