I will be diving here to finish my open water course and i have to ask what is it like there because i have to wait a month and i just want to know about it the visibility looks really low.

[DaGamer500]

@DaGamer500 well it usually is it looks quite clear in the vid

[galixieman63half12]

I beleive this is part of the artificial reef program....but its still sad to see a plane used in this manner, it should have been given to someone who would have restored it.... or at least sold for the scrap metals.

[mymorgan67]

nice video, but that your partner...how many dive's have behind? looks like its stressed:S

[DanielLesden]

what the song please? :)

[1stMrSceptical]

Better than Stoney Cove?

[kjp543]

@1stMrSceptical Capernwray is usually clearer than Stoney and they have a lot to see as well as the plane and all the great trout. So for shallower dives and clear water I'd say Capernwray was better, Stoney however wins over if you need to do some deeper diving (down to 37m) as Capernwray is only around 20m.

[1stMrSceptical]

@kjp543 Hi I havn't dived Stony in Years, just to show how long ago: There were no facilities : no staging, no showers, just a deep hole, if you were the first in great then down hill from there on in.. The deepest I registered was 110 feet about 34 mts according to my log book. It was absolutely freezing, there was just a thin layer of sheet ice I wore two wet suits one 3mm and a 5mm over the top. I was a keen diver in those days. Another place we use to dive was Nazing Pit Essex,

@1:07 the fish scared me.



[TheFinalParadigm]

@germanshepherdjuliet A Rainbow Trout scared you? Dang, I am surprised the world hasn't given you a major heart attack by now. Rainbow trout are the most harmless fish on the planet.... and oh-so-tasty too.

[germanshepherdjuliet]

@TheFinalParadigm HAHA. xD Noo..:P What I ment was it came to the camrea to fast and scared mee :P.

[TheFinalParadigm]

@germanshepherdjuliet Oh ok, I can understand that :)

[germanshepherdjuliet]

@TheFinalParadigm haha. :PPP Subbed ya xD

[MRBoenz]

where is that lake ? looks pretty nice

[kjp543]

@MRBoenz Thanks for the comment, the lake is a dive centre in the Lake District in the UK. Near Carnforth in Lancashire. They have a website dive-site.co.uk

[Icaller1915]

Why a sunken boat is near the airplane?

[kjp543]

@Icaller1915 Thanks for the comment, the lake is a diving center and they have put a number of attractions into the lake for divers to explore. The plane is one of many attractions, they have cars vans, boats helicopters and even a submarine! Have a look at dive-site.co.uk

[Icaller1915]

@kjp543 Oh no problem. So you went diving and you found those sunken vehicles? Is that true? I saw a sunken boat after I saw the airplane.

[Ojokernegro]

Talk about having a hip life. Cool stuff man :)

[NezbittheGreyKitten]

wow that's incredible!!! so all of the dials or gauges were removed.. interesting. i got my PADI in the Red Sea last year... it was a dream... visibility like it is on land. just a complete dream.

[TheMaresMan]

Great Video, I have just purchased a dry suit and am hoping to visit Capernwray with Diveworld (Sheffield) soon. I am looking forward to it even more now.

Dive Safe! & Keep on filming.

[woodsie180]

beautifully filmed :) what camera are you using? :)

[lewisoffroad]

what camera are you using?

[sysons1]

Great Video, I've just got back from Capernwray, and putting my own video together but this is really excellent.

[wackjonny]

Dived Capernwray many times but must say this has got to be one of the best Videos I ever ever seen regarding the young girl enjoying herself.

She reminds me so much of my daughter in her posture,energy sometimes erratic yet comfortable swimming ability's meant in a positive way.

Very well put together video edit,music seems to work well too.

Superb and very well done.

Dive safe!

[kjp543]

@wackjonny Thanks for your great feedback. Much appeciated. Beth (my daughter) has now progressed to PADI Rescue Diver and still enjoys her diving, nice to look back on this and see the smile on her face!

[pelicaravansary]

damn,, the plane was on landing gear....

[VilhenaHD]

Great Great footage! It's got to be awsome to dive on a sunk airplane

[kjp543]

Thanks for the comments on the video and Yes it is a scrapped plane, it was sunk as an attraction in an inland diving site in the UK. The plane cost over £25,000 to buy and prepare so they avoided making it too expensive by taking the major value items out (in any event I suspect they would get stolen anyway). Great fun to dive on nontheless!

[davidburton95]

@kjp543 yeah its really good to dive in :) think it would be a little difficult with all the seats in though :)

[ls176dr]

@kjp543 I just dived the plane on Saturday when I was doing my dry suit specialty. Loved it. Your footage is so clear. Brilliant.

[kjp543]

@ls176dr Thanks for the feedback, you will be in for a treat now you have passed your drysuit specialty you can dive all over the UK. There is lots to see, from South Coast Wrecks to stunning scenic dives in Scotland. Enjoy! I have uploaded a few videos of some of the great UK dives - Isle of Man, Devon and Scotland so far my favorites.

[ls176dr]

@kjp543 Thanks again. My dive buddy and I will check them out.

[TheSemperfiusmc]

PLANE WAS OBVIOUSLY SCRAPPED ALL GUAGES ARE GONE IN COCKPIT

[kss341]

cool video, makes me want to go diving

[kjp543]

@kss341 - thanks for the comment on my video. You should give scuba a go, it is great fun.. Even in a chilly lake! I am in the Red Sea at the moment, quite different! really top notch diving. The video will be on YouTube Soon. Kevin
