Hey folks, how about a nice scuba clip from a rare TV show?
Not so rare is the scenario:
A couple dives into a wreck, and surprise….soon they are stuck….and of course already nearly out of air 😉 ….of course, he can free himself, but she is trapped.
Can she be rescued?
Preview:
There….she is….
…stuck….
…and nearly out of air!
Trapped!

Well, this scene offers nearly all cliches….but still, it’s a good scene.
Very practical that all the salvage gear was still lying around.
Of course, the picture quality is pretty bad since it is a pretty unknown TV show from the early ’80s.
She handles herself pretty good actually, no panic.
What is pretty odd….how are they speaking with each other? I don’t see any device for that….. 😆
I had that one my “to put on the blog”-list for ages, time that it finally appears here. I guess many know it already, but for those who don’t know it…. you will see a very intense scuba peril scene.
Two divers (one female, one male) exploring an underwater cave system. This is a dangerous task and they soon will realize that in a really bad way.
Preview:
Her air hose is damaged! And the tear gets bigger…
…until her air hose rips!
She panics during buddy breathing…..

And here is the video (a longer version can be found below):

Watch the video before you continue!
Wow! That scene is really evil. The way she struggles to survive then panics and wants to have that scuba mask for herself, clawing on it…
…and then tries to get it back…while she weakens with every second she is out of air. Intense!
In most aspects this drowning is very realistic, the way she swallows water after she runs out of air….you won’t see a scene like that often (in a “normal” movie or TV series).
She has doomed herself after damaging her precious air hose in a tunnel before.
Some aspects of this scene are weird to me:
—> 1) Why are there no bubbles as she damages the air hose in the tunnel? She should realize the damage herself right away. Even it started with “only” a tear in the air hose…you should be able to see that. Or he should be able to realize that much earlier….
—> 2) Ok, buddy breathing with that equipment costs a lot of oxygen. Shouldn’t they try to move in a direction together? Anywhere to safety? Buddy breathing and staying on the same point….is completely useless since no help will come to them in time. They would run out of air and would both die.
—> 3) They dive around in caves without any backup systems? Ok, they had to leave the bailout tanks, because of a very narrow tunnel. But hey, shouldn’t there be a second regulator and other safety precautions? Seems pretty…. MAD ….diving in caves like that….in my opinion.
But ok, how many new scuba scenes like this show up? Well, very few in the last 20 years. And it’s my first scene where a woman with a rebreather drowns…UNIQUE!
And the struggling and drowning are done very well!
First, thanks again to V for mentioning this movie. I watched the whole thing and it was very clear to me that it belongs on this blog, even there is no frogwoman in it. But don’t worry….I’m pretty sure that most folks might like these scenes for different reasons 😉
Some words about the story for a better understanding of the video. We have a slightly….mad… freediver who loves to wear his rubber suit and strangle women in his free time. And we have a female detective (Yvonne Catterfeld again) that hunts him.
So I included every scene with the mad killer in his rubber suit and the key scene where both met. And in that scene, he uses his …freediving skills… to his advantage…. 😉
Preview:
There he is…the maniac in his rubbersuit!
His favorite place…
But she wants to catch him!
Bad idea…that close to the edge…
The rubberman got her…
….that does look bad for her…

Well, that is a special… nutjob! But I really like his diving suit…it is very sexy.
And it’s an interesting/unusual idea to let him run around in that suit when the crazy killer in him takes over…
And I really like that scene in the pool. A very nice drowning peril scene.
Interesting that they wouldn’t show his front side at any time (UW)….I am pretty sure I know the reason… 🙂
Perhaps the actor or stunt double got a little excited …being in such a suit..while pulling on Yvonne Catterfeld.
–
And I imagine a gender swap on that scene. A sexy femalefreediver…in that outfit….pulling a man underwater. OH MAN!!!!
We need more crazy female serial killers with a fetish for sexy diving suits…. 🙂
What do you think about that UW scene? And on the other scenes?

P.S.: Sorry, but still no news from youtube regarding my channel. I know many of you want to see the promised clips from S.O.S. Barracuda and Eye of the Storm.
And I really DON’T like to keep you waiting…I would rather post them yesterday…but I waited some weeks now for youtube to get it done…and I won’t let that be for nothing.
It really annoys me that it takes that long…as much as it annoys me to keep you waiting.
While I am still waiting for youtube…. 🙄 (sorry, for the delay)…. another video for you folks:

For today I combined 3 scenes from german actress Yvonne Catterfeld into a single clip.
In the first one, we see her in a pretty normal wetsuit. In the 2nd we see her in a swimsuit fighting against evil showers…..and in the 3rd one, she is actually diving in a lake to find a sunken car.

Yeah, some nice scenes. Not often do we see a woman in three different “aqua”-outfits in one movie… and she looks good in all three of them 😉
Of course, I would have preferred the bad guy (who cut her reserve tanks loose) to actually dive down to her…and fight against her. But well… no luck.
