Scuba Peril

A guy on a boat gets attacked by two frogmen in rubber [Imagine if…][Blog exclusive]

by

Ok, let’s start with the bad news:

You won’t see any women in the video of this post.

So, why do I make a post about it?

I think this scene is a great “template” for a scuba fight with sexy female divers!

Check out the video, I’m very sure you will find it interesting….

 

I was browsing through some old footage that I had recorded a long time ago and stumbled on this scene.

And I managed to make a video file in good quality for you folks and myself.

And here is the video:

–

Well, now imagine that these divers would wear the same outfits…but… would actually be sexy frogWOmen!

They try to drown him and he fights back, struggling with the sexy rubberwomen underwater… 😉

Or imagine Mannix to be a female detective… whatever you like best.

The scuba gear is near perfection for me here. The black rubber wetsuit in combination with hoods and double hose regulators were always my favorite since …a certain movie 😉

And it would be so awesome to have sexy, evil frogwomen in such a scuba fight!

–

Ok, back to the scene:

Well, these two really screw up big time! They are two against one. They have a complete set of scuba gear, he has nothing at all, but manages to win the fight.

I guess they wanted to make it look like he drowned, otherwise they could have used their knives…. or they underestimated him.

However, it’s not so easy to pull down a buoyant body down, even they are two.

But they fail to control him so he can temporarily “throw” one frogman out of the fight and is able to fight against one.

I love how he rips off the complete hose from the first stage. Hard to say how realistic that is…. but I think it is possible…perhaps.

And he actually rips it off the intake port, which is on the right side of the tank/first stage. Air is streaming out of it….

Then they actually cheat as suddenly the hose is ripped off from the left side of the tank/first stage. Obviously, the air is free-flowing and the diver is losing air, but with this trick, he still can breathe, so the stunt diver is quite safe.

Seemingly the diver in the scene then immediately drowns, which is quite odd as he isn’t out of air for long and Mannix was underwater longer without air. He is never seen again afterward.

The second diver then finally grabs his knife to kill Mannix, but well… he loses the struggle with Mannix and also his knife to him.

–

All in all, I really like this scene as it’s a great template if you have a little fantasy…. 😉

 

P.S.: The same two divers actually kidnap a woman from a boat and force a scuba tank on her earlier in the episode!

But….tragically…. that story gets only told….not shown on the screen! DAMN IT!

The frogwoman, a kangaroo and sharks!

by

Time to make a 2nd post with scenes from a 60s TV show with an animal as the lead “actor”.

Now, not that one with the dolphin, the one with the kangaroo.

In this one world-famous diver, Valerie Taylor can be seen in one out of only 3 acting roles (movie/TV shows).

And here is the video:

–

Initially, I wanted to cut down the video as it is now half the length of the full episode.

But well, I wanted to include all her wetsuit scenes so I decided to choose the first long cut as the video. And Youtube seemingly doesn’t mind in this case.

Certainly some nice and interesting scenes with Valerie Taylor in a wetsuit for half an episode. 🙂

Well, I would have preferred a black rubber wetsuit, but no luck.

From today’s point of view, it is certainly quite ironic that Valerie Taylor who made many documentaries about sharks and was very unhappy in her involvement in the making of “Jaws” swims away in fear from a harmless shark….but well, times were different and most people were very afraid of any shark.

The peril element here is a nice addition if that means she is unconscious for the rest of the episode…which is quite odd. I mean why didn’t they show her awake at the end?

The young boy then saved her from drowning and then had some close scenes with Valerie Taylor in her tight, wet wetsuit on that boat…. I wouldn’t mind swapping with him 😉

Most likely he was too young back then to “appreciate” it.

IMDB says it was episode 18 of that season, other sources say it’s 19, but the title is certainly correct.

Crazy guy wanna drown 2 women! Incl. a fight with female scuba diver! — UPGRADE [incl. longer video + 2nd video]

by

I re-uploaded the video to this old post just some weeks ago:

https://frogwoman.org/mad-man-wanna-drown-2-women-with-a-female-scuba-diver

–

Shortly after I realized that there was a better video quality available (720×480) and I re-watched the movie yesterday.

So, I will make a BIG UPGRADE to the old post:

— better video quality and a longer cut of the scuba highlight of the movie

— a 2nd video just for the blog, not for my (public) Youtube channel

— a proper text for this interesting movie

 

Preview, main scene:

(click to enlarge)

Here is the video:

–

This movie is quite interesting and has unusual dark humor.

Ok, let’s start with some negative aspects before we come to the good ones.

The underwater scene is scripted quite odd in some places.

The female diver, who is not a cop, but works as a movie prop master with the other blonde guy…. is the one here who puts herself in danger to save lives.

She cuts one woman loose and then gets attacked by the villain.

Meanwhile, the cop is above her and doesn’t help her. Yeah, he gives his regulator to the freed woman but doesn’t attack the villain.

But the “good” divers more or less ignore the other woman (red blouse) and she drowns because of that. They could have saved her (most likely) if they would have worked together.

But well, the movie itself ignores her at that point completely as well as she isn’t shown 😆

Two more (odd) things I noticed:

Surprisingly they incl. an underwater upskirt shot here as the producer sinks down with her skirt and pantyhose …. #odd #rare

If you look closely at the face of the freed woman in 2:57, you can see the marks of a scuba mask. Well, she wasn’t wearing one in the movie… but seemingly in the preparation of this shot.

 

I really like how the frogwoman here dives down quickly and decisively to save these women.

She manages to cut one loose and also ties the bad guy to the weight. Good job!

But what does she do next? She let the bad guy take her out of the action by letting him flood her mask and rip her regulator out!

How does that happen? She has all the advantages she can have. She has a wetsuit, a scuba mask, a scuba tank, and a knife!

He has nothing, can’t see much without a mask…. but manages to overpower her.

But then both are failing…. in a way.

He should have secured that regulator to be able to breathe…or at least try to do that. Her regulator was his one chance to survive here.

Ok, she was (seemingly) surprised by her flooded mask and regulator.

But she should have been able to put the regulator back in and clear her mask as soon she was away from him.

Ok, maybe she doesn’t have much experience and was shocked….but why does she stay on the surface then?

I don’t get why she stays there and doesn’t try to save the other woman….

 

However, it’s a really fine peril scene nonetheless!

A very rare setting with that insane guy and his drowning fetish.

In my version, he would attack scuba divers underwater and there would be some nice long scuba fights in the movie 😉

 

You now think that he actually drowned there very calmly?

Spoiler title
Well, at the end of the movie it gets revealed that he is actually still alive! Don’t have the slightest clue how the hell he did that as good guys stayed there for quite a while.

 

—

But I wanna share another scene from the movie.

In this earlier scene, he does make his first attempt to drown the female lead….

Preview, scene 2 (earlier in the movie):

Here is the video:

–

Good to have some more short scenes with our frogwoman in this one!

It’s quite odd that the bad guy drops his victim right on top of three scuba divers…

I mean, their boat must be close by and he should see and hear all those bubbles that they make.

But ok, maybe he was so blind (and deaf) as he was occupied with her….

The poor female lead is quite shocked by what she sees underwater….understandably.

The oldest corpse looks a little too “fake” and seemingly he killed all the others in a very short amount of time as they still look very “fresh”.

I like the plan as they try to fool him with that crafted corpse to get him on camera (as he visits them daily), even though that plan doesn’t work out and he can escape.

There are some more diving snippets with the villain but without any female divers.

 

There is actually a sequel to this movie.

I watched it very long ago and am 99,9% sure there are no female scuba scenes in that one, but I will check that.

A vintage frogwoman with a fake scuba tank gets attacked by a male diver! [Blog exclusive]

by

Time to finally post about this classic scene!

In the past, this was blocked immediately by Youtube (back in the early days of the blog) so I more or less forgot to make a post about it.

Here is a long cut of this scene in good video quality.

Preview:

And here is the video:

Watch the video before you continue!

What I would give to have that scene in full colors…..

There are 4 seasons of this TV show. 3 of them were filmed in color. Sadly this is from the first season 🙁

However, I really love that scene despite some flaws!

Thankfully they had a female diver to play the role and didn’t use a male to play her action part as they often did in the 50s and 60s.

A really big minus point for me is how passive she is. But well, fits the time in which this was shot.

She basically does nothing. She doesn’t defend herself and she doesn’t attack him at any time! She did have quite some opportunities to attack him, but she is basically a Scubadoll in a rubber suit 😆

She just holds onto him while he is occupied with her tank harness, she could easily rip off his mask or rip out his regulator! Yes, she doesn’t have her scuba mask, but he is so close in front of her, that she should be able to see him well enough.

The fact that she doesn’t need her tank to breathe underwater is a minus point as well, but you can easily change that in your fantasy 😉

If I remember the backstory right she has the special ability to breathe underwater.

The bad guys are using her as a weapon to fight the submarine of the good guys. Her tank is actually an explosive device.

I love how the guy immediately goes for her mask to blind her (temporarily). He knows what he is doing.

It’s very rare to have an unmasked woman in such a scuba fight scene.

Her “unmasked” face looks quite sexy…

He has to get rid of her explosive “tank” and therefore he strips her of her scuba tank as well and thereby she also loses her regulator (that she needs in my fantasy).

The explosion hits her, and she is unconscious for the moment.

The naughty frogman takes ….advantage…. of that:

Damn, that stunt diver(?) really had a great time! I guess they had to repeat some of these scenes quite often 😆

I added the scene where she is unconscious and gets carried around in the submarine as that is quite sexy as well.

Again I played around with the simple tool to colorize one picture:

Yeah, not exactly a great result but at least better than the black and white version.

Pretty sure that is the Voit logo on his chest. Look like they used the same suits later on in Thunderball (different colors).

This episode actually aired earlier in the same year as Thunderball did (1965).

Charlies Angels – Female scuba diver gets attacked… [UPGRADE – Hall of Fame]

by

This was one of the earliest posts on this blog back in 2013:

https://frogwoman.org/charlies-angels-female-scuba-diver-gets-attacked

 

And today it’s time to make a proper post with a FULL HD UPGRADE and proper text!

This one is an absolute classic …in my opinion…. and I will tell you why, but let’s start with some pictures first.

Preview, Scene 1:

And here is the video:

(had problems with these scenes on Youtube in the past)

–

Watch the video before you continue!

So, you might guess why this one is a classic for me 😉

So, we have two beautiful women in nice vintage scuba gear! Ok, the BCD vests are kind of uncool…but at least they are only on the back.

The scuba fight is done pretty well, a nice struggle, she is occupied with controlling his knife hand as it’s the greatest threat to her.

They roll around nicely and finally, he manages to get his knife into position and slice her live-giving air hose!

It seems like they recorded the sound from her escaping air in a studio or so. Not 100% sure.

However, it sounds as sexy to me as it looks!

Lucky for her, he ….seemingly….. “just” wants to scare her off for the moment as he immediately swims away instead of holding her back at that depth.

Ok, hard to say in which depths they were… If they were deep enough he might have thought that she wouldn’t make it to the surface or wouldn’t survive an emergency ascend.

Also, the other Angel is there to rescue her by starting buddy breathing with her.

The sight of a sliced air hose spewing bubbles is quite something for me! 🙂

All in all, a very good scene that now finally gets into my Hall of Fame.

The end of the episode is also nice, as they look great with just their wetsuits on! Plus the nice Navy helicopter that reminds me of a certain movie with “some” scuba content 😉

–

But there is one more very interesting scuba scene in this episode!

This time three frogwomen are underwater and the bad guy is there again.

Time for a rematch!

A good scene, but it seems a little….”lackluster” in the end.

One of them is charging him like a bull, and that without a scuba knife! (Why do the Angels haven’t got any knives?)

A very brave attack!

But then the two others join and the action gets very, very tame. They move slowly and a little “random”.

That scene could have used a better directing/script. It seems like they don’t fully know what to do here and there…..

The other two should have had a little more energy.

In my version, the frogwoman in yellow would fight with him.

The others would attack from behind and one would rip off his scuba mask and one would yank out his regulator.

But ok, in this version they have to escape the blast radius and he is staying back to get blown up 😉

I will watch the full episode today to get the full backstory behind it.

This scene is special as 3 frogwomen are fighting against one frogman, even though it’s a short and tame struggle. Quite unique nonetheless…I would say.

The Frogwoman and the shark [UPGRADE]

by

And another classic scene that deserves to get a decent UPGRADE!

This was the old post:

https://frogwoman.org/the-frogwoman-and-the-shark

 

Today I wanna post a full HD video with proper text for this sexy scene!

Preview:

(click to enlarge)

–

And here is the video:

–

As you can see I made some cuts in the last part of the video. Well, I wanted to keep the length of the video to a certain size and besides that, she isn’t in these scenes that I cut out.

I recommend watching the whole movie if you like movies like Jaws. This one is pretty good and it has one GREAT feature for me: A fantastic score by grandmaster Ennio Morricone which really makes this movie stand out in comparison to others of this genre (+good actors).

Ok, back to this scene.

Her whole scuba gear is pretty close to perfection to me! This vintage wetsuit just looks awesome 🙂

Ok, I would prefer a vintage double hose regulator for her, but that classic single hose regulator is very nice as well.

From today’s point of view, it looks rather….odd, that she (who is a marine biologist) is hiding between the rocks as a shark approaches. But ok, a great white shark does look menacing, even he is not nearly as dangerous in reality as in the movies. But back in the old days nearly everyone thought that all sharks would be very dangerous, especially after Jaws.

However, it’s a thrilling scene to see her squeeze herself between these rocks.

It’s a fun scene later on as well, as the rough captain yells at the diver (he thought it was a man) and she then pulls back her hood to reveal her long hair.

Yeah, that sight of her in that wetsuit made him speechless for a moment.

Who could blame him? 😉

Charlotte Rampling did look pretty good back then. She was around 30 as the movie was shot, and that wetsuit is just very sexy.

 

In my version, she would hide from the shark as well but would damage her air hose as she would leave the rocks. Even that would be hard to do in a realistic fashion. Perhaps it got stuck there 😉

So, with the shark close by and her losing a lot of air…. you would have a little more thrill! 😉

Black Widow – Female diver runs out of air! – [Hall of Fame – UPGRADE]

by

(….not the movie with Scarlett Johansson 😉 )

Time to make another UPGRADE post with one of the best scuba peril scenes!

The old one had an SD video with about 4 minutes and basically no text.

Now I wanna present you with an HD video with over 7 minutes and a proper text alongside it!

If you don’t know these scenes already…I do envy you!

Let’s start with some preview pictures:

Damn, I love that scene! So thrilling, so sexy!

Actress Theresa Russell, here “Catharine, the villainess”, looks gorgeous. Those legs in that high-cut wetsuit top…. oh boy….

Even though, the damn BCD vests are annoying and are obscuring the view.

Debra Winger, here “Alexandra” does a great job here as well.

I love the moment where she realizes that she doesn’t get any air anymore (or very little) and desperately sucks on her regulator.

She checks her air supply, and the pressure gauge shows that she should have air left.

She should now check immediately for her buddy and then make an emergency ascend when she doesn’t see her.

She just grabs onto her mouthpiece and slowly ascends, but ok, she has no scuba experience… no wonder she behaves like that.

The struggle between the two is cut sometimes a little odd, but it’s very intense and very sexy for me.

I’m still not 100% sure if Alexandra pulls out her own regulator or if Catharine is yanking it out of Alexandra’s mouth.

Pretty sure it’s the latter, as we can see Catharine’s hand reaching for it, before the cut.

The moment as Alexandra is without her regulator and both are staring at each other…..is awesome! Her villainous eyes starring at her victim….

Catharine hesitates for a long moment before she finally gives her her regulator….. very interesting 😉

 

Some backstory for those who don’t know the movie (you should watch it):

Minor spoilers ahead!

Catharine has the habit of marrying rich guys who then mysteriously die under weird circumstances 😉

Alexandra works for the FBI and investigates.

The two become friends more or less.

Catharine finds out that Alexandra is working for the FBI…. before this scuba scene.

So, she manipulates Alexandra’s scuba gear (not shown) so she would run out of air before her pressure gauge would show that.

–

So, we can speculate a little on Catharine’s moves after Alexandra runs out of air.

I would say she tries to stop her from ascending as she wants to drown her to get rid of her.

Catharine then fights so that Alexandra can’t ascend. It’s hard to say how far they are down….perhaps Alexandra wouldn’t have a chance, hard to say.

In the magic moment as Alexandra is without her regulator I think Catharine is thinking about what to do.

I mean she is the one who still has air and Alexandra is about to drown quickly.

In my opinion, Alexandra has then a change of heart and gives Alexandra her life-giving regulator.

A decision that she might regret later on… 😉

After that Alexandra suspects that her scuba gear was manipulated….

One of my absolute favorites!

Great job by the sound department here as well. Love the sounds during the struggle 🙂

 

In my version, the finale of the movie would have been a scuba fight between the two…. a scuba fight to the death!

–

Here is a nice poster:

 

–

Here is the IMDB page of the movie:

IMDB-link

–

 

P.S.:

I don’t know how it was handled in the 80s, but nowadays two newly certified divers shouldn’t/wouldn’t go on a dive alone.

They would need an experienced diver on their side.

And they also should have been at the surface again with that kind of oxygen reserve…but ok…

–

A short anecdote about the first time I saw this movie:

I was on holiday on some Mediterranean island in the mid-’90s as a teenager and it was late and the TV in the hotel room was on.

You could see several German TV stations there.

And there I saw a trailer from a TV station for this movie several days before the airing.

And the scuba scene was shown there as well, ok, only bits of it….but these bits got me excited big time!

I couldn’t wait to see that movie…. back then, TV airings, cinemas, and VHS tapes were the only chance to see such scenes.

Female navy divers in an insane action flick from Mexico!

by

Thanks to the nice guy who recommended me this one!

The whole movie is actually available on Youtube (for now) and I will give you the link later on, but first I wanna present my special cut of this scene, that you should watch first 😉

Here is a preview:

(click to enlarge)

–

And here is my special Frogwoman cut (every second of them included):

–

Well…….WTF?!

These scenes alone raise so many questions….

Well, hard to say why they are using these huge scuba tanks (even a double tank) in the first place as a snorkel might have done the job here as well as they don’t have to dive.

But ok, of course, I prefer them wearing scuba tanks.

And wow, never seen such a “red” face on a female scuba diver in a movie 😆

But I guess it was shot in the Caribbean/Gulf of Mexico and running around on land with these temperatures, in such a wetsuit, while carrying those heavy tanks……

I guess this was really exhausting and they were sweating like hell in their suits.

Back to the scene: They are swimming to that mine with most likely the task to defuse it.

I don’t see them having any tools for that. I wonder how they are planning to defuse it? Or is there an ON/OFF switch on that thing? 😆

Ok, I admit, I didn’t see the whole movie as I don’t speak Spanish, and even if I would I wouldn’t do it from the scenes that I saw.

The underwater sounds sound very familiar, I think these are generic sound underwater effects and weren’t from this scene at all!

But well, the mine goes off for some reason and they are seemingly dead? No one could survive such an explosion close by. 

One of them is shown twitching around underwater, as her body seems intact after the explosion of that huge sea-mine…. oh my….

Why this mine needed to be defused this quickly that they have to jump from the ship while being fired upon….I don’t know.

Perhaps someone can solve this and the other mysteries.

–

Here is the whole movie with the correct timing to jump into the insane action:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7phSn5ZaK8&list=FLeS01DQ4C1yMAcOP7F19eUQ&index=1&t=4613s

(not my upload….. hopefully, it will stay on Youtube)

–

Well…. again…..WTF?!?!

Isn’t that navy ship armed in any way? No small cannons, no AA guns, no machine guns, no nothing? Hard to believe… but they are only using their assault rifles to fire upon the bad guys.

Also, the navy guys and girls should be in a big advantage. They are on the big ship, can use cover there (what they are mostly not doing), are better equipped, and still have so many problems in fighting off some goons in their small boats?!?

What I don’t understand at all is….why are all these people just shacking their guns and pretending to fire upon each other???????

It looks like small kids would play with each other in kindergarten 😆

I mean, they used this ship, a helicopter, all these boats, had these rifles…… but then no money to buy some blanks???

This way the whole action looks ridiculous² …

 

This movie is mainly about a female squad of navy soldiers.

Back in 1990 as this movie was made, this was rather unusual.

So, is this movie perhaps feministic?

Well, quite the opposite in my opinion!

I mean most of them are portrayed rather incompetent (for example: the way they hold their rifles) and often are completely hysterical.

This is a rather horrible and sexist way to portray them. Well, Mexico in 1990…. I am not surprised. (wouldn’t be much different in most other countries at that time)

But enough of that, it works as an (unintentional) comedy for me…

 

The wetsuits are very nice, I wish there would be more and better footage of the frogwomen underwater.

What a missed chance….you have 2 navy frogwomen in sexy black wetsuits(!!!!) ….and then no enemy divers to fight against? DAMN!

What I could do if I had such a budget!
