    I believe that ship wrecks are the best part of diving. Thank you Jonathan I'm learning so much from your films.

    This is awesome! I've always thought that shipwrecks were detrimental to the sea, the same way a piece of waste laying there would be to the environnement. Thank you for showing me how they can actually help the ocean. :)

      Sinking ships to become artificial reefs is without a doubt one of the best ways to give a spent resource back to mother nature. They promote a healthy environment for ocean life to thrive in and grow. Give it a couple hundred years and these ships will collapse on themselves and disintegrate, effectively enriching the earth with material that we (humanity) had taken from it. Its so awesome that governments across the world are realizing this and doing it more often. :)

      It's also nice to see if you're a seafarer.
      The proper place for an old vessel is the bottom of the sea, not a scrapyard.

    Just brilliant how these artificial reefs are serving to the marine ecosystem, as they provide perfect habitat for hole spectrum of marine wildlife, just love to learn as much as I can about them.

    This means we could utilise thousands of cars that we scrap every year for the benefit of Marine life.

    • @sth.777
      @sth.777 5 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      It would likely be cost prohibitive to prepare them for sinking; fluids, electricals, etc. would need to be stripped.

    • @paulstanding7267
      @paulstanding7267 5 ปีที่แล้ว +30

      Cars would not make good reefs as the steel is to thin would rust away and then disintegrate all life would just disappear as nothing left for marine life to hold on to.

    1. The Titanic
    2. Leatherback turtles
    3. Tarpon
    4. Mola Mola
    5. Diving at Night
    7. Squids
    8. Orca Whales
    9.Lions mane Jellyfish
    10. Pollution
    :)

    • @BlueWorldTV
      @BlueWorldTV  9 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Owen McFlowen Hey Owen, those are some great ideas. We have actually been working on Mola mola, Leatherbacks, Squids and Tarpon for a few years, but have not gathered enough footage yet. As for the Titanic....we're going to need a bigger budget! LOL!! We are definitely trying to find a place where we can do a decent Orca segment. They are complicated to film. Diving at Night is such a great idea. It never occurred to me to do a segment about that. Thanks for the idea. You get all the credit.

    • @PortCarsScene
      @PortCarsScene 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Your welcome about the night diving segment idea, there is a lot of interesting stuff that goes on at night, especially when I was in Croatia snorkelling at 9 o'clock and a reef shark came swimming by! 👌

    Scuba Diving Is so cool!
    But I never have understood why Scuba Divers Scuba Dive at night time.
    Isnt it creepy and too dark too see? Even with a flashlight isnt your vision limited to what the rays of the flashlight touch, Or does the moon shine in through the water?
    Nice Videos Jonathan!

    • @BlueWorldTV
      @BlueWorldTV  9 ปีที่แล้ว +17

      Insany 14 A bight moon in clear water yields a surprising amount of light, but most of the time you are limited to your flashlight beam. It actually sounds a lot spookier than it is. Diving at night allows you to see animals that are only out at night.

      Actually that is the Vandenberg. They used it for the movie "Virus" in 1999 and painted it up like a Russian ship.

      Oh! No reason to start a conspiracy theory then. :P
      Thanks for the trivia! :)

    How much bottom time do you get at that depth? Also, how big is your tank and to what pressure is it filled.

    • @BlueWorldTV

      Which depth? Tanks are filled to about 3,000 PSI

      At about 100 feet. I just so happen to live in Florida and would like to visit some of those wrecks.

    14:22 TIL from NOAA that orange cup corals are an invasive species in the Florida Keys. 😐

      Yes, it was first sighted in the Caribbean in 1943 in Puerto Rico, probably came attached to ship hulls from its native Indo-Pacific. The good news is that it doesn't seem to have disrupted the ecosystem in the Caribbean in the way that other invasives have, like Lionfish.

    It's about time you make a new video 😸

    Does the extensive coverage of marine life like corals extend the lifespan of the ship itself? I imagine the creatures living on the hull would help prevent corrosion and keep the structure strong and sturdy.
    Would the corals, over time, end up creating something like a brand new reef extending outwards from the ship as they grew and compounded upon each other?

      The metal rusts, but the coral keeps building. Eventually though the metal will collapse under the weight. But it takes well over 50 years for that process to start.

      Neat, thanks for the quick reply. Well over 50 years is a hell of a long time.
