This week, courts have sided with Netflix in a defamation lawsuit after a movie painted him in a bad light. A diving destination is in hot water for holding onto divers deposits and blanking them stating that they are closed for business even though their website says otherwise and the great barrier reef has just experienced it’s worst coral bleaching heatwave in history that some are describing as an underwater bushfire.

This week, I’m going to be covering the death of Jared Hires who was a very well known and loved member of the diving community and general manager of Dive Rite who died this week on a dive in the Plura Cave system in Norway which is the same cave system as the 2016 documentary Diving into the unknown where a team of divers risk their lives and legal repercussions to recover the remains of their friend who also died in the cave system.
Now, I’m going to be reading through the DAN preliminary accident analysis and explaining anything that may be complicated

This week, the first ever woman cave diver is being recognised into the Women Divers Hall Of Fame. A study has shown that MPAs are making a huge difference in the waters where they’re enforced and there’s a new underwater museum being created with loads of artifacts for you to check out.

This week an extreme shift in the weather conditions in Malta led to emergency services rescuing 17 divers out at sea. The department of wildlife and fish is facing a 30 thousand dollar fine following the death of one of their staff during a routing snorkelling survey. A new nominee is to be inducted into the International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame in recognition of her groundbreaking contributions to the diving world. And this month PADI has introduced their youngest course director to date at just 21.
