Fun fact: Michael's fins are swim training fins, typically used to improve swimming technique/endurance, which is why they are smaller and have a hole at the heel. Not typically used for snorkeling.
Basically none of his gear was optimal for spearfishing😅 besides the gloves and mask/snorkel. Who ever he bought his stuff from has no idea what they’re talking about
This feels a bit nostalgic and retro to the older OTV vids when they went out and tried stuff like skydiving or archery. The main channel is mostly about the feature-length productions now, so it's nice to see this more casual vlog-like content here.
SAME i love both but i love the real-esque quality of these kinds of videos sm- which is not to say those aren't real, but it's just that this seems more like a couple of people just having fun
i always forget that those lobsters are just kinda spiky whereas the ones i'm used to have the two big claws so half the time i was wondering if they were just gonna scoop up these guys with fingerbreaking claws using nothing but gloves
I dive in california and saw a dude on the spearfishing forums who lost a finger because one of these lobsters bit it off. They dont have claws, but they do have an insane bite.
@@ThomasVermincelli that's wild! I wouldn't have imagined that they were completely defenseless past their spikes... but I also would have never thought and definitely never heard anything that extreme. Good to know if I ever end up going south
Houuu, Michael got the local slippers. As a person born and raised from Hawaii and grew up watching OTV and michael reeves, it feels weird but fun to watch michael being outdoors.
cool that you went lobster diving!! i do it out here in massachusettes where you need to go scuba diving for lobsters since they live in deeper rock reefs and hide in low vis water, its really fun as long as they dont pinch you though.
WHEN I SAW DAVID I WAS LIKE WHY DO I RECOGNISE HIM THEN I SAW JIHOON AND I JOLTED LIKE ISN’T THAT RJ’S ROOMMATES (THE GUY THAT DROPS BARS ON INSTAGRAM W HIS SISTERS) THIS IS SO TRIPPY? also literally the loudest i’ve ever heard jihoon he really does speak in lowercase
Michael has been single handedly carrying OTV for so long. Why doesn’t he just start his own company and hire all the same crew so they can force him to make content.
Actually surprised seeing someone in a different realm from freediving/spearfishing actually getting out there though the only one to get anything was the guy with a little experience. Still cool to see Michael getting into the water
This is a bit late but if when lobster diving bring a stick to tap the lobsters on the tail to make them walk towards you, makes it easier to snatch their antennas that way
finally, our first michael reeves video of the year
probably the last
finally! only 1/3 of the way into 2024!
Can't wait for another video of michael next year
Don't tell him that or we won't get another
And definitely will be last lol
The fact that Micheal is the only otv member lobster diving adds up too well
i mean... he is hawaiian
@@1andonlyneo hes not.....Hes Filipino...
@@TheRealPandigrew up in Hawaii though
@@TheRealPandihe's half Hawaiian half Filipino, I think
@@good_applegg2020 he's half white and half filipino

Hardmode
We’re they not also upside down?
My nephew has those so...I'm just thinking to myself...huh interesting (nephew doesn't do diving lol).
he has to use small ones because he is todler sized.

SAME i love both but i love the real-esque quality of these kinds of videos sm- which is not to say those aren't real, but it's just that this seems more like a couple of people just having fun
i kind of missed the scuffed otv videos that felt like a bunch of friends just doing hanging out together
It feels nice getting little videos like this. I agree with the nostalgic feels.
He’s advancing his plans on eradicating turtles, he’s already become a pirate & lobster dived, all that’s left to do is execute his final move🤝🐢
Next video: Creating the world's largest straw and dumping it into the ocean.
Wouldn't it be cool if Michael had his own youtube channel where he posted his own content?
He was lost in the Pacific for a bit
Real if he was not just a otv member
Let him cook.
yeah but I bet he'd post one video a year
he has a channel
Honestly without Michael being in otv we would never get this kind of content because everyone in otv are a bunch of hermits
fr. he's the only one that was raised touching grass.
soo true
2:33
"its like that drake video...."
*silence*
"you seen that?"
OTV is like our last and only way to know if Micheal is still alive
0:30 the fact Micheal was only told they’re doing this nice lobster diving experience to learn last minute it was for content, I feel for this man.
I swear to God, Michael can find every loop hole to every law/regulation LOL. Yes, we have to get a license to do lobster catching, fishing, etc.
we had the proper licenses for this 🫡
@@offlinetvplus1do t tell michael
@@offlinetvplus1 I'm sure y'all did, but it's hilarious how he can justify not getting a license in his spiel on the video LOL
@@offlinetvplus1Key word "had"
Money talks
1:29 ITS JIHOON?? like RJs friend jihoon?? DIDNT EXPECT THE CROSSOVER OMG

Gonna wear chainmail gloves the next time I go Lobster Diving.@@ThomasVermincelli
"Just That Easy"- Michael Reeves
OTV out here doing what Michael can't do for his own channel; upload content of him lol
Bro, he better not count this as his one video for the year, bro
The fact Michael didn’t know they were filming and still brings the same energy everywhere is so awesome!
2:35 "its like that drake vid have you seen it" ~michael
Edit:thanks so much for 650 likes
💀
Don't give Michel credit or we won't get a reeves vid
Who hasn’t tho?
The dichotomy of Michael is amazing. Can play minecraft for days and never see the light of day, or go lobster fishing and camping.
Houuu, Michael got the local slippers. As a person born and raised from Hawaii and grew up watching OTV and michael reeves, it feels weird but fun to watch michael being outdoors.
grew up is crazy you must be like 12 or something
@@duskpede5146nah bro😂. Im turning 19 this month. But ive been watching them since the start of middle school😅
@@helix9219yeah no so we've both watched them for the same period of our lives and i definitely wouldn't say i "grew up" watching micheal
@@duskpede5146ahhh I see now. U right bro, das my bad
Don't give Michel credit or we won't get a reeves vid
This squad has a great vibe. Everyones a natural on camera. Could we get a gamers go series?
"for sure...i hope" are words i live by
"I didn't know we were filming", but that would be a such waste of content
I’m surprised Michael is the only one doing this, lobster diving sounds fun af
Hell yeah, first Michael Reeves video of the year!
Don't give Michel credit or we won't get a reeves vid
oh dang nice surf and turf plate at the end
This video speaks to me on a personal level
Yea me too
shouldnt you guys be horrified of the capture and murder of your kin depicted in the video
well i mean lobsters are cannibals so its more like watching chefs @@kingblob17
dang a Michael own vid
this is the calmest i’ve ever seen david compared to him and rj on tiktok 😭😭
the mario underwater song as they go under water made me so nostalgic!!
5:40 wet hair michael looks like 2017 michael!
We now have our Michael video for the year yesss
A Micheal Reeves video?? We’re getting fed well 😌🙏
Don't give Michel credit or we won't get a reeves vid
You telling me a lobster dived with Micheal Reeves???
cool that you went lobster diving!! i do it out here in massachusettes where you need to go scuba diving for lobsters since they live in deeper rock reefs and hide in low vis water, its really fun as long as they dont pinch you though.
AYO DAVID AND JIHOON??
Oh mannn a mukbang at the end of the gang enjoying the catch would’ve been perfectt
the only michael content i'll get in 2024 cause god knows I'm not getting a youtube video on the main channel
2:36 Michael is crazy
9:03 Micheal looks like a small child at the beach with his dad and uncles
take your gloves off when you handle octopi! their skin is delicate and the neoprene removes the mucus protecting it!
8:30 I immediately thought Michael was smoking a big ol elfbar... not a water bottle
“Gamers go”
Michael, you sent Michael
I love how michael was thinking of kissing the lobster for the bit and he's just like no that's too far
WHEN I SAW DAVID I WAS LIKE WHY DO I RECOGNISE HIM THEN I SAW JIHOON AND I JOLTED LIKE ISN’T THAT RJ’S ROOMMATES (THE GUY THAT DROPS BARS ON INSTAGRAM W HIS SISTERS) THIS IS SO TRIPPY? also literally the loudest i’ve ever heard jihoon he really does speak in lowercase
I want more of Michael and Jason together man, underrated duo
please more michael reeves videos LMFAO
Don't give Michel credit or we won't get a reeves vid
The is gotta be a reference to the “Another crabs treasure”
Michael: "Damn, i wish we had a device that lets us breathe under the water"
Oop write that down, write that down
The first (and probably only) michael reeves video
Michael came back to our roots. A freaking diver.
Missed opportunity to pull out a lobster fishing robot
Michael has been single handedly carrying OTV for so long. Why doesn’t he just start his own company and hire all the same crew so they can force him to make content.
okay, when it opened with "michael goes lobster diving" I thought this gremlin man just grabbed some rando to film him and went alone
I don’t even see Michael as much of a gamer like the rest of otv, it’s epic
2:32 “it’s like that Drake video”. Never change Michael. Never change.
This years annual Michel Reeves Video: Lobster Diving
“It’s like that drake video” I can’t 😂😂😂
No lobsters where harmed in the making of this video
"I wish I had a device to breathe underwater"
Next video in 1 year.
"Honey, pleeease be careful!!!"
Michael lobster diving with no weight belt and pool fins is hilarious.
Actually surprised seeing someone in a different realm from freediving/spearfishing actually getting out there though the only one to get anything was the guy with a little experience. Still cool to see Michael getting into the water
2:34 "Its like that Drake video. Seen that?" 😂😂
thought the title was “lobsters go gamer diving” was very scared for a sec
This is a bit late but if when lobster diving bring a stick to tap the lobsters on the tail to make them walk towards you, makes it easier to snatch their antennas that way
Love the video, I wish it was longer. Oh and btw.... the hole is meant to go on top of your foot. That's right, the flippers were upside down
That's iconic
Coming from the sand castle video, it was in fact Michael who bit the octopus
Someone please tell micheal this video doesnt count as his yearly video 😭
7:41 in this part, google thinks michaels is saying "can you give a like" and the like botton shine
Michael vs my turtles next
First Sea Turtles and now Lobsters, no sea creature is safe from Michael Reeves
This is my surfing spot! Absolutely beautiful area and theres a bunch of spear fishing that goes down over there.
Micheal is the side quest god
I know David from RJ videos.
Otv giving the people what they wanted.. Micheal Reeves content!!
Jihoon has very nice hair. My compliments to the chef
Michael with the Local Slippers true person from hawaii
This video has the most perfect video description. Literally man vs. nature aka Michael's exposed heels vs. nature.
Bro is doing side quests
Micheal, give us another upload man.
The octopus looks like the little minion octopi in "Penguins of Madagascar"
Micheal saying no to a snorkel is the most Hawaiian thing
Michael will do anything but post on his channel
I will watch Michael do anything
Ill count this as a Micheal reeves video for the year
yo michael kinda rocks the slicked back hair look
lessgo we got a michael video before gta6
We got a video of Michael before gta 6
I would watch hours of Michael adventure content, especially if Lily was there too
FINALLY A MICHAEL VID OF THE YEAR YESS
Michael wearing bodyboard fins lol
So do Jihoon and David have some socials, asking for research purposes 😂
I honestly love how committed Micheal is even if it’s searching for lobsters or coding or pretty much anything at this point
Of course it's only Micheal from OTV going! Really nice to see some more content with him though
9:07 i see we have hard launched that podcast idea of what is acceptable to kill on youtube and we are starting with lobster. i rock with it LMAO
This man does everything 😂😂😂
amazing experience lobster fishing with michael and crew!
Micheal looks exactly like how I imagine Amadeus Cho from Marvel
I loved the mario 64 water level music. nice touch.
