We were 17 divers doing a ship wreck night diving (3 Navy Barges) in St Thomas, USVI. One of the divers saw this 3-4 foot wide Stingray very well camouflaged under the sand, right next to the ship.
I was behind the stingray video taping. One of the divers was in front of the stingray trying to make it swim out of the sand. Since the Stingray had another divers to it's left side, and the ship to the right side, I thought that it would swim to my direction (away from the diver that was disturbing it) so I decided to go up 3-4 feet to make enough space below so that the stingray could go away. What I didn't know is that it decided to swim right to where I was. In this video you can see how close we were. I could literarily touch it.
