I will share the other pictures from my dive in the next post. But this ancient absolutely massive Hawksbill Sea Turtle deserves its own post. This guy was probably about 1.8 meters long and he didn't even react when I got super close to film him munching down. It is 1000% cooler in the video I'll be uploading soon.

Spotted a tiny Chelidonura livida on todays dive. Pics and video coming soon!

Decided to skip diving tomorrow to heal up a bit. Day after tomorrow im doing a deco dive! So stoked.

Holy hell do i have a treat for you guys from todays dive (will upload soon). There was an absolutely humungus Hawksbill Sea turtle on todays dive. He must have been close to 100 years old. He was just chilling on the sea floor eating some sea grass and he let me get as close as i wanted (i tried to keep a bit of distance out of respect). But yea i got some amazing video of him up close!

For now ill just share my dive profile (link below) and a picture of my tissue saturation an hour after dive is attached.

Here is yesterdays dive with an attempt at color correction. There is a large Trumpet fish, a school of smaller trumpet fish, Blue Staghorn, baby Giant Clam, and a Puffer fish.

The color corrected version (which im uploading the video for) looks much better but has some artifacts.

Some highlights from today's 100 ft (30 meter) dive. Full video will be uploaded tomorrow, these are screen grabs.

We have an adult puffer fish who swam up to me at the end of the dive. An absolutely massive trumpet fish (there is a whole school of them in the uncut video), some blue staghorn coral, and a baby giant clam.

Here is the link to the dive data for anyone who wants to see the dive profile.

The night life in egypt isnt too bad. Cheap but good food and drinks, the stores are ok, mostly inexpensive imitation stuff but good quality imitations.

Holy crap im so excited, all the exercise i have been doing paid off, my gas consumption rate is extremely low, even less than someone half my weight who is a top notch diver. My SAC (surface air consumption) was only 0.5 ft^3 / min (14 liters per minute). Im excited about this for two reasons. First tec divers who are fit and well trained tend to be at 15 to 18 liters per min so i am ahead of the curve. Second its the best sac rate i ever got. Yesterdays dive was 0.69 so significantly better than my last dive.

In the past few months since from when i started swimming laps to now my resting heart rate has decreased from about 92/93 to 76 as of today. Being one of the biggest indicators of heart health im glad to see it improving.

So i think im gonna go 30 meters /100 feet for tomorrows dive. Step it up a notch. Probably go with EANx32 for my gas blend.

So i signed up for another shore dive tomorrow. Hopefully i can go a bit deeper, will be with a tec instructor just so he can give me a pass on my skills to go solo.
