Yeah. His story of the rescue in the boulders and I've had a crush since. He's such a great storyteller and breaks down the logistics and what he's thinking / his options so well.
I'm a Full Cave CCR Diver and have been listening to you guys since Day 1. Thanks for putting out content like this, not just video commentary. This is truly value added to the community! Keep up the great work!
Non Diver here! Is Edd a real person? Every video I see with him is just insane to me. Part robot or something? Octopus like Woody? Like he might have the biggest pair I've ever seen. Does he have a fear? or is he one of those ppl who just doesn't or just shuts things off. maybe it's me since I'm a non diver and A lot of what he does is at the top of this sport and most ppl well like really no one else can or should do. I don't know other divers in the world but Edd seems to me like the Michael Jordan of Diving. The Goat! I would definitely like to hear him talk about his thought processes on dives and fears and how to block that stuff out lol so I can relate somehow. The dude is a beast! He has my Respect. I love these videos with him in it. you 4 breaking it down and the footage is awesome!
Not too many people know this about Edd.....he's a Reptilian Humanoid. No Joke!!! 💯% !!! Mark Zuckerberg is also reported to be one. Although he is not as talented as Edd. Look at the guns💪on that Lizard Man.
I'm advanced open water diver. Ed isn't so much a person as he is the son of Poseidon. lol But seriously. He'll either retire, or drown. I hope it's the former. He's the best, but some of what he's been able to do when it's life or death may be because nothing ELSE went wrong. He's a bonafide hero that's for sure. If the water gets him it'll probably get two for one because he will be trying to save someone who may or may not deserve saving. Compared to him I'm not even a baby, I've barely been conceived as a diver, but your first open water class will teach you that it's not usually one problem that kills people. It's when the dominoes start falling and the problems pile up. So we are taught to abort any dive for any reason at all. The only dive I've ever aborted in my relatively miniscule experience of 100 dives plus a few I didn't log. Sometime before the 20th dive I had a bloody nose from a previous dive in the atlantic. We had literal rescue divers on the boat diving for fun and they told me that it can happen to some people sometimes and absent anything else I was fine to dive. My wife and I jumped into the Atlantic in very high current from 20 ft until about 40+ feet, then no current. So we had a literal rope to hold on to to get to 80 ish feet while dodging an endless stream of jelly fish. I almost forgot about the jelly fish in the current. We got past the current and we couldn't get my wife's hair to stay out of her mask, preventing a seal. It was 50 degrees F on the bottom so we are wearing hood and gloves and I couldn't manage to fat finger push the hair back into the hood wearing thick gloves. Taking gloves off isn't an option because they are hard to get back on. My nose felt a little raw. 1. My nose feels a bit raw. No big deal. I feel fine and we aren't at depth to get narc'd. So I'm really fine. 2. Can't get an acceptable seal on my wife's mask after a minute of trying. Some divers with facial hair deal with a little water in the mask all the time, but my wife isn't used to that. 3. My wife signals she's very cold. This was our 3rd dive into the cold. 4. I signal to abort the dive. Because I have an annoyance in my nose, my wife is gonna have to clear her mask like she has a beard which she is not used to doing, and she's cold. Three little things. Miniscule things. Certainly nothing like having my O2 turned off on a rebreather, lol. But I was a scuba baby and still am by some standards, and I wasn't going to let 3 little things become any more things because those three little things would make any big thing worse. That is how not to die as a scuba diver. I followed the rules. I wasn't down with what was going on so STOP it before it can get any worse. The kind of diving these guys do is something I have no interest in learning because I always want UP to be an option. The key to being safe as a scuba diver is just following the rules and having appropriate training. If you do that, you will be fine bc almost all deaths are preventable. Go learn to dive bro. It's amazing.
Ed is a professional...fighter pilots are professional...MLB closers are professional...my brother in arms Spec Ops are professional......shoot if you know anything of these types I listed they have jovial traits, arrogant traits..DEEP and intense mental focus to reinforce their particular abilities and last but not least...THEY RESPECT THE RISK...THEIR NOT IDIOTS OR ROBOTS!! I've had a past in something similar I won't speak of.....but I can see in Ed his comical and YET DEAD SERIOUS!! HE IS FOR SURE THE GOAT!
He does have a fear, it's the dark 🌑 Knowing what he has accomplished in the past, I can only imagine what it is he experiences and sees. Nothing good I'm sure. Dudes a complete legend and total badass. Ed your a hero dude!
It's not a death wish if you enjoy diving and know what you are doing.....trust me, you don't know what you are missing! I was certified back in 1986 by Scuba Schools International through Scuba Hut in Glen Burnie MD, and I loved every second of it! I haven't been diving in quite a while, but I can tell you that I miss it very much, I would love to get back in the water and dive again! You should try it, but only if you are comfortable in the water and you get trained properly by professionals. If you do ever try it and you get certified, then remember this, you should never panic, because if you panic, then it could get you killed, so ALWAYS try to remain calm at all times when diving, I can't stress this enough!
@Roy Patterson I've never scuba dived before but I've watched most of Dive Talks video's and the number one thing I've learned is to not panic and stay calm!!!
I try to tell people it's like the opposite of sky diving. Sky diving is the adrenaline pumping extreme activity. SCUBA diving is pretty extreme bc you are deciding to be ok with breathing underwater for a while. But in the paradise style of diving it's calm and quiet leisurely flight.
It's worth pointing out by SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE that the "cowboy days" of diving are past. The days of Jacques Cousteau pioneering the Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus and getting narc'd regularly are over and done... He and the many "Greats" of the business since have come and gone to see to it that this leisure activity or sport or whatever else you want to call it is just that, "Business"... Maybe a little unusual, but so long as you're following the rules that these pioneers laid out and some even lost their lives to learn, then no, it's not insane... and it's not required to have a death-wish. We enjoy a level of technological progress and the pioneering spirit that's pushed the envelope literally EVERY DAY before we came upon this sport/activity. Just ten years ago, cave diving was considerably more dangerous than it is today. Rebreathers were still relatively new tech' and guys like Edd were still pioneering the FIRST prototypes of many of them... AND some of those prototypes failed catastrophically. Some of them didn't make it past the first test or two, and some (likely, since I'm not in the dive business, myself) may have cost lives when they failed in practice or the rules weren't so clearly known at the time... I'm in my 40's, and I've seen the improvements in MY lifetime. There's a lot to be said about guys like Edd, doing their jobs and rescuing or recovering people to minimize hazards and public panic or knee-jerk restrictions and the rest... AND there's a LOT to be said about the guys inventing this stuff, redesigning these things, and being careful in every aspect of a new product or design and the competition to get deeper, go further, and do so on less for every new generation of such products. My respect in full to EVERY ONE OF THEM... all the way back to Cousteau. They're ALL heroes for their drive, professionalism, and even the occasional arrogance with which they have all been driven toward the next great goal in their business. I may have only gone to a Discover Scuba place once, and I may well never do it again... BUT my hat's still off. ;o)
As a non diver.... can I just say this video brilliantly illustrates how frog kicks actually work and the actual physics of it... you can observe the transfer of energy from Edd to the fins to the water. It's awesome.
Well there's a reason why they're called frog kicks! If you see it in nature, chances are it works. Especially if you are looking at fish crustaceans or amphibians etc when wanting to do anything ocean/water related
As a Respiratory Therapist I have a pretty good grasp on the things Edd is discussing in this video such as p02 and c02, etc. It makes watching these videos so much fun! Interesting to learn that in your world as Divers it's called a Loop Volume. In my world it's called a Tidal Volume, or Vt. And when one takes a maximum breath it's called a Vital Capacity. We can calculate these things while performing Pulmonary Function Testing. Anyway, good work you guys. I'm not a Diver myself, but I'm a huge fan of what you're doing!
I totally agree I’m an RN and find this content totally relatable. I worked with some very outstanding RTs during my career and you guys are life savers. People have not given you the recognition you deserve in managing COVID patients on ventilators. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@Dharmarenee Totally, you guys understand this stuff too! Doesn't it make it fun to listen to what they're saying? And thank you do much for the kind words. I really appreciate it. I learned so much about team dynamics and collaboration during the height of Covid. How important every single department was for the welfare of our patients. We definitely couldn't do our jobs if it wasn't for the amazing job you guys do. Everyone down to EVS making sure the rooms were sanitized in a timely manner. I have such a huge appreciation for all of the hard work and dedication everyone put in!
I always feel impressed when I hear guys like Edd Sorenson, Brian Kakuk, Steve Bogaerts, Lamar Hires, and others speak and they are accepting of people's individualities. These highly-experienced bona fide divers, explorers and instructors are the cream of the crop and they are receptive to different ideas; they do not go around saying everybody is stupid and dumb; they are warm and helpful when we contact them - I have contacted all I mentioned here and they always responded even though I'm a grain of sand in the Sahara. It is always the SH**-HEADS who have narcissistic complex and Dora-the-Explorer complex who are rude and full of themselves. Thank you, Edd, Gus, and Woody for shinning the best light possible onto cave diving!! We need more of that.
1:26 Gus looking at the camera like a gangsta...haha. Great way to start the morning with another Dive Talk video, look forward to see what Edd has to say!
Great episode. Its gotta be an honor to be able to talk and hang out with Ed, Brian, and Mike. I just can't imagine, 50-100 years from now there will be books about those 3 guys.
I watched this channel for about a year maybe a little less before I started my open water diver cert and everything I do underwater has Gus or Woodys voice behind it. Small adjustments to your bcd and breathing techniques and all that good stuff. I can't wait to take what I've learned from you two about cave diving and rebreathers and put it into real practice. You guys are awesome and a huge inspiration!
I've always wanted to dive, and finding this channel finally pushed me into starting certification courses. Right there with ya; Gus, Woody, and Edd's voices will always echo in my head while I'm diving. Every video is a constant stream of knowledge bombs!
this video is really helping to show my fiancee how safe these units are, and one step closer to me becoming a sidewinder diver. thank you guys for the amazing videos. woody said it best, that this is the only sport you can train and actually dive with the legends.
Edd is a genius and a rockstar, love all the episodes where you feature him. Only other variable that I could think of would be that victim got tangled and was doing lots of work with very high abnormally high metabolic rate with doing skip breathing or less total breaths. I dont know very interesting story and discussion, I wish I would have heard y'alls two cents on what happened.
Loved this technical episode! I especially love that everything was relatively easy to understand and Edd's occasional sarcasm was delightful. Speaking of Edd, "I know a little bit about the sidewinder. I spent a year diving it before anybody else did, I am sidewinder instructor #1, I am sidewinder instructor trainer #1, I am sidewinder instructor trainer examiner #1. I dove prototype unit #1. I now currently have prototype unit #2." ~ Ultimate G.O.A.T. flex right there. For those of you who are international DIVE TALK members, like me, that can't join the membership crew or Patreon because we live in countries that don't allow it, we can still support our Goody (Gus and Woody) boys with the following steps: 1. Subscribe to their TH-cam channel and click the bell to get all their notifications (if you haven't already, of course). 2. Like their videos and leave a comment (it helps the TH-cam algorithm and shows their videos to those who really need to see it). 3. Share their videos on your social media (especially family and friends you know want to learn diving or just loves the sea). 4. Buy DIVE TALK merch and feel like part of the crew every time you watch the latest DIVE TALK episode. Happy weekend, Gus, Wood, Edd, and Mehdi!
Wow, I love what you said about Edd's delightful sarcasm and major flex, he's right!! And thank you as one of their members, for sharing how others can support our guys even from far away, that's very admirable of you!!
Not only is Edd just an American badass legend but you can tell when you're talking to a real pro because not only are they confident with what they are talking about or doing but they make you confident in what they are doing as well. I hope he's a regular on the channel, I feel like there is so much more to tell.
What an effective way to put and end to rumours and speculations. I really enjoy this experiments videos. I can watch you dive, and I really enjoy that. It's interesting from a technological standpoint, and I think that I've learned so much about rebreathers that I think I could sketch a rough diagram on how they works. Last, but not least, I love experiments in general. It's the best way to test and to (as in this case) prove your hypothesis. Great work guys!
@@Josh-hr5mc I agree. I'm not a diver, but I plan to start open water diving in the near future when my son gets older, and I'm going to test every possible and testable situations in a safe environment. I want to know my gear and how I react to different situations.
Cave diving is fast becoming that one forbidden fruit I just have to taste before I die. The technicals involved in this stuff are fascinating to me. I know I have found something when I turn on your videos and my heart gets moving a bit faster just listening to your descriptions. I’ve hated life since my brother died 10 years ago and I feel like I need something like a good cave dive to even start living again. At 42, I feel like I’m waiting to die already. I’m envious of you guys for doing something so crazy and adventurous. One day I’m doing it.
Edd must have mad respect for you guys, considering how much time he spends with you. I am not a diver & never will be, but I watch your videos every day.
Wow just wow!! Woody and you Gus in your Element is just inspiring!! To watch Ed and The “” Dive talk cameraman” Woodster and Gus smashing down diving doors like A swat team is just new ground. Bringing more light to technical diving with video evidence not hearsay not probability but video truth is a light we need shined on this incredible activity. I simply love the fact that Ed basically tells you straight up dive the set up you wanna dive that makes you comfortable to the safest it can be. Now boys and girls that’s a man with no ego at the top of his game telling you you don’t have to dive his set up and he can still teach you how to be the best that you can be. Well done boys well freaking done!!
Mr. Sorenson is an amazing human being. Ive always been interested in both diving and also rebreather technologies. The way he explains/talks/shows everything is just awesome. Between his amazing demeanor, his absolute superhero actions and at the same time, how humble he seems....If I were a diver, I would trust this man with my life as my instructor or to come save me if I were to be in a bad situation.
I am a respiratory therapist and love all of this! We have used subatmospheric oxygen in the NICU population and hyperbaric therapy for patients with wounds to increase PaO2. Love it!! FiO2 falls in circuit and PaO2 falls in blood
Long time viewer here, I am a non-diver myself but find all your content amazing, educational, and extremely interesting 😀. Always love it when Edd is on! Keep up the fantastic work guys!!
I love how the knwoledge complexity has evolved with time. If you watch older videos, you'll find Gus explaining the essentials of diving, and now we've reached a point where Edd himself is sharing his technical knowledge. This channel is an amazing journy.
One thing that you have to admire is the level of passion these guys have for diving even though I am not as anywhere near passionate about diving I can appreciate the content based on the sheer level of passion and the in depth knowledge no pun intended I do love the water and a very natural swimmer in water have been all my life but never been diving you guys make me want to try it bad I’m soaking the safety and knowledge up like a sponge
Hey guys, love the content! I know alot of the viewers aren't divers and aren't familiar with tec diving, but I appreciate that you didnt over simplify edd's points for us.
Never gone SCUBA diving in my life, but I'm a native Floridian so i have some sort of draw to it despite the fact i likely wont do it myself, I enjoy this content and the education it provides for such a complex and incredible hobby or profession that people pursue.
I'm new to the world of diving, but I love these hyper technical videos. They force me to go look up and learn about new things every time I watch them. Solid stuff, thanks guys!
Thank God that I can understand what Edd is saying but that's because I'm a critical care nurse. Plus i live on an island with a decompression chamber. I love watching these videos. Keep up the great work.
Absolutely amazing educational video. Answered so many questions I had about CCR theory. Thank you Edd, Woody, Medhi and Gus for this exceptional video. Looking forward to the next one. Dive safe.
I absolutely love listening to these world-class cave divers and technical divers this channel is absolutely awesome and definitely a hidden gem of a channel although it's growing and good reason!
This is a great explanation with this video as an open circuit diver a lot of the technical stuff is at least comprehendable but the way you guys lay everything out in terms a non diver could understand is bloody awesome.
I'd just wanted to highlight Edd's latest comment: your computer is confirmation, not information. I think this applies for even recreational diving, as it carries an intrinsic heightened sense of awareness and therefore safety. Also, always good to remember my ppO2 classes. Great video, very educational!
Very interesting guys. Edd is such a confident, knowledgeable, and reassuring presence. I bet he's an awesome instructor. Woody, totally unrelated question, but I can't help myself. I'm so perplexed as to why your fins are orange and not pink. Thanks for all the content and great info guys🙂
This was the most instructional video I've seen. Probably need to rewatch it 3-4 times and start taking notes and probably come back once I actually start Rebreather training to fully understand all that was discussed, but still extremely valuable. Thanks to all of you guys ❤
I love you gents so very much. You really break this down in an easy way to understand and I commend you for the learning you provide to both divers and non-divers.
Another great video. I agree with your viewpoint of the rebreather being safer than open circuit. Hopefully one day rebreathers become affordable for the average diver. They really are simple machines in the end.
You guys are awesome! You continue to keep my hype alive while I wait for my open water class this spring. And one day I hope to come out, meet, and dive with all of you.
I can’t wait to see these guys hit 1 mil subs, I’d say within 2 years, if even that... Also their underwater footage in this video is just as good if not better than all the other ones that woody complements in other videos... great work
Woo hoo a new video from my favorite channel! I just found you guys a few weeks ago, and now I talk about yalls channel to anyone who will listen 😂 much love for you guys! (Totally random - Woody is so cute to me 🥰).
I really enjoy lissen to people that knows what they talking about. TH-cam is so so full of BS talking people so im really happy that i can sit down and watch proffesional folks. Thanks! Best regards// Jesper from Sweden
'A fatality that hasn't picked a location yet' 🤣 I'm enjoying learning about rebreathers, I didn't even know they existed. I knew nothing really about diving.
Edd sounds like that bad ass marine, with a dash of Captain Ron. Absolutely awesome hearing the dude explain the technicalities of the system. Thanks for sharing guys!!!!
Extremely informative. I’m hooked on these videos. I’m not a diver, and the thought of screwing up underwater terrifies me. I think I’d forget something important and die foolishly.
I'm not into water, or diving or whatever, but I absolutely LOVE hearing experts talk about their craft, whatever it is. And hearing a guy like Edd, who clearly has A TON of experience, talking about the thing he loves (diving), is just awesome. GREAT video!
When is a company going to make a dive mask that shows a HUD display in your goggles of your computer read out? So even if you silt out, you can still see your computer stats. Someone make that.
@@DIVETALK so I looked at that and it’s not quite what I mean by a HUD. I mean a display inside your goggles that is a faded read out you can either focus on, or look beyond. Like a fighter pilot helmet has for example.
One of the soft signs for me as to how skilled and knowledgeable someone is on any given topic is how threatened they are by questions or differing opinions. Thus, it's telling that Edd is not at all doctrinaire and is completely unflappable when confronted by a difference of opinion. He really is a hoopy frood who knows where his towel is.
Hi from UK 🇬🇧 im late to this but all I have to say is whatever ED has to say I trust 100% with my life!!! No one in the world is more qualified than ED!💯💪👊
Hey, just reaching out. You guys should maybe do an episode with someone from the tulum area and talk about the issue theyre having with the government wanting to develop a train system ontop of the largest cave system in the world. Im sure anyone whos a cave diver or interested in becoming one has heard about the issue and signed the petition but being that your audience consists of tons of non divers maybe it would be good to spread the word. Also im enjoying the episodes with edd and others keep up the good work!
I had never heard of him at the beginning of this month, but now that I've watched a mere handful of videos about him I think Edd Sorenson might be my favorite person.
Hi guys, this was a great show, and I enjoyed it very much. It was fun to see Ed.D with you guys again. I am now 80.5 years old, and do not ever intend to die. But I enjoy learning about diving, and you guys make it fun.
This was great. This is exactly the kind of technical information that someone with no diving experience but a lot of biology and chemistry and physics would need to understand qualitatively what goes on with a rebreather. I do still wonder how much dead space there is in a rebreather. It seems like that would increasingly remove the effectiveness of the scrubbers the more the dead space to counterlung voume ratio increased.
I look forward to the follow-up, with starting from a PO2 of 0.4 ATA. At Edd's oxygen consumption rate, it would have taken him about 6 minutes to go severely hypoxic if he would have started at 0.4 instead of 1.3 ATA. An inexperienced diver in less stellar physical shape, not maintaining minimum loop volume, could likely go hypoxic in 4-5 minutes without the ADV firing. Oxygen shut-off valves obviously have a place in diving, as so many are successfully using them, but saying that it's impossible to go hypoxic is a little provocative. ;) For the follow-up video, why not take Edd, Gus and Woody all wearing a sidewinder while walking on Edd's treadmill. All start at a PO2 of 0.4 ATA with two lungfulls in the counter lung. Disconnect oxygen and diluent, then time it to see how long it takes each one of you to reach 0.2 ATA, just to keep it within safe limits.
To me he just showed that loop volume with the oxygen shut off becomes way to difficult to even draw a breath without realizing there’s an issue before becoming hypoxic. I do love the thought of all of them on treadmills and they gotta be wearing masks for effect and Gus‘s favorite word flippers hahahaha in your idea. Let’s see it boys.
@@PeopleTheWe Well, he showed that with a starting PO2 of 1.3 and not an overly inflated counter lung. If you start from a lower PO2 and a more inflated counter lung, the result will obviously be quite different. In 5-6 minutes the PO2 had dropped from 1.3 to 1.0. So if the victim really started at 0.4, he could have become hypoxic in 4-5 minutes. That is still a long time to not be looking at your display, but more understandable than maybe 10-20 minutes.
@@andreashagberg9504 ok I see what your getting at. Also your channel, your comments are off so I’ll tell you here those are some sweet videos brother! Great job on those dives. Ya I can see your vis in the sink holes , yup tuff seeing in that but great shots on the dives . Best of luck and cheers brother
The reason why Ed Sorensen is so good at rescue and recovery is because he is an extremely intelligent person to go along with all that experience. I wish you guys had him as a guest more often.
I never noticed it until you guys pointed it out in a video but the way you experienced cave divers move in the water is completely alien from newbie divers. Like the frog-kicking is just instinct now.
@@DIVETALK oh my God, I just made a huge boo boo😅😆 Edd for f*** sake😆 I even tell my husband every time there's a video with Edd in it that we need to have his number on speed dial, every family member included😁 I need to fix that comment.😃
Edd chose diving because buoyancy makes it easier to transport those giant balls.
omg I'm dead bahahahahahaha
🤣🤣
The biggest of them all!!
😂😂 LMAO 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahaha so true😂
I think I’m in love with Edd now. He’s just so real and down to earth and realistic.
You are correct. He is definitely amazing.
Yeah. His story of the rescue in the boulders and I've had a crush since. He's such a great storyteller and breaks down the logistics and what he's thinking / his options so well.

I haven't been diving in quite a while, but I can tell you that I miss it very much, I would love to get back in the water and dive again! You should try it, but only if you are comfortable in the water and you get trained properly by professionals. If you do ever try it and you get certified, then remember this, you should never panic, because if you panic, then it could get you killed, so ALWAYS try to remain calm at all times when diving, I can't stress this enough!
@Roy Patterson I've never scuba dived before but I've watched most of Dive Talks video's and the number one thing I've learned is to not panic and stay calm!!!
I’ve always been so ignorant that I didn’t even realize how dangerous it can be, all this info is super interesting though even as a non diver
I try to tell people it's like the opposite of sky diving. Sky diving is the adrenaline pumping extreme activity. SCUBA diving is pretty extreme bc you are deciding to be ok with breathing underwater for a while. But in the paradise style of diving it's calm and quiet leisurely flight.
It's worth pointing out by SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE that the "cowboy days" of diving are past. The days of Jacques Cousteau pioneering the Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus and getting narc'd regularly are over and done... He and the many "Greats" of the business since have come and gone to see to it that this leisure activity or sport or whatever else you want to call it is just that, "Business"... Maybe a little unusual, but so long as you're following the rules that these pioneers laid out and some even lost their lives to learn, then no, it's not insane... and it's not required to have a death-wish.
We enjoy a level of technological progress and the pioneering spirit that's pushed the envelope literally EVERY DAY before we came upon this sport/activity. Just ten years ago, cave diving was considerably more dangerous than it is today. Rebreathers were still relatively new tech' and guys like Edd were still pioneering the FIRST prototypes of many of them... AND some of those prototypes failed catastrophically. Some of them didn't make it past the first test or two, and some (likely, since I'm not in the dive business, myself) may have cost lives when they failed in practice or the rules weren't so clearly known at the time...
I'm in my 40's, and I've seen the improvements in MY lifetime. There's a lot to be said about guys like Edd, doing their jobs and rescuing or recovering people to minimize hazards and public panic or knee-jerk restrictions and the rest... AND there's a LOT to be said about the guys inventing this stuff, redesigning these things, and being careful in every aspect of a new product or design and the competition to get deeper, go further, and do so on less for every new generation of such products.
My respect in full to EVERY ONE OF THEM... all the way back to Cousteau. They're ALL heroes for their drive, professionalism, and even the occasional arrogance with which they have all been driven toward the next great goal in their business. I may have only gone to a Discover Scuba place once, and I may well never do it again... BUT my hat's still off. ;o)
Hearing Edd talk and educate is so extremely inspirational. Very impressive to see how confident and knowledgable he is.
As a non diver.... can I just say this video brilliantly illustrates how frog kicks actually work and the actual physics of it... you can observe the transfer of energy from Edd to the fins to the water. It's awesome.
Well there's a reason why they're called frog kicks! If you see it in nature, chances are it works. Especially if you are looking at fish crustaceans or amphibians etc when wanting to do anything ocean/water related
@@PoptartParasol excellent point!
@@PoptartParasol shieeeet, Imagine how fast you’d swim if your legs were as fast as a frog
As a Respiratory Therapist I have a pretty good grasp on the things Edd is discussing in this video such as p02 and c02, etc. It makes watching these videos so much fun!
Interesting to learn that in your world as Divers it's called a Loop Volume. In my world it's called a Tidal Volume, or Vt. And when one takes a maximum breath it's called a Vital Capacity. We can calculate these things while performing Pulmonary Function Testing.
Anyway, good work you guys. I'm not a Diver myself, but I'm a huge fan of what you're doing!
I totally agree I’m an RN and find this content totally relatable. I worked with some very outstanding RTs during my career and you guys are life savers. People have not given you the recognition you deserve in managing COVID patients on ventilators. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
@@Dharmarenee Totally, you guys understand this stuff too! Doesn't it make it fun to listen to what they're saying? And thank you do much for the kind words. I really appreciate it. I learned so much about team dynamics and collaboration during the height of Covid. How important every single department was for the welfare of our patients. We definitely couldn't do our jobs if it wasn't for the amazing job you guys do. Everyone down to EVS making sure the rooms were sanitized in a timely manner. I have such a huge appreciation for all of the hard work and dedication everyone put in!
It's so cool to hear from two different professionals that use the same information in different capacities.
I always feel impressed when I hear guys like Edd Sorenson, Brian Kakuk, Steve Bogaerts, Lamar Hires, and others speak and they are accepting of people's individualities. These highly-experienced bona fide divers, explorers and instructors are the cream of the crop and they are receptive to different ideas; they do not go around saying everybody is stupid and dumb; they are warm and helpful when we contact them - I have contacted all I mentioned here and they always responded even though I'm a grain of sand in the Sahara.
It is always the SH**-HEADS who have narcissistic complex and Dora-the-Explorer complex who are rude and full of themselves.
Thank you, Edd, Gus, and Woody for shinning the best light possible onto cave diving!! We need more of that.
1:26 Gus looking at the camera like a gangsta...haha. Great way to start the morning with another Dive Talk video, look forward to see what Edd has to say!
I've never seen these guys so happy before. Ed is like the cave diving communities dad.
Great episode. Its gotta be an honor to be able to talk and hang out with Ed, Brian, and Mike. I just can't imagine, 50-100 years from now there will be books about those 3 guys.
OMG!!! Thanks so much Gus and Woody for making my day! Having Edd, Mike Young and Jonathan as your (regular, please 😂) guests is always AWESOME!! 😆
I watched this channel for about a year maybe a little less before I started my open water diver cert and everything I do underwater has Gus or Woodys voice behind it. Small adjustments to your bcd and breathing techniques and all that good stuff. I can't wait to take what I've learned from you two about cave diving and rebreathers and put it into real practice. You guys are awesome and a huge inspiration!
I've always wanted to dive, and finding this channel finally pushed me into starting certification courses. Right there with ya; Gus, Woody, and Edd's voices will always echo in my head while I'm diving. Every video is a constant stream of knowledge bombs!
this video is really helping to show my fiancee how safe these units are, and one step closer to me becoming a sidewinder diver. thank you guys for the amazing videos. woody said it best, that this is the only sport you can train and actually dive with the legends.
Gus' silence is the most admirable part of this video. Such an acute listener.
Edd is so professional. Imagine to be able to reach that level, the stuff that he has to go through
Now this is amazing content. More busting diving and rebreather myths with Edd. Looking forward to the next one
I'm really in need of more stories from Edd. Recovery, rescue, whatever he's got, I'm positive I'm not alone in this lol
Edd is a genius and a rockstar, love all the episodes where you feature him. Only other variable that I could think of would be that victim got tangled and was doing lots of work with very high abnormally high metabolic rate with doing skip breathing or less total breaths. I dont know very interesting story and discussion, I wish I would have heard y'alls two cents on what happened.
Edd isnt just a hero, he’s such a good storyteller too! I could wrap myself in a blanket, drink a hot chocolate and listen to him for hours 🌸😊
Loved this technical episode! I especially love that everything was relatively easy to understand and Edd's occasional sarcasm was delightful.
Speaking of Edd, "I know a little bit about the sidewinder. I spent a year diving it before anybody else did, I am sidewinder instructor #1, I am sidewinder instructor trainer #1, I am sidewinder instructor trainer examiner #1. I dove prototype unit #1. I now currently have prototype unit #2." ~ Ultimate G.O.A.T. flex right there.
For those of you who are international DIVE TALK members, like me, that can't join the membership crew or Patreon because we live in countries that don't allow it, we can still support our Goody (Gus and Woody) boys with the following steps:
1. Subscribe to their TH-cam channel and click the bell to get all their notifications (if you haven't already, of course).
2. Like their videos and leave a comment (it helps the TH-cam algorithm and shows their videos to those who really need to see it).
3. Share their videos on your social media (especially family and friends you know want to learn diving or just loves the sea).
4. Buy DIVE TALK merch and feel like part of the crew every time you watch the latest DIVE TALK episode.
Happy weekend, Gus, Wood, Edd, and Mehdi!
Wow, I love what you said about Edd's delightful sarcasm and major flex, he's right!! And thank you as one of their members, for sharing how others can support our guys even from far away, that's very admirable of you!!
'Goody'!! Haha that's awesome!
Edd has to be one of the most bravest men ever to live. I’d be beyond terrified to do what he dose he’s an absolute hero
He is the personification of head down and lock in
Not only is Edd just an American badass legend but you can tell when you're talking to a real pro because not only are they confident with what they are talking about or doing but they make you confident in what they are doing as well. I hope he's a regular on the channel, I feel like there is so much more to tell.
What an effective way to put and end to rumours and speculations. I really enjoy this experiments videos. I can watch you dive, and I really enjoy that. It's interesting from a technological standpoint, and I think that I've learned so much about rebreathers that I think I could sketch a rough diagram on how they works. Last, but not least, I love experiments in general. It's the best way to test and to (as in this case) prove your hypothesis. Great work guys!
In all honesty a test like this in a pool is something I think everyone should so they can get an idea of whats what.
@@Josh-hr5mc I agree. I'm not a diver, but I plan to start open water diving in the near future when my son gets older, and I'm going to test every possible and testable situations in a safe environment. I want to know my gear and how I react to different situations.
I love Edd. He's such a smarta** but it comes from the insane level of intelligence he has about diving.
Edd is just so passionate about the sport and I really enjoy his presence as an instructor. Thanks Edd for doing what you do in the manner you do it.
Cave diving is fast becoming that one forbidden fruit I just have to taste before I die. The technicals involved in this stuff are fascinating to me. I know I have found something when I turn on your videos and my heart gets moving a bit faster just listening to your descriptions. I’ve hated life since my brother died 10 years ago and I feel like I need something like a good cave dive to even start living again. At 42, I feel like I’m waiting to die already. I’m envious of you guys for doing something so crazy and adventurous. One day I’m doing it.
Edd must have mad respect for you guys, considering how much time he spends with you. I am not a diver & never will be, but I watch your videos every day.
Wow just wow!! Woody and you Gus in your Element is just inspiring!! To watch Ed and The “” Dive talk cameraman” Woodster and Gus smashing down diving doors like A swat team is just new ground. Bringing more light to technical diving with video evidence not hearsay not probability but video truth is a light we need shined on this incredible activity. I simply love the fact that Ed basically tells you straight up dive the set up you wanna dive that makes you comfortable to the safest it can be. Now boys and girls that’s a man with no ego at the top of his game telling you you don’t have to dive his set up and he can still teach you how to be the best that you can be. Well done boys well freaking done!!
Mr. Sorenson is an amazing human being. Ive always been interested in both diving and also rebreather technologies. The way he explains/talks/shows everything is just awesome. Between his amazing demeanor, his absolute superhero actions and at the same time, how humble he seems....If I were a diver, I would trust this man with my life as my instructor or to come save me if I were to be in a bad situation.
I am a respiratory therapist and love all of this! We have used subatmospheric oxygen in the NICU population and hyperbaric therapy for patients with wounds to increase PaO2. Love it!!
FiO2 falls in circuit and PaO2 falls in blood
I’m not a diver, but I love this channel. I’ve learned all about diving and have never done it !
And I never miss an Edd video, he is too cute 😉
Long time viewer here, I am a non-diver myself but find all your content amazing, educational, and extremely interesting 😀. Always love it when Edd is on! Keep up the fantastic work guys!!
I love how the knwoledge complexity has evolved with time. If you watch older videos, you'll find Gus explaining the essentials of diving, and now we've reached a point where Edd himself is sharing his technical knowledge. This channel is an amazing journy.
One thing that you have to admire is the level of passion these guys have for diving even though I am not as anywhere near passionate about diving I can appreciate the content based on the sheer level of passion and the in depth knowledge no pun intended
I do love the water and a very natural swimmer in water have been all my life but never been diving you guys make me want to try it bad I’m soaking the safety and knowledge up like a sponge
Hey guys, love the content!
I know alot of the viewers aren't divers and aren't familiar with tec diving, but I appreciate that you didnt over simplify edd's points for us.
Never gone SCUBA diving in my life, but I'm a native Floridian so i have some sort of draw to it despite the fact i likely wont do it myself, I enjoy this content and the education it provides for such a complex and incredible hobby or profession that people pursue.
I learn so much from Edd and I’ve never dived before! He’s a natural instructor!
I'm new to the world of diving, but I love these hyper technical videos. They force me to go look up and learn about new things every time I watch them. Solid stuff, thanks guys!
Thank God that I can understand what Edd is saying but that's because I'm a critical care nurse. Plus i live on an island with a decompression chamber. I love watching these videos. Keep up the great work.
I have definitely learned a bit of rebreathers and PPO2 today! Thanks guys and thanks Edd and Mehdi!
Absolutely amazing educational video. Answered so many questions I had about CCR theory. Thank you Edd, Woody, Medhi and Gus for this exceptional video.
Looking forward to the next one.
Dive safe.
I absolutely love listening to these world-class cave divers and technical divers this channel is absolutely awesome and definitely a hidden gem of a channel although it's growing and good reason!
Edd's lesson on rebreathers/gas mixes/PO2/CO2 made perfect sense to me, & I'm not a diver. Great info, very clear. Thanks for the lesson.
I love this channel so much! Not even a diver. Just the people, man. They are just so awesome!
That was great guys! Love seeing Edd it's always a sweet treat because learn so much from Edd. Keep the good work.
Most incredible dive video I've watched, absolutely inspiring, all of you are outstanding people, keep up the amazing work and videos. Love it
The first minute and a half of this video is the best humble flex ive ever seen. Ed is an absolute legend.😂
This is a great explanation with this video as an open circuit diver a lot of the technical stuff is at least comprehendable but the way you guys lay everything out in terms a non diver could understand is bloody awesome.
I'd just wanted to highlight Edd's latest comment: your computer is confirmation, not information. I think this applies for even recreational diving, as it carries an intrinsic heightened sense of awareness and therefore safety. Also, always good to remember my ppO2 classes. Great video, very educational!
Really like Edd's no nonsense approach, it's refreshing to see in the religion of Scuba.
Please keep bringing Edd to the episodes :) Amazing content! Congratulations!! A big thank you and amazing job U guys!
Very interesting guys. Edd is such a confident, knowledgeable, and reassuring presence. I bet he's an awesome instructor.
Woody, totally unrelated question, but I can't help myself. I'm so perplexed as to why your fins are orange and not pink.
Thanks for all the content and great info guys🙂
This was the most instructional video I've seen. Probably need to rewatch it 3-4 times and start taking notes and probably come back once I actually start Rebreather training to fully understand all that was discussed, but still extremely valuable. Thanks to all of you guys ❤
Sidewinder instructor #1....my god the flex
I had anxiety watching Ed do that. Even I had shallow breaths! 🤣
I love you gents so very much. You really break this down in an easy way to understand and I commend you for the learning you provide to both divers and non-divers.
Another great video.
I agree with your viewpoint of the rebreather being safer than open circuit. Hopefully one day rebreathers become affordable for the average diver. They really are simple machines in the end.
knowing the truth of an incident is essential in finding the cause, excellent work on the video and thanks Edd for bringing us this knowledge.
You guys are awesome! You continue to keep my hype alive while I wait for my open water class this spring. And one day I hope to come out, meet, and dive with all of you.
I can’t wait to see these guys hit 1 mil subs, I’d say within 2 years, if even that...
Also their underwater footage in this video is just as good if not better than all the other ones that woody complements in other videos... great work
Woo hoo a new video from my favorite channel! I just found you guys a few weeks ago, and now I talk about yalls channel to anyone who will listen 😂 much love for you guys! (Totally random - Woody is so cute to me 🥰).
I really enjoy lissen to people that knows what they talking about. TH-cam is so so full of BS talking people so im really happy that i can sit down and watch proffesional folks.
Thanks!
Best regards//
Jesper from Sweden
Been a very long week at work and watching you guys and edd while enjoying a cold one is an excellent way to unwind lol cheers and stay safe guys!
Can't wait for the next one with Edd❣️Love your channel Gus and Woody ❣️ Greetings from Finland
I want to see more videos of EDD, cheers, chaps. :)
'A fatality that hasn't picked a location yet' 🤣 I'm enjoying learning about rebreathers, I didn't even know they existed. I knew nothing really about diving.
Edd sounds like that bad ass marine, with a dash of Captain Ron.
Absolutely awesome hearing the dude explain the technicalities of the system.
Thanks for sharing guys!!!!
Today i took my apple watch ultra2 on a dive to 2.3m depth in the swimming pool....
For those few seconds i felt like Edd....
Great video
Extremely informative. I’m hooked on these videos. I’m not a diver, and the thought of screwing up underwater terrifies me. I think I’d forget something important and die foolishly.
Thanks you guys!! I’m no diver but this content is very interesting, will definitely stay tuned for the next videos.
I'm not into water, or diving or whatever, but I absolutely LOVE hearing experts talk about their craft, whatever it is. And hearing a guy like Edd, who clearly has A TON of experience, talking about the thing he loves (diving), is just awesome. GREAT video!
Thanks for making this, love the technical videos!
Awesome, thanks for the experiment and review!
Amazing Video. Love to see this done in a cave and with such a great group of guys! Florida Diver here!!!.
When is a company going to make a dive mask that shows a HUD display in your goggles of your computer read out? So even if you silt out, you can still see your computer stats.
Someone make that.
Shearwater Nerd 2
@@DIVETALK so I looked at that and it’s not quite what I mean by a HUD. I mean a display inside your goggles that is a faded read out you can either focus on, or look beyond. Like a fighter pilot helmet has for example.
Oceanic Datamask HUD
Ed - literally one of the most badass men alive and pretty much a real life super hero.
One of the soft signs for me as to how skilled and knowledgeable someone is on any given topic is how threatened they are by questions or differing opinions. Thus, it's telling that Edd is not at all doctrinaire and is completely unflappable when confronted by a difference of opinion. He really is a hoopy frood who knows where his towel is.
Every video you guys post is just such a joy. It makes my boring day at work somewhat fun. Keep up the good work and thank you so much.
Hi from UK 🇬🇧 im late to this but all I have to say is whatever ED has to say I trust 100% with my life!!! No one in the world is more qualified than ED!💯💪👊
Hey, just reaching out. You guys should maybe do an episode with someone from the tulum area and talk about the issue theyre having with the government wanting to develop a train system ontop of the largest cave system in the world. Im sure anyone whos a cave diver or interested in becoming one has heard about the issue and signed the petition but being that your audience consists of tons of non divers maybe it would be good to spread the word.
Also im enjoying the episodes with edd and others keep up the good work!
I had never heard of him at the beginning of this month, but now that I've watched a mere handful of videos about him I think Edd Sorenson might be my favorite person.
There is always a chance of an accident in any endeavor. Glad to have such pros looking into it.
Hi guys, this was a great show, and I enjoyed it very much. It was fun to see Ed.D with you guys again. I am now 80.5 years old, and do not ever intend to die. But I enjoy learning about diving, and you guys make it fun.
Not a diver but i cant get enough of this content thanks woody gus and edd
Same!
Awesome yous guys!I totally enjoyed the education today after work..LoudLove🤙🏾🔊🔊🔊💜💜💜
Ed is an absolute Legend ! Edit: Gus my guy, No dejes de hacer lo que estás haciendo, te ves muy bien, sigue así, mucho respecto.
This was great. This is exactly the kind of technical information that someone with no diving experience but a lot of biology and chemistry and physics would need to understand qualitatively what goes on with a rebreather.
I do still wonder how much dead space there is in a rebreather. It seems like that would increasingly remove the effectiveness of the scrubbers the more the dead space to counterlung voume ratio increased.
Makes me wanna go to the ocean now and practice free diving some more. I've only ever dived solo though so probably not a great idea
This type of content is sick!!! Keep up the great content and vibes Woody and Gus. Always so cool to see Ed on.
I LOVED this video! great seeing you all together, informative but easy to follow. Really great
Love these tech talks with EDD.
I look forward to the follow-up, with starting from a PO2 of 0.4 ATA. At Edd's oxygen consumption rate, it would have taken him about 6 minutes to go severely hypoxic if he would have started at 0.4 instead of 1.3 ATA. An inexperienced diver in less stellar physical shape, not maintaining minimum loop volume, could likely go hypoxic in 4-5 minutes without the ADV firing. Oxygen shut-off valves obviously have a place in diving, as so many are successfully using them, but saying that it's impossible to go hypoxic is a little provocative. ;) For the follow-up video, why not take Edd, Gus and Woody all wearing a sidewinder while walking on Edd's treadmill. All start at a PO2 of 0.4 ATA with two lungfulls in the counter lung. Disconnect oxygen and diluent, then time it to see how long it takes each one of you to reach 0.2 ATA, just to keep it within safe limits.
Just wondering. PPo2 of 1.0 or 0.9 I can understand but why would you want to be at 0.4 ?
@@Signixeu I though Edd said that the accident victim started at .4 when the slider shut-off was closed..?
To me he just showed that loop volume with the oxygen shut off becomes way to difficult to even draw a breath without realizing there’s an issue before becoming hypoxic. I do love the thought of all of them on treadmills and they gotta be wearing masks for effect and Gus‘s favorite word flippers hahahaha in your idea. Let’s see it boys.
@@PeopleTheWe Well, he showed that with a starting PO2 of 1.3 and not an overly inflated counter lung. If you start from a lower PO2 and a more inflated counter lung, the result will obviously be quite different. In 5-6 minutes the PO2 had dropped from 1.3 to 1.0. So if the victim really started at 0.4, he could have become hypoxic in 4-5 minutes. That is still a long time to not be looking at your display, but more understandable than maybe 10-20 minutes.
@@andreashagberg9504 ok I see what your getting at. Also your channel, your comments are off so I’ll tell you here those are some sweet videos brother! Great job on those dives. Ya I can see your vis in the sink holes , yup tuff seeing in that but great shots on the dives . Best of luck and cheers brother
The reason why Ed Sorensen is so good at rescue and recovery is because he is an extremely intelligent person to go along with all that experience. I wish you guys had him as a guest more often.
Ed Sorensonson is the bravest man and craziest I know from YT! The man is totally crazy because he endangeres his life to help others! RESPECT!
Any video with Edd is excellent.
I don't even dive, I'm just watching vids with Edd because he's a legend. There needs to be a doc about him.
I never noticed it until you guys pointed it out in a video but the way you experienced cave divers move in the water is completely alien from newbie divers. Like the frog-kicking is just instinct now.
Edd in the opening of the video "I'm Edd what more do you want me to say"😂
Mike?
@@DIVETALK oh my God, I just made a huge boo boo😅😆 Edd for f*** sake😆 I even tell my husband every time there's a video with Edd in it that we need to have his number on speed dial, every family member included😁 I need to fix that comment.😃
