I absolutely...ABSOLUTELY love listening to Edd Sorenson tell stories. He is such a great story teller.
That's the thing, these aren't 'stories', these are 'recounts' of what he experienced himself. Stories are for children's books and journalism ;)
@@RwP223 thats a strange point to make but I guess I get what you're saying. I wasn't using the word stories to imply they werent true. There is an art to story telling, recounting events etc. Ed absolutely has that talent.
@@rhegafd His communication skills are above average, far exceeding my abilities as you've pointed out.
Nothing the op said was wrong or needed correcting lol these are non-fiction stories. Still a story.
@@rhegafd literally just heard Ed say "he tells me the story," when referring to what happened... dont sweat it, some people just have to be like that.
I love how Edd manages to go into a lot of detail when telling his stories, gruesome as they often are, yet never turns the gore into a mere plot device. That takes a great communicator, which is rare in people as technically skilled as he is.
Now I don't need to leave a comment, took the words outa my mouth.
Yep. I love his stories, he stays as factual as he can rather than just making stuff up to sound better. Chose to stop listening to a lot of channels because they just start making stuff up.
@@ghostface1066 I've then a White water kayaker are all my life I am interested in this but I'm not going to get into it.
Edd is at a level that does not require story telling tools. He is a real life super hero.
Edd is a certified legend.
some caves: muddy, cold, damp, claustrophobic, little room to navigate, zero visibility, danger of horrible death
some people: sounds like a fun hobby
Edd is awesome. I heard that sharks even have a week dedicated to him.
The chuck Norris of cave diving.
Sheriff's Dept "We've got pizza coming"
Story checks out
🤣
You have to respect a man who hydrates consistently.
Edd is a beast. Taking on massive responsibilities like this isn't an easy thing to do. He seems like he doesn't even question his destiny. He embraces it. Owns it.
I absolutely love listening to Edd's stories. It feels almost like 80% of them revolve around a central theme of "X is totally impossible, Edd says bet, Edd somehow does X and also does some other thing, Y, at the same time"
V. V
'If it's impossible call Edd'.... So this is how that came about. He is one awesome dude and a great story-teller to boot.
Did anyone notice?
When Edd speaks, he pauses and takes a big breath. Just like he’s always diving
Honored to have Edd Sorenson as my Full Cave Instructor. I went back the following day with 1 of the other 2 team members (both were regular cave diving buddies of mine). We pulled the line out which was left overnight, and turned over the fins & a few remaining pieces of gear to be given to the Family. The area was still very "breaky downy" as he put it, and we cleared the cave of gear & line then got the hell out of there as quickly as possible.
This was a rough recovery; & not everyone is built for it. I thankfully never had to see any of his remains, because the other 2 guys were visibly shaken for weeks after, and it took a while before they could talk about it at all.
Holy crap!! 😳
Edd is a national treasure. Guy is legendary.
Edd, sir, you are a National Treasure. God Bless you!!
I could literally listen to Edd tell stories all day long.❤🥰
I actually did! LOL. More to come!
If Edd have ever decided to write a book about his cave rescue cases/stories, I’d definitely buy it! He’s such a legend and seems very humble 😉😊☺️. Thanks so much Jonathan for giving us more Edd’s stories 😊
I asked him on a livestream with dive talk about a book. He said he has a ghost writer and it won’t be anytime soon, but eventually he will write a book.
I love that my husband knows if I ever get stuck in a cave to call Ed😂 any time he hears Ed on TH-cam now he’s like ‘he’s the one I have to call?’
I’m not sure why I’d ever be stuck in a cave or diving but he knows the drill 😂
Im an open water diver, Woody and Gus sent me here. I could listen to Edd's stories all day 😍
Edd is a genuine 1 of 1. No one in the world is like this man...What a legend
Waiting for the next one
We have another that is AMAZING but we are trying to locate some of the footage from the actual event, so we can really round it out.
Another Sorenson video already? You guys have made my weekend! Thanks for the wonderful work and consistent uploads, appreciate it.
When we were down there in December, we sat Edd down for a few stories.
@@BlueWorldplus Awesome! He’s a legend.
More Ed Sorenson, Mike Young and Martyn Farr etc brilliant story tellers
We are doing some dive stories later this month with Mike Young and I can't wait.
@@BlueWorldplus Great 👍
After I did my first solo dive (mapping a crystal clear quarry for my DM project), I thought I understood why he insists on doing these rescues alone, it's so relaxing when you only have to worry about yourself, you don't have to keep track of your dive buddy or a student or a group of students, it's nice in a familiar environment... Lol I'm guessing this experience is a major factor in that decision.
Edit: I'm not a cave diver (yet?), but I'm probably going to add Cave Adventurers phone number to my general emergency action plan.
I like the way Edd tells what happened, instead of giving us a limited perspective he recounts events in a way that let's us visualize it and build our own individual perspectives..
This man sounds like a blast to be around.
He is a very down-to-Earth dude. And the kindest person you would ever meet. Every time I see him, I get a big hug.
I know it's a lil gruesome but I could listen to these stories all day!
I dont dive , I will NEVER dive and I have NEVER understood the 'crazy people' who dive into caves. That all said, since I found Dive Talk, Edd and Mike I am HOOKED. I've watched unknown amounts of videos one after another ever since, I likely know more about diving and rescue than a cpl scuba divers I know lol.
A couple of times I've ALMOST wanted to dive in the ocean (near the shore lol), but more likely I'll just enjoy the adventures through these adventures and be happy with that.
One last thing... Edd and Mike and the people who dive to retrieve bodies from wrecks or who have gotten lost etc.. are TRUE HEROS. I have nothing but absolute respect 🙏
Edd stories never fail to amaze. He is truly a REAL Hero.
Edd and Mike young are both the best. If I was in trouble I'd want ed or Mike coming for me.
We all would.
Edd is the rockstar of the cave diving world. A legend in his own lifetime
I LOVE ❤ BLUE WORLD 🌎 AND EDD!
I just stumbled on a different video telling the story about one of Ed's rescues then searched him on here hoping to find these exact videos of him! He's totally got marine vibes. I'd love to hear an interview where he answers questions about how he developed his mentality and how he stays focused and non emotional in order to be efficient and get shit done. It's super inspiring and I think so beneficial for people to understand how many situations this is helpful for, especially when it comes to life or death situations.
Edd is famous cave diver, even I've heard of him! But I would never do what he does! Taking scuba into caves. That reminds me of taking first graders up Everest, under water. "No way buddy"!
Hanging on every word … love this guy!
I love Edds recovery stories!
You guys rule for doing all this content the last several months. Really great , just wanted to say thank you.
Much appreciated!
I Love how Edd tells it like it is
Edds an absolute unit
Edd in one of your videos which I can't find again, you tell a story about a diver on a recovery mission, he found an air pocket and a voice said "looking for a dead guy" that was so cool the guy was still alive. Can you post that video again in my email please and the rest of that video is well worth watching as well. You do rescue and recovery without charge you are such a humanitarian and a selfless guy, you are one in a million! I look forward to more of your videos.
Edd is a beast, wow, not all supermen wear a cape, this one wears a KISS. Does anyone know if Edd lived and owned a dive shop in Eugene oregon?
You can hear his evolution in his breathing, he is always ready to go below the water for a long time
At the risk of making light of tragedy and near tragedy, I’ve noticed a consistent theme in these stories and its that pizza seems to be THE meal for rescue and recovery.
Edd is a true warrior. Bold, noble, humble, and strong beyond measure. A man in a world of children, it seems
This dude is like the Shackleton of cave diving.
I love listening to Edd tell stories….
Ed is a real life super hero. Can you imagine the amount of selflessness it takes to risk your own life to recover a loved ones body so family members can have a sense of closure? He has such a pure soul🤍🕊️
Dang it, Jonathan. You owe me a good night's rest. I can't stop binge watching these and it's getting late. 😂
It's insane how he's breathing while talking like he would during divining. I can clearly tell he's doing this for long time.
It sounds so difficult but even I know it's even more difficult than I can imagine. Crazy
You should get Edd on for more stories. This is the type of man that only comes around once in a while, like once in a century.
He is like the S/Maj that stays cool when the Officers panick, stress and loose their minds.
I truly hope he realizes the day that he cannot do it anymore and retires and lives his life out without dying in an accident which I am sure he will as he has a sound mind and head on his shoulders. 👍🏻 😎
Edd needs to rescue more people so we can get some more stories!
I've been bingeing. 1045 first time I've heard him say he got scared. So he's actually human them!
Edd is fearless and determined yet not reckless. ❤him!
Such a great story teller. Thanks for keeping the videos coming out with Edd
We have more to come!!
Hell yeah a new Edd story! I’ve watched all the other ones multiple times, SO awesome to hear a new one! More please!!
More to come!
As always a pleasure

You can tell the validity of Mr. Sorensen's word and work just by the way he tells the stories because he's so precise in the way he describes things clearly. He's talked to a lot of police and giving reports
I love Ed’s stories he’s the GOAT for a reason man.
Anyone else think it’s hilarious how he sounds like he’s breathing with a regulator in even as he’s sitting there talking.
Cannot put into words how much I love seeing the Edd stories here and on Dive Talk. Is the Blue World team down in Cozumel with Mike and the Dive Talk guys this week?
Sadly we are not there with them this week. However we will be down there with them in July!! We will be diving with Mike in 2 weeks though.
The R Lee Ermey of diving!
This is so irrelevant but I had that same chair and I loved it so much. I couldn’t afford fancy outdoor furniture but I really wanted a lounging chair and this one was in my budget. It might not have been the most luxury piece but I sat on that chair to read outside so many times and I was living the good life. Eventually I wore it out and replaced it. RIP chair. You were loved.
LOL! RIP CHAIR!
Ed is a awesome story teller. Super cool to listen to. What a bad ass!
Edd is always a wonderful storyteller. Thank you for sharing.
Really glad this showed up on my feed.
I’ve canoed the lower Santa Fe and camped along that river many times. And the vast majority of the Suwannee too.
Ginnie Springs FL is a magical place geologically speaking…there are many other springs that are worth visiting as well up river from there, and a couple down river too, that are not so populated as Ginnie
I’ve always watched the divers suiting up in front of that grim reaper sign warning of many deaths. Always kinda creepy
U know a one of kind man like this guy Edd legitimately thinks about who is going to be able to do what he does after he’s gone. Stay drippy O.G. Edd
Man Ed's awesome to listen too. Glad this man is brave enough to get these people of these caves.
Edd’s stories are amazing. Real hero and legend.
He is great story teller.
Thank you!
The human will to survive & wedges himself to his death & a skilled divers will to deliver that son back to his family really choked me up bc I have 2 sons. ❤ Thanks for another great video.
Edd is a brave man. Respect
Got to love edd and mike young true pioneers
1999 is when I started my open-water training, and Edd was already a top cave diver. And 24 years later, I'm just a Master Scuba diver
Edd is an Institution. Love to hear his stories.
Hey Edd!! Whenever I’m watching dive disaster and your name comes up I get so excited and start yelling at my phone😂 Bless you for all the good you’ve done and continue to do!
"There's only one person crazy enough to attemp this... So he calls me up..." 😂
These videos with Ed are some of my favorite! He is a true hero 🤿
I hope he’s training others to do what he does. Though you can train all the time. But his mentality is really what separates Ed from everyone else. He’s able to shut off emotions during the events. That’s something you can’t teach.
It can easily be taught. I’m like that due to childhood abuse, so when things were bad in the Army, I didn’t shut down. I’d already been in very bad situations as a kid.
@@toscadonna I don’t believe that mentality can be easily taught. I think it’s very special. A very small percentage of the population can deal with stress like this.
@@toscadonnaagain.. it's not something that can be taught lol.
@@toscadonnayou just proved that it wasn’t taught to you. It was forced upon you by your circumstances… you just used this an an opportunity to show us how hard and badass you are but nobody cares because Ed is was more badass… so care to try again?
Watching this in Ireland 🇮🇪
And this man is a real life super hero ❤❤ amazing man.. and a living legend ♥️♥️♥️
I’m surprised if he wasn’t involved in the famous Thai cave rescue of a few years back
Me too. I love his voice. He's so amazing & nonchalant about it all.
I think the love of cave diving and also saving 5 people and endangering your lives to go above and beyond to recover other so that their family can have closure. The fact that that you save Josh in Merritt's Mill pond 🙏🏾
I love the Edd stories! Thanks for sharing!
These Ed stories are gold! Thank you
I absolutely loved hearing these interesting stories, I really do idolize you guys for your professionalism and bravery!

This man is the epitome of bravery and integrity. Godbless you Edd❤

Wow this guy is a amazing hero and a legend
This guy truly is amazing! Risks his own life for the closure of others.
Great guy 🙏
Also, I'd be SO pissed if multiple people swam off and left me amongst that hell.
Thank you so much for everything you do ❤
Edd is awesome
So good!
