  • I hope I don't have any difficulties like her when I try out scuba diving on Monday.

  • I nevere drowned in water once when I was a little boy. I always stayed ashore to keep alive. When it was the year 2000, I fell off the climbing frame and I fractured my wrist. I was taken to the hospital for an x-ray. I had to wear a split to help keep my broken wrist steady.

  • God is merciful 

  • Also when you dive in places like a quarry where junk is common, carry not just a knife but wire cutters. My gear got snagged once in a mess of guitar-sting-like wire (fishing leader maybe?) near a wreck and my buddy snipped it away in a few minutes with a pair of linemans' pliers.

  • what's the next episode? the one at the end of this?

  • Tanya is 20 years older meaning she's 33. I suppose she has a family of her own. A husband and children that is.

  • " she must be very special, because she's been given a second chance" - wow, those words really touched me. God sure does have a plan for all of us who were given that second chance.

  • @jklfds85 at the time i read those words she was saying them LOL

  • why oh why did the a.i not release the teenagers b.c.d , better to lose kit than some ones life , as for removing your own weights as a rescuer , madness , diving is a great and enjoyable sport , but pre dive planning and buddy checks could have pre-vented this problem .

  • @MrRonniePudding In reference to your comment about not taking a proper hold on her BCD, I think that might have just been how they showed it in the reenactment, although you could be right and that is how she really held her. But I do agree with you on all of your other points, some poor planning and bad decisions during the dive led to this and it could have been easily avoided.

  • I still don't know what happened. Did she get caught on something at the bottom? I couldn't understand Shatner when he said, "her regulator was _______". Did he say clogged or caught? If her regulator was clogged why didn't she just ascend to the surface? I'm confused.

  • @YesYou123333 Shatner said "caught", and she didn't ascend (before she got stuck, that is) coz she was confused and hypothermic. She had been swimming before the other woman got there, and had already a lowered temperature. A clear sign of hypothermia is that the person gets confused. Might not have been all that easy to spot for the woman going with her, being that the water wasn't very clear, and that she felt fine herself.

  • there was a number of things that should have been different in that situation.. but what i dont understand even being in that position...if you drop both of your weight belts and you bcd is fully inflated..and your still not accending at only 30 ft, someone didnt do there buddy check very good, on weight... asides from that why did she not inflate the other persons bcd? no excuse there, that would have been the obviouse last despreat attempt to accend...controlled or not.

  • Insulation: Wetsuit was obviously inadequate.

    Why drop the weight belt, or even both weight belts?? How were they over-weighted anyway?

    The trainer could have had issues coming up uncontrolled.

    Shouldn't the trainer/assistant instructor also be rescue-trained?

    Why did she let go of her? Hug her tight when sharing air.

    Where were the emergency oxygen and first-aiders?

  • @soccom8341576 She didnt "let go of her", she lost grip of her. But other than that, I agree with u. Let's just hope diver instructors nowadays are better educated, and be glad of the outcome in this case.

  • y didnt she drop the tank the first time se came up

  • if she was a experienced diver she would have known that you never drop your own wieghtbelt, and that you can control your accent with your BCD and always have control over all hoses and regulators before starting the accent,, and yes i do know that she was under a lot of stress but still you would as an AI be to do that

  • every thank about inflateing her bc lol

  • as long as ive been diveing ive seen very few divers git bent like that

  • Medical flights don't reach the altitude needed to cause the bends in most diving. They go up 1000 ft, but going up is not the same as going down since water exerts more pressure per foot than air does.

  • She went into hypothermic shock.

  • Body blood has 8 minutes of O2 in it. Your good if you start getting O2 back within 2 minutes. Pumping that 8 minutes of O2 around is what needs to be done first, that is why there is a new CPR model using compression only (for non-trained personnel). However, on the ascent issue, she said you could blow a lung - that only happens with conscious people - unconscious people can't hold their breath so it's not a problem the air would push out without her doing a thing.

  • after diving at 30 feet, they would've had to have been down for HOURS for the chamber to be necessary... hardly any nitrogen buildup after 30 minutes...

  • so scary!

  • Wow these people must have not been trained very well at that point you ditch your rig and breath of your partners and how stupid to air lift probably had an Air Embolism and then bends

  • What a sweet sweet grandfather :)

  • Couldn't they have just cut the line to the air tank that was weighing her down?

  • well i didnt hear why the lady could not get her to the top in the first place?

  • they didnt say but it showed her airline was stuck on sumthin

  • yeah, you really shouldn't ascend faster than your smallest air bubbles. They're both very lucky.

    Out of curiosity, what would going up in a helicopter, after all of that, do? Wouldn't it just make it worse?

  • Not really alex, pressures change a lot faster underwater as you go deeper than they do as you go higher in air, and a helicopter doesn't really fly that high.

  • The main question/comment I have is that at the beginning, the older person here was an assistant instructor. If that is the case, she should have had CPR training, and should not have left it up to a relative, especially an older person like that.

  • oh no!!

  • gas to say Call 911 Im sure the man felt weird to say call 911

  • she's 13 and doesn't know about hypothermia

  • ok..I'm the rescuer & just found out this was on You Tube. Read the comments and some of you are right, things did go wrong & actions could have been executed better.But I will say that without the training I had, & without the quick action of others she might not have made it. Diving is a great sport, be educated, be trained, be aware, be a good buddy,respect the water, and you'll have great diving expereinces. Best of luck to all that enter the water.

  • i don't believe you.

  • @sshrkb8 I'm not criticizing your actions at all, because I know nothing about diving so I don't know what's right or wrong. I just have a question. Why did you need to go to the top and leave her at the bottom? Was it just so you could tell people to call 911 or was there another reason?

  • yeah...and then she was a kind of dead thingy.

  • omg one of the dudes didnt make it.thats very sad

  • this changed my mind a little bit about going scuba diving for my first time

  • Every sport has its dangers. Just be sure to listen to your divemaster when he instructs you on the dive site(even if you have been there before)double-check your equipment BEFORE your dive, and check your air constantly while diving.Relax and everything will go smoothly :)

    Good Luck!

    (PS diving is a wonderful experience, don't miss it just because of this!)

  • well put.

    :o)

    diving is too fun not to try.

  • don't be afraid....know your limits,

    it's life changing...they were in a quarry,

    and they never been diving in a quarry before.

    my first dives were all in quarries in MN...

    talk about fuggin cold!! training is

    available. it's safe. the lady she was diving with was irresponsible.she should have got

    the girls bcd inflated a bit,and wrap her legs

    around her like a vice, as to take her with

    to the surface...there were MANY ERRORS.

    so don't worry.just educate yourself,start in a pool...go slow. :o)

  • you know this is what happens if you dont check your gears perfectly. they will just have a failure

  • of course it always has to end up in a nice sappy ending

  • The scenes at 0:54, 0:56, 0:59, and 1:01 are used in the intro. The scenes from 0:54 to 1:01 are used in the intro. When this first aired Sam Haskell's younger daughter was in second grade. When did this Rescue 911 episode first air?

  • also 1:03, 1:04, 1:06 is in the intro.

  • also 1:01-02 is in intro of the newer "Tonight on rescue 9-1-1- these true stories of danger and triumph" intro.

  • uh...

  • i dont even understand what happened? did she just drop her tank or get caught on something?

  • I think she got caught on the wire thingy. And he tank slipped out of the back thingy.

  • Im suprised that the woman diveing with Tanya didn't get the bends by dropping her weight belt anf floating to the surface like she did your supposed to come up slowly and rest every five feet not rush right up

  • 1) It is highly individual.

    2) You need to build up sufficient tissue saturation. They weren't deep enough for sufficiently long period of time.

    3) You certainly don't have to rest every five feet. You shouldn't exceed 9m/min ascend rate and in no-decompression dives there is a recommended/mandatory safety stop at 5m for 3 min.

  • Hmm, this comment was supposed to react at TheAbyss24 from 9 months ago. What is it doing here??? Never mind, TheAbyss24 was wandering why the "rescue" didn't get bend after dropping her weights...

  • as a future dive intructor this taught me ALOT!!!

  • I'll bet Tonya continued to dive after this incident, she probably just took more precautions. I saw this segment back when it fist aired and it was just as good then. How many votes does rescue 911 have for its dvd release?

  • Many.

  • Could you please be a little more specific?

  • No. xD

  • thanks for uploadin this so good work! =3

  • I didn't know that the Hyberbaric chamber was used for something other than carbon monoxide poisining

  • I think diving accidents are mainly what the hyperbaric chamber is used for.

  • Hyperbaric chambers are used for gas embolisms, gangrene, CO poisoning, etc...

  • at 01:07 the scene is used in the newer 911 intro

  • thanks for uploading part 2 !!
