I think maybe Dave Not Coming? If so, I also watched and gave me chills, inspired and saddened beyond words-incredible story and lose of lives, friendships and true compassion ❤
This is in part true. Yes, when he pulled Deon’s body from the mud, he originally believed the body to be bones and have a zero buoyancy, however the body had actually turned into a soap like substance. Only the hands were skeletal so when he pulled the body from the mud, he tried to put the body bag over the legs but the body started spinning, which got entangled into his torch and the lines. He tried to cut the lines, but being he was so deep underwater it was similar to if he were jogging on the surface. Deon’s head became detached in the process. While Dave was trying to cut the lines he started breathing more heavily which caused him to breathe in more carbons dioxide, ultimately causing him to pass out and drown.
You are incorrect!! Dion had been at the bottom of Bushman’s Hole for 10 YEARS when Dave Shaw went down to collect his body. Dave had a dream showing where Dion’s body was. Many divers had looked for Dion, but couldn’t find him. Dave went to the bottom of the hole and had to let go of the safety line in order to look for the spot where he had seen Dion in his dream. And that is indeed where Dion was. But Dion’s body was partially buried in deep mud, and it was the effort it took to free him from the mud that caused Dave to go through his air faster than normal. He also was briefly tangled in all the ropes. They said everything Dave was having to do at the bottom of Bushman’s hole was equivalent to running as fast as possible up on dry ground. He should have just left the body in the hole in which he was already buried under water.
Deon was not recently deceased, he'd been down there over 10 years and neither of the recovery divers knew him personally. They just did it because they felt it was the right thing to do to finally lay him to rest properly. They both knew that they had a 50% chance of dying; and that's exactly what happened. One died and one survived, but the surviving diver nearly died and is now deaf in one ear.
No…. This is just…. No. Dave’s torch got tangled in the line. He spent time trying to untangle himself and you can see him attempt to cut the line back with shears in his video. His camera was not shoulder mounted. It was helmet mounted…. A camera style that Dave had never used. Deon’s body was LESS decomposed than Dave expected. This made Deon’s body MORE buoyant, causing Deon to float when Dave began working with his body. Dave and Deon were not “pulled” back to the surface. They began an uncontrolled ascent. When Dave’s technical team went back to retrieve equipment in the following days, both of their body’s were found tangled together. It was like they just appeared for the team to find and recover. The best documentary surrounding this incident is Dave Not Coming Back. It’s told mostly by his best friend and closest dive buddy, Don Shirley. Don was on the recovery dive for Deon and he almost lost his life, too. Please, go watch it before you tell his story.
Actually, while strain played a part, from what I understand, Dave Shaw’s O2 apparatus became tangled with the equipment still on Deon Dreyer’s body, and his entire rebreathing apparatus was pulled apart on camera. You can see it in the documentary, “Dave Not Coming Back,” but it is a disturbing watch, so use care if you choose to watch it. Very sobering stuff. Dave did his best to make his and Deon Dreyer’s bodies as recoverable as possible, and they were both eventually recovered. Rest in peace to both Deon and Dave.
Im confused so did he over work the capability of the rebreather to filter C02? How did it stop producing from him over excerting? Do they have a finite cartridge/ filter type system?
It’s a tank that mixes when you relax it’s enough but when you over work you breathe more thus exhausting the co2 once he realize he ran out he knew he wasn’t coming up alive but still managed to wrap the body to himself and the line so they could both have a funeral.
No. That’s a good question though. What happened was that it got tangled in the line holding Dave Shaw’s flashlight, since the camera on Dave’s helmet made it impossible for him to wear his flashlight around his neck as he normally would have. Then the line holding Dave’s flashlight got further tangled in the rebreather and pulled his O2 setup apart, leading him to pass away. Dave knew what was happening and did what he could to make his and Deon’s bodies easy for the team to retrieve if they so chose.
Imagine being loved so much by someone they risk and lose their life to give you a proper burial and closure for his family❤❤❤ rest in peace Dave!!!
Yeah I saw this on a show on tv I dont remember what it was called but it gave me the chills,rest in peace dave

Your right people make there own stories up
@@800forlife They absolutely do. And it’s human nature to do so.
This is very sad 😢
God bless you both 🫡

@thischicksmobilerepair2165 wait so it was just a standard oxygen tank that ran out?
@@MontanaKid43 no I think two different chemicals because if the depth

RIP. True hero😢
You said recently deceased body? From my understanding, that body was down there for 10 years.
Deon drown in 1994. Shaw died in 2005 trying to recover the body. You say that is " recently deceased "?
😮
He got tangled on the line
Many inaccuracy in this. You should be ashamed and embarrassed.
You are a true mf with your story intended to make views and not telling the truth. Shame on you for such a lie.
