This one is from an incredibly rare TV-movie that doesn’t even have the minimum of 5 votes for a rating on IMDB!
I have never seen the whole movie, and I don’t have it in my collection… but I have had this video for quite a while… thanks to a nice guy!
So, time to share it with you guys!

She gets…
…ready for a dive!
And she is stuck!
She is in BIG trouble!

Yeah, I know the audio isn’t in sync… but as I mentioned, I don’t have any other source…. and I am glad I have this one.
Wow, getting stuck like that… is quite embarrassing 😆
I mean, she could easily get out of the tank harness and then cut it free (or swim to the surface without the tank), but no… that would have been too easy 😉
At least her tank isn’t 90% empty as in the usual trope when someone gets stuck underwater…
Besides that… I really like these scenes. She looks great in her wetsuit, and the breathing sounds are well done! #postproduction?
Hopefully, the full movie might show up someday…. but I highly doubt that.
There is also this scene that I never posted here because of … a rather embarrassing reason….:
I thought that both divers in this scene would be guys.
Only one of them is shown well from the front. We only see very little on the surface of the other one.
Lately, this movie was brought up in a forum thread, and I watched that scene again… and I have to admit:
No, those are not two guys in that scene, at least not on the surface! (perhaps a male stunt diver underwater?)
But I took a closer look… and I’m now 99,99% sure that the diver (without the bomb) on the left actually is a woman.
Maybe the picture quality in an earlier version that I had seen was worse… and so I didn’t realize it, hard to say.
But with the fact that a female scuba diver is in the scene… the scene has to be featured here!
Preview:
Yes, the one on the left is…
…a frogwoman!
They are in trouble!
Big trouble!!!

Ok, yes… we do see not much of her both on the surface and underwater.
The water skiing scene is awfully short, and then you see her only from behind, already in full scuba gear.
And I guess I was just skipping through the movie and didn’t make the connection between the water skier and the diver.
She is fully hidden in her scuba gear underwater (hood, narrow mask, vest), especially as basically every shot underwater only shows her thrashing around in the net.
A shame they only showed so little of her 🙁
But nevertheless, that scene must be featured here now!
The peril is shown quite well, even though there is that much movement.
Why they try to bomb that yacht in broad daylight is a mystery to me… but otherwise they couldn’t have filmed this scene well 😉
Also, catching them like that with a net… seems very difficult… but ok.
Some continuation errors are included, as at least one of them is shown without the regulator and then with it back in again.
But ok, maybe he/she lost it once and retrieved it back… only to lose it again? Could be…
Also: How can the guys on the yacht know that they were already dead/finished before they cut the line to the net? Hope? A guess?
I guess it would be awfully difficult to escape such a net when it moves around at that speed, so I think it is quite realistic… more or less.
It’s also interesting that only he was able to get to his knife; her knife is still in the sheath.
Guess she couldn’t reach it as she was entangled in the moving net.
The guys behind this movie certainly had a thing for nets, as this isn’t the only scene where a scuba diver gets caught by it (link above) 😉
Somehow weird that the bad guys in the movie didn’t have scuba divers on their side. I mean, they constantly get attacked by scuba divers who try to blow up their yacht 😆
But maybe they thought that a net here and there was enough… a missed opportunity nonetheless 🙁
However, I was now motivated enough to order the (French) DVD of this movie for the collection.
Perhaps I will now watch the whole movie (subtitles?), even my (school-) French is quite “rusty”.
Thanks to a nice visitor of this site I can present this one today, thanks for the reco.!

Watch the video before you continue!
Yeah, sadly the video quality is rather poor. Hopefully, a better quality will be available in the future.
This scene follows the classic “trapped in a net” storybook for a while.
She gets stuck in the net (why the hell there is no one with her? #Buddy), and she can’t get out + of course… her air is completely depleted already?!?
Wow, she/they don’t follow many rules for safe diving 😆
She gets rescued but doesn’t care about her rescuer at all until she is on the boat… #nextbuddyfail
Then he gets stuck also in the same net… how did he manage to do that? Where is his knife?
Why does he lose his regulator? So many questions…
In the end, it all is just a bad dream of hers… maybe that’s why the two behave so recklessly/dumbly.
On the good side: Her stressed, rapid, loud breathing sounds as the camera gets so close are really well done!
All in all a solid peril scene in my opinion.

Wanna know the title of the movie?
That scene is from episode 1 of Life is Beautiful, a South Korean TV show
As of now… you can find the whole episode on YouTube, but there are no more scuba scenes in it.

After my old Youtube channel was killed about one year ago I had to re-upload all the videos to the new channel and had to edit hundreds of blog posts here.
Basically, I finished that in the first part of last year, but a handful of blog posts are still left that need a proper video and text.
Deep Gold is one of my all-time favorite scuba movies and for that, I wanna present each interesting scuba scene with a blog post in the next weeks.
And then I will …finally ….also update the links in the Hall of Fame section to this movie.
That movie has a LOT to offer and I actually have the 3D Blu-ray in my collection.
The 3D isn’t really good here, but it looks (even) better than in 2D 😉
And right now, even the 2D Blu-ray isn’t available on US Amazon anymore.
Here in the blog post, 2D will have to suffice… and don’t worry, these scenes are very special.
So, let’s start with the first scene!
Preview:
Time for some sneaky….
….sabotage!
Problems? Well… yes!

And here is the video:

…. and that was only a moderate entry as the first scuba scene. MUCH more to follow 😉
This first scene is a nice short scuba peril scene for starters. Not often do you see a female scuba diver sabotaging another boat/yacht.
And I kind of like that she gets entangled in her own net. Not a good place to be when the yacht is about to start moving 😉
In this scene she has a rather “normal” scuba outfit on… in comparison to later when the naughty producer (of this movie) puts her in a totally unusual, sexy/bizarre scuba outfit 😆
Also, a nice aspect here is that we have this couple who speak German and won’t get dubbed or subbed for some reason.
Maybe the German producer of this movie just wanted some lines of German in the movie? Hard to say….
I will post the next scene next week and then is get even more interesting 😉
But I only had a pretty bad copy (worse than DVD) that was black and white.
Now this movie was restored to MUCH better quality as it now has Blu-ray quality… and also got colorized!
Quite a gigantic quality upgrade. 🙂
So, I wanna present the most interesting scene from this movie today.
Preview:
Wow, you don’t see such gear often…especially on a frogwoman!
Trapped!
Nice…. 🙂

And here is the video:

Ok, I don’t speak Italian but have seen subtitles for this scene….so let me give you some backstory to this scene.
She asks the guy if she could try on the FFM (does someone know the type/model?).
As he leaves he asks to take it off again…he is in a hurry as he says.
Well, as you can see she ignores that and goes diving.
He later mention to another guy that the system he gave to her was nearly empty as he was diving with it prior to giving it to her.
In the end, her father is really angry about her being that reckless while only one of the guys takes her side and defends her.
–
I guess this may be one of the earliest female scuba peril scenes in existence as this movie was made in 1953!
The scenario is rather cliche and classic as she is very reckless and also gets trapped in that net.
Sadly it is not shown how she gets entangled in the net in the first place.
But I really love the scuba gear! A FFM with a single corrugated air hose… very sexy! Would love to see a scuba fight with a frogwoman equipped like that 🙂
Also interesting that there is a valve on that mask to switch from snorkel to rebreather (as the guy explains to her).
Really happy that this scene can now be watched in such a picture quality 🙂
This is another classic that deserved an UPGRADE, and now it’s finally time!
We have a classic “female scuba diver gets trapped in net” scene 🙂

Our frogwoman….
….trapped!
….and desperate….

And here is the video:

Initially, I planned on releasing a 10-minute long cut with subtitles. But for some reason, the subtitles didn’t show up in the final file.
So I decided to put up the shorter peril cut as the main video.
You will find the longer video below (without the subtitles).
But back to the scene:
A classic, cliche “frogwoman clumsily dives into a net with very little air left” scenario.
The breathing sounds are pretty loud and done quite well, I am pretty sure they recorded them afterward and included them in the movie.
A pretty sexy result…in my opinion.
She was initially diving with a guy (which you can see in the longer cut) and they both screwed it up in my opinion. He got on the boat again without waiting for her… and she just stopped and decided to go diving on her own. And for some reason she didn’t have a knife… which could have been quite useful here 😉
Even she most likely would have lost it in this cliche scenario… while trying to escape.
Her scuba gear is ok, but I rather hate these old inflatable vests as they totally obscure the … view…
–
Here is the much longer version of the scene with before and after surface shots (not on my public Youtube channel):
In case you don’t speak Dutch … he basically blames her and tells her all the mistakes she made underwater. Nothing of big interest.
–
In the mid of next week, I will make a post about a very unusual scuba fight from the same TV show.
Sadly without women… but a very interesting scuba fight nonetheless.
…but don’t you worry, she won’t be sliced into parts, this isn’t from a horror movie 😉
I posted all the good female scuba scenes from seasons 1-9 of Baywatch in HD.
Seasons 10 and 11 were not available in HD for a long time….that has changed now, so it’s time to present the good female scuba scenes from these episodes as well!
This one is a rather famous one that I wanna post first, even there are interesting scuba scenes earlier in the season.
Preview:
She is stuck in a devilish net!
Her air hose gets….
….sliced!
Let me help you by groping your breasts…

And here is the video:
–
Ok, this is so absurd that it is really funny! 🙂
A net cutting through a modern regulator hose like that???? Oh man! That is very……creative….to say at least 😉
It’s already pretty hard to cut such a hose with a scuba knife. But this net seems to be the sharpest net in history! A net right from hell, it would slice all fishes to pieces 😆
The lifeguards and the other diver behave quite strangely….
The two lifeguards aren’t well prepared. First, shouldn’t they have scuba masks stored on their jetskis? Would be useful! They dive down to her, can’t free her and one has to surface to get a knife from the scuba guy. Why isn’t he down there to help them? His scuba tank doesn’t seem to be empty, he could provide air for the rescue. Then they realize that they might need air and one surfaces to get 2 spare air tanks. Why didn’t they take those in the first dive? And the scuba guy had a scuba tank and a knife…why didn’t he use his knife to free her earlier?
But ok, realism and strange behavior aside….this is quite a nice scuba peril scene!
The camera zooms in relentlessly on the ….”well equipped”….. diver, she gets into peril and illustrates that very well with her ….moaning… sounds. 🙂
Also, it’s good to have a change to the classic “trapped in a net setting” where a diver which almost no air left gets stuck in it.
Here she is trapped, but seemingly has enough air left for a while. The scene only gets really perilous as her air hose gets sliced by that net from hell which puts her into immediate danger.
It’s unclear if she has a 2nd regulator, but maybe she couldn’t have reached it the way she is entangled in the net.
The sound of the escaping air and the sight of the cut air hose spewing bubbles…..is quite sexy!
Interesting that the scene on the surface wasn’t cut in another way…interesting that they let the frames in where the lifeguard gropes her right breast.
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!
(click to enlarge)
–
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. 🙂
I know about this scene for quite a while but haven’t posted it here so far.
A nice guy asked if I would know it and now, I wanna make a post about it.
Here we have the two scuba scenes of the movie.
In the first one, a young couple dives around…each on their own(!), and soon the guy gets into trouble…
In the main scene at the end of the movie they are diving again, and this time the frogwomen gets into trouble….big trouble!
Preview:
She gets into…..
….trouble! She is trapped in a net!
A happy diver-couple!

And here is the video:

Sorry, but that is actually the best picture quality available for this rare greek movie.
–
Well…..I would say….WOW! And not really a good wow…. 😆
They have a gorgeous woman in a solid wetsuit. She dives into a net. A good scenario!
But so many aspects here are really badly done….
First the music: Sounds like a madman on drugs playing some most annoying sounds on his electric keyboard. I get headaches from that…..
And there are so many logic plotholes I don’t know where to start!
Ok, why the happy couple is always diving each on their own….I don’t know….pretty reckless, but ok, not unlogical at least.
Two times she reaches for her knife more or less, why doesn’t she get it???? She isn’t so trapped that she couldn’t reach it.
I guess her tank is supposed to be empty at one point but she is exhaling all the time through her mouthpiece on regular basis. When is she supposed to be out of air?
Of course, it’s the usual theme: when a diver is trapped he/she has only a few % of air left…. oh man.
Why are they cutting SO often (in way too long scenes) to him setting on these rocks???? That interrupts way too often her dramatic scenes.
He decides that she may be in trouble so starts looking for her. Good idea! But why is he diving as slow as a 100-year-old grandma? The love of your life seems to be in trouble… man! She is diving alone and her tank must be pretty empty!!!! You should HURRY….a bit at least….
Often it seems like she isn’t really trapped in the net as it is floating pretty high above the ground. It looks like she even could reach the surface sometimes.
He finally finds her! And what does he do??? He starts yanking on the net! ARGGGGGGGGHHHHHH
Perhaps she needs air???? You could give her some!!!! You also have a knife! Use it, damn it!
All the time she is still conscious and kicking. Just before they reach the surface she doesn’t move anymore. Is he sharing his air with her? NOOOO, still he does nothing like that.
They reach the surface, she still has the regulator in her mouth, which would be very unusual for someone out of air….
But what then? Does he give her mouth to mouth? No, she pushes and pulls a little on her!!!?! Ok, I know that mouth to mouth rescue isn’t a very old technique. And there were older ones before that.
But good god, he moves so slowly! So very slowly …like she would be a puppet on a first aid exercise….no rush….she isn’t breathing…but take your time.
Then she is seemingly conscious for some seconds….but quickly dies afterward??????
And he is still very relaxed… maybe he is thinking: “what the hell, my beloved is dead now….well, then I can go home now and make dinner”.
WHAT???? Who comes up with all that madness?
I guess the screenwriter/director was as mad as the music composer.
Ok, I admit I haven’t seen the full movie as it is in greek language. But so much is going wrong in this final dive scene which could have been so much better!
*EDIT*Here are some background news I got from the nice guy who reminded me about this movie:
The translate of the title is “that summer”. She is scuba teacher but has cancer as the script says. Althought decided to dive with her ex husband. At the second dive she didn’t felt ok underwater because of her illness and finally died. For this reason her ex husband didn’t do her anything to save her.
Well, there you can see how important a background story can be to understand this weirdness better.
But still, I am convinced of many of the things I wrote above.

For you folks I edited the final scene to a much BETTER version …with an open ending (blog exclusive):

The title of the movie is already in the video…but here is the IMDB page:
