Time for 2 more scenes from Flipper (the newer series)!
This episode has 2 really good peril scenes with a frogwoman that keeps getting in trouble underwater! 😉
I divided it into 2 videos as there was so much material.
–
Preview, Scene 1:
But someone gets….
….in trouble!

And here is the 1st video:
–
A really fine peril scene….and a rather unusual one!
She was lucky this time…. but she soon gets into trouble again.
Will she get out of it alive again?

Preview, Scene 2:
Flipper is trapped!
And so is she!
Entangled in the net!

And here is the 2nd video:
–
Well, as soon she was trying to free Flipper it was rather obvious what would happen 😉
Divers in movies have the tendency of losing their knives and getting entangled in the net, so they would need to be saved.
Here is seems quite strange that she couldn’t get out of the net as it clearly looks as she should be able to get out of it in some scenes.
But well, then we wouldn’t have the fine scene in the show 😉
Another standard trope was missing this time. Normally when a scuba diver in a movie or TV show gets trapped he/she normally has only a few % of air left… 😉
I like how they all work together here to free her and Flipper from the net.
And I also enjoy how many scenes with women in full-face scuba masks this show has to offer. 🙂
The scuba scenes were oddly edited together with some scenes at the airport, so I edited that stuff out of the video as it was most annoying during the scuba scene.
(*EDIT* After over this year it was now taken down on Youtube…. had to post it elsewhere)

This was the only female scuba scene in the movie.
Ok, as much as I love to see some frogwomen in peril, there is SO much going wrong in this scene!
Ok, it can happen that you dive against some rocks as she does but the way she does it, it shouldn’t damage the valve(?) like that from the angle she hits the rocks.
Also, there are bubbles coming from nearly every direction :lol:. How is that supposed to happen? Ok, the valve is (seemingly) broken but it looks like she is leaking air in quite a lot of different places! Most bizarre!
Ok, let’s say this happens to you as a diver. You could continue to breathe as long as the tank isn’t empty and ascend slowly. If you are then out of air you could make an emergency ascend. Or better, just wait for your buddy to reach you in the first place. That situation shouldn’t be dangerous at all with the buddy close by. But what does she do? She doesn’t use any of her 2 regulators, she doesn’t ascend, she doesn’t swim towards her buddy. She seemingly spits out her regulator and then calmly is waiting to drown!?! Surely she is surprised of how quickly she loses her air reserves, but her reaction doesn’t make any sense at all.
This is SO odd, who thinks of such a scene? Pretty sure no one involved with the script had any knowledge of scuba diving. Or the writer was just going to create a dangerous situation for he could be able to rescue her, which is later in the movie an important plot point…..no matter how crazy it is.
However, as much there is to criticize, I do like the scene. Certainly a nice, odd addition to the collection.
And in general, it’s never wrong to have a scene where oxygen is escaping like that. The audio alone is…… 😉
–
Odd little detail:
They are using scuba gear from Mares. Whenever the whole lettering is visible it gets blurred, so you can’t really see it very well.
Although you know in any case that “Mares” is lettered there.
Especially in other scenes, it’s most obvious that they tried to hide the fact that this is Mares equipment (very unsuccessful though! 😆 )
Why did they do that?
My only explanation is that Mares was perhaps ashamed of being involved in this movie?
Perhaps they thought it would be bad publicity…..
–
In another 2 weeks, the next movie is shown and then I can make a longer cut with improved picture quality of this one:
This post is long overdue! I was pretty sure that I posted about the movie as soon it hit the theaters back then, but not here on the blog.
This movie has one really GREAT scuba peril scene and I made two videos to incl. the whole scene without making a too long video.
Nonetheless, it was blocked on Youtube but in this case “only” in France and some french overseas islands/regions. So 99% should be able to see it.
This movie has gigantic Megalodon sharks and obviously, you shouldn’t take it as a “realistic” movie. You should just have fun watching it.
I am pretty sure there isn’t a single really realistic shark movie anyhow…so…no need to care about the realism in it 😉
We have a yacht full of folks who wanna catch a living Megalodon.
Of course, it’s not as easy as they thought…..
Preview, part 1:
Getting ready….
….to dive!
Somewhere in the darkness around her the MEG is ready to attack…..

And here is the video:

Preview, part 2:
She is loosing oxygen!
Can she be….
….rescued in time?

And here is the video:

[Watch the videos before you continue!]
[Watch the videos before you continue!]
That was quite a ride for her….
Not exactly a nice thought of being stuck in the mouth of that MEG!
Her wetsuit is quite sexy for a modern suit and it’s nice that she doesn’t have a BCD.
Bingbing Li does a good job in the movie and here in this scuba scene!
I love the tension as she is alone in that cage, she knows the shark is somewhere, and we can clearly hear her exhaling through the scuba mask.
And the air loss peril scene is just great! I am not 100% sure if it is realistic, as I think that the actual incoming air gets only in the “closed” area around the mouth (unless you wanna clear the whole mask underwater). Also, her air is depleting too fast in my opinion when we see the percentages going down rapidly.
But anyhow, I love the sound of the exiting air and her reaction to it. The sentence: “My mask is broken, I’m losing air!”….pure gold. 😉
I think it was a wise choice to leave the mask on even as her oxygen was gone. With the mask on she couldn’t inhale water, she was “just” passing out.
After a really long time of waiting for this movie, I was finally able to see it last Thursday.
I could have seen it already but I wanted a full HD picture and a language I can actually understand.
The german blu-ray has the original language on it (Swedish) and a german language option of course. You can switch on german subtitles as well.
I watched the movie in german once and watched the underwater scenes again a day later with original Swedish audio and German subtitles.
The movie has a runtime of 82 minutes. At least 40(!) minutes of that is placed underwater! You won’t find many movies that can offer that….especially with female divers.
And it’s pretty unique because there are actually no sharks or other creatures in it like in the horror flicks (examples: “47 meters down” and “47 meters down – Uncaged”).
It’s a survival movie. Two sisters fight to survive a really bad situation underwater.
Ida (Moa Gammel)
Tuva (Madeleine Martin)
Also, after 9 minutes in….you won’t find a single man in the whole rest of the movie! As far I can remember that happens only in one other movie I have in my movie collection: “The Descent”, where 6 women explore a cave system and encounter some monsters there. I know quite a lot of movies with no women in them (mostly war movies) but the other way around is a rare thing.
The fact that there are over 40 minutes of underwater scenes in the movie is awesome but turns out to be kind of problematic for this post. I won’t show all of them of course. But which scenes should I present here?
Also I don’t wanna show scenes with major spoilers to the story here.
Today in this post I wanna present two scenes to motivate you to buy and watch this movie. More on that….later.
For now, let’s start with….
Scene 1!
Preview:
Checking the ship’s propellers…
…now the bow trusters…
Wanna guess what happens next? 😉

And here is the video:
–
A nice peril scene for starters! Even it was pretty predictable….and hard to understand what the idiots on the bridge were doing as it was known that she was working down there.
A good idea of her to get rid of her tank to jam the propeller, as it was pretty much her only option besides waiting for those idiots to turn it off. But then it might have been too late….
–
Scene 2
Tuva, the younger sister is trapped behind a rock at 32 meters depth! Her oxygen is gone and Ida hastily returns to her with a full tank…
Preview:
Her tank is totally empty….Tuva needs air quickly!!
Ida…
…has switched back to her full face dive mask

And here is the video:
–
Great scenes! It’s no secret that I really like scuba peril scenes. And seeing both of them here in desperate need of air….is quite …well….sexy 😉
Also, the swapping with their full-face dive masks and their “normal” scuba masks is also interesting! I normally like full-face dive masks, but I must say this Ocean Reef mask with the fully transparent faceplate isn’t so attractive in comparison to other masks like the Interspiro mask that Tania Raymonde is using in Deep Blue Sea 3.
–
Now back to the movie in general.
It has some flaws, no doubt. The scene above with Ida looking for that oxygen tank for example.
She is without air for around 130 seconds! She is not a professional diver like her little sister and isn’t a really good athlete or in great shape. I hardly doubt that she could hold her breath that long while being in such a stressful situation. Her sister is trapped, she is without air, searching for that oxygen tank in the darkness. She gets lost for a while and yet is pretty calm as she finally reaches Tuva again…
I would have shortened that scene. Let her dive without air for 60 seconds and then swim back on the brick of total panic. That would be more dramatic and more realistic in that case. Yes, there are apnoe divers that can go on much longer without air….but Ida isn’t one, she is highly stressed and not in a condition to stay without air that long.
–
Another thing is that tank she is searching for. I checked the scenes several times and can’t explain where it is coming from. It appeared out of nowhere! Where did Ida get that from?
Spoiler title
They start with their tanks on the dive. 2 tanks are lost due to the rock slide. 2 tanks are in the car. That leaves 4 usable tanks. Both swap their tanks once and that tank is suddenly there as well. Really odd…..
–
Also, a big rock falls on Tuva. She is trapped under it but isn’t hurt at all!? I guess that is ….possible…but damn, a “little” hard to buy. But in the end, it has to be like that so that the story could develop like it does.
There are one or two other aspects but I don’t wanna sound too negative.
All in all it is a really good, thrilling movie! The desperate atmosphere is suspenseful and I tried to come up with solutions myself as Ida is trying to free her sister from down below! And as I said, more than 40 minutes of underwater scenes with women in one movie is pretty unique, especially without CGI sharks or other monsters.
Both actresses did a really good job and did most of the underwater scenes themselves after they both learned to scuba dive for the movie as I heard from an interview with the director (on the Blu-ray).
Ok, the drysuits aren’t exactly attractive, but well it’s Norway and not the Caribbean. Also, the darkness below at over 30 meters adds to the grim survival-fight-atmosphere. It wouldn’t work that well in a bright, beautiful setting like in the Bahamas for example.
Folks, I can only recommend this movie to you! This movie belongs in every collection of someone who likes survival movies OR scuba movies OR movies with female divers OR movies with scuba peril scenes.
So folks, ORDER this movie. BUY this movie!
Such movies must be supported, so other producers would make movies with scuba scenes too!
Scuba scenes are expensive, many producers are afraid of doing them.
This year there were two new movies with great scuba scenes…I hope that is a new trend!
–
The German Blu-ray has some extras:
Trailer (pretty useless as you see that before you watch the movie)
an automated picture “show” with music (end credits song)
an interview with the director (16 minutes, interesting!)
I had hoped for a “Behind the scenes” feature as well…but no luck.
Oddly enough I am sure I saw such a video floating around the web some months ago. It was rather short but interesting and showed the filming in a water tank.
Part 4 of my series of posts on Vicky Devika videos. One last one to come next week.
In this series, I wanna present some videos from Vicky Devika who has made a lot of videos in sexy rubber outfits.
So, why is this interesting for this blog? Well, the answer is quite simple: She has done several scuba videos while being in rubber catsuits!
In these videos, some great fantasies of mine come to life, and I am sure that many of you will love these videos as well!
Today I wanna present the video “Rubber Scuba with Full Face Mask”.
Official description:
After having so much fun in my top selling clip “Kinky Scuba in Rubber” I wanted to try a Cressi full face scuba mask, so I went and obtained one! This is my first time diving with a full face, even though I’ve been diving with a standard regulator for over a decade.
It only takes me a few minutes to get used to the full face and how it tends to make my reg free flow in certain positions. Nothing I can’t handle 😉 After getting comfortable I unzip my sexy rubber suit and start fondling with my pussy as I relax and sink into underwater bliss.

Here are some images from the video:

And a preview snippet:

Above or below the water surface….a stunning sight!
The famous mask conceals her face completely, only her eyes are visible, providing a very mysterious appearance yet again! 🙂
Easy to imagine how much she enjoys being underwater in this outfit….
And again the audio here is very important….I recommend turning up the volume and using headphones for the best experience.

Official description:
Vicky wakes up underwater with a scuba regulator in her mouth and her hands tied to a post. As she struggles to remember what happened to her and how she got there, she quickly starts to panic and drops the regulator. With no air to breathe, she tries to reach for the regulator before it’s too late…

Wow, that’s a fine peril scenario! Waking up underwater, tied up, with a scuba tank providing air…for the moment.
She is really in trouble! And however tied her up like that, seemed to suit her up in a special way 😉
If he didn’t capture her dressed like that….
The video is rather short in comparison to her other videos, but I like the fact that the scenario wasn’t dragged out for too long to the point where it would get boring or unrealistic.
I would like to talk about the ending, but I won’t spoil it here for you.
Will she escape this trap? You will find out if you buy the video 😉
