Today I wanna recommend a movie that I saw this week.
Ok, in terms of scuba… there is very little in it… like 30-40 seconds or so.
But you see plenty of great scenes with “Ocean Ramsey” in freediving suits, encountering all sorts of sharks (mainly tiger sharks).

And I can also recommend this movie if you are interested in sharks!
Surprisingly, the movie also criticizes Ocean Ramsey and her methods as several experts are interviewed.
All in all, it is fascinating to see how she deals with these sharks and shows that they are not the mindless eating machines (like in the great fantasy-thriller “Jaws”).
The movie is available on Netflix if you wanna see it.
… I have the 2nd dive scene with the female hard hat diver for you!
Preview:
Time to….
…gear up again!
Another load of gold!
Somebody wants a snack!

A nice little peril scene with the shark!
Again, her breathing sounds from her hard hat are quite something 🙂
My actual highlight is the bad guy threatening her, “…will cut your air!”. That is something you won’t find very often in any movie!
And she is quite lucky that he didn’t do it, as the sled with the gold was on its way. But ok, he may have still needed her in case it got stuck somewhere.
If that sled had surfaced (much) before her… he might have sliced her air hose or killed her buddy who was operating the machine that supplied her with oxygen.
In my version (without a shark), the bad guys would have sent one of their own with her to keep an eye on her.
As soon as the gold loading would have been finished, he would have sneakily sliced into her thick air hose, damaging it before she could stop him.
Then a nice… slow… underwater fight between the two until she managed to cut his air hose fully….
Sorry for not posting yesterday as usual, time was short, but you get a post with a pretty great scene from a new movie today!
In this one, we have a female hard hat diver… not even sure I have ever seen one in a movie…. and a nice perilous scene 😉
The scene is quite long, so I made some minor cuts and divided the scene into two videos… so they might stay on YouTube.
Preview:
They are ready for the dive!
Nice camera view inside the helmet!
They have found the car
….and she is in big trouble!

This is a case where the marketing folks have screwed it up in a way.
If you see the posters of this movie, you think that is just another cheap, laughable fantasy shark flick…. but it’s not.
Yeah, it’s not exactly an awesome movie, but a good one, really solid. I will buy the Blu-ray for my collection.
Especially the setting in Australia in the late 1940s is pretty fresh and unusual, and the shark isn’t the main danger of the movie, it’s the gangsters who wanna retrieve the stolen gold that lies on the riverbed.
But a huge bull shark is there to get some snacks.
And that seems rather believable as bull sharks are one of the very few shark species that can live in salt water and in fresh water.
It’s quite an image as the shark attacks her and has the hard hat in its bite.
I love it that her air hose snaps and she gets into some “sexy” peril… much better than the shark eating her 😉
The breathing sounds of her in that helmet are quite something, and it’s a great scene when she passes out in her helmet.
I am a little confused why her helmet doesn’t flood… but perhaps there is some mechanism that prevents that.
Luckily, she is saved so she can go on another dive 😉
Some intense scenes, even the “sharks” are really screwed up. Some bad CGI, some roaring :lol:, and a cartoony aggressiveness.
Still interesting scenes with her in quite some danger.
An odd fact that she loses her fins in the cage, but ok… losing fins does happen more often than you would expect 😉 #projectF
There are also some nice close-ups with her in this scene and that regulator looks pretty cool, like the design!
There are also 2 more scenes with her, but one just with swimming on the surface and one laughable bad one underwater where she has a special bonding moment with one of those sharks….. yeah… no kidding. Will certainly not post these here.
For some reason, I couldn’t find this on the blog, another one that got lost over the years… I guess.
That has to change… and that will happen today!
The scuba scene isn’t that great… but it’s a rather epic scene, because… of …… well…. reasons!
Preview:
Ready to… dive! And it’s a coincidence that the zipper is this low 😉
Where is she looking at?
Ah yes… of course!

Watch the video before you continue!
Ok, yes… the underwater scene isn’t really interesting. Yeah, some short diving snippets and some real footage of a great white. Ok.
And I am pretty sure that isn’t Tia Carrere who does the actual diving.
Certainly, the dorky assistant guy on the boat is blessed… while his smoking-hot boss is underwater, he hangs out with another hot woman on the boat…. could be (much) worse!
The real highlights of these scenes are certainly the surface shots with Tia, even it would have been great to have a full view of her in that wetsuit on the surface at some point.
Of course, I would have preferred if she had met some treasure hunters underwater instead of the shark… but no luck here.
Still, this is certainly a very good scene 🙂
P.S.: The added breathing sounds are an interesting choice 🙂
