I placed it on google Drive as the video is very long (nearly 10 minutes) and it wouldn’t “fit” into my Youtube channel anyway

Sorry, for the temporary visible ADs in the upper right corner. Someone recommended me a site where this movie can be found and it was difficult…
Hopefully, there will be a better-quality file available someday, but the movie is hard to find as it is a French TV movie.
For me, this scene has basically just one major flaw… that no frogWOman is involved 😉
The killer and his evil plan are quite unique. Knocking him out, tieing him up, and cutting his air hose? Quite a combo!
Also, the police diver and his twin tanks are a rather rare combo as well.
I don’t fully get how his tanks and his air hoses are connected and I don’t know much about the connections with a twin-tank setup.
The bad guy slices the air hose of the hero without an instant effect. The hero just swaps his regulator and closes one valve to stop the air leak.
Does he then only gets air from one of his tanks? In that case, the bad guy would have significantly reduced the air reserves of the hero.
The second possibility I see is that his second regulator is connected to another valve. In that case… slicing the air hose… would basically have no effect at all.
Certainly, the bad guy had some fun 😉
I mean he came up with a rather perilous plan, he could have just stabbed the hero from behind after the sneaky knockout blow… but he had a more sinister plan.
The “stuck underwater” scenario somehow reminds me of a certain pilot in a Bond movie… but he was equipped much worse than this diver.
At first, I wondered why the evil diver instantly left. I mean he could have watched him drown, but ok, that would have been a risk as it was possible that more divers could have shown up.
The good guy was really lucky that his partner found him and called for backup.
In my version of the story at least one of these divers would have been a woman. Imagine a villainess completely in black attacking the hot female police diver 😉

If you wanna know what happens to the bad guy at the end of the movie:
Out frogwoman who was stuck in the net in that post is in this video as well, but only short as this post isn’t really about her.
I just included her in the video so that you can see her again 😉
This post is rather from my “Imagine if…” series.
We have a pretty long and intense scuba fight with two frogmen. Damn, I wish there would be such a long scuba fight between two frogWOmen 😉
Check it out, I bet you will like it 😉

Our frogwoman is sadly send to the surface
But we get an intense…

Watch the video before you continue!
Wow, pretty much every way on how to kill an enemy diver is included in this fight…
They try to stab each other, strangle each other, a mask gets ripped off, kick each other, and try to kill the other one with rocks(!) and one tries to smash the other one’s head against rocks.
The scriptwriter was pretty creative for sure! Only a harpoon and a sliced air hose were missing 😉
And the way the good guy finishes the villain (actually Rutger Hauer!) is quite sinister.
I mean I never liked these inflatable vests, especially on frogwomen…. as they obscure the view, but is there no way to stop the inflation once the mechanism was “activated”?
Would like to know if such a “pull cord” had a safety mechanism or so…. I mean I can’t imagine that one unintentional pull on that thing would mean certain death if you are below a certain depth.
I mean, if an enemy diver can be killed with one pull on the inflation mechanism… it’s a very easy method.
Perhaps someone here can explain how these old inflatable vests worked and how “safe” they actually are. Seems like there were quite some potential risks with these vests.. at least regarding misuse.
*EDIT1* Unfortunately it was blocked 16 hours after I uploaded it on Youtube.
I didn’t think this video would be problematic since the movie is so unknown and old, but well, I moved it to Goggle Drive so you folks can still enjoy the scenes.

Yeah, I know the picture quality isn’t good….but that fits the actual quality of the movie. There is no Blu-ray or DVD release of this one 😉
The idea of the rubber frogman as a sea monster is interesting. I don’t know why she would faint, even he surfaces so suddenly. She should have noticed the bubbles he leaves before…and thereby knows that there is no monster chasing her but a diver.
He’s a pretty creepy guy and actually dies only moments later as the real “monster” gets him. That was done really bad, therefore I excluded that scene…and besides this is the frogWOman blog 😉
A shame that the creepy guy has the really great vintage scuba gear and the female lead and her guy have only rather lame neoprene suits (in my opinion).
Would have been great to see the woman in that rubber gear fighting the monster underwater! But no luck…
If you have visited this site from time to time you may know my first complaint:
The missing color! Wetsuits and underwater scenes look so much better in color!
And in my version that sneaky frogwoman wouldn’t escape the scuba fight.
In my version, she would fight alongside him, battling the 2 evil frogmen. One would rip the scuba mask of the good guy off. While he is searching after it they would attack her. She would finish one off but the second would cut her air hose. She would try hard to get his regulator. In the end, she would survive together with the hero.
But on the good side, she looks great in that rubber wetsuit with the double hose regulator. A great example of sexy vintage scuba gear!
