The Slow Mo Guys played with waterproof fireworks in a small tank to see how they would react with the water underneath and at the surface. At 120,000 frames per second, the world turns into CGI. A world that takes up 24GB per second.
NOWNESS and photographer Ian Derry visited freediver Johanna Nordblad, the woman who holds a world record for diving under ice. Her fascination with the frigid, yet peaceful conditions came after she was subjected to ice water treatments for a serious leg fracture.
Jonathan Bird’s Blue World shares footage of one of nature’s odd relationships – as a hermit crab helps move a pair of anemones from her old shell to a bigger one. The anemones offer the crab protection, and the crab offers food to the anemones. (Thanks Paul!)
Devin Supertramp’s gang dips beneath the waves in Belize for a flight on a Subwing – a device which works like an underwater wakeboard of sorts. The lightweight boards let riders twist and turn as they’re towed by a boat. We’d just get water up our noses.
Back in November 2015, Rosarito Underwater Park sank a former Mexican Navy battleship as the basis for an artificial reef. Photographer JP Ussel was on hand with a plethora of GoPros to capture the action from inside and outside the ship as it met its final resting place.
YouTuber MrLiftHog lost control of his remote-controlled airplane because he was temporarily blinded by the sun. The plane crashed into the sea and immediately got wrecked, but the GoPro camera attached to it kept rolling.
While the majority of drones out there are designed to fly in the air, the 16″ x 8″ Trident is designed to go underwater instead. This agile, remote-controlled micro-sub sends data via a tether, and has a built-in HD camera and lights to explore and record sea life.
It’s not often that you see an octopus carrying things around, but when you do, it’s kind of silly looking. A diver spotted one of the eight-legged sea creatures awkwardly trying to carry two halves of a coconut shell. It’s like Octodad IRL.
(PG-13 Language) Irish rapper Kojaque trained extensively to be able to hold his breath and lip sync underwater to make the video for his track Midnight Flower. The dazed look on his face by the end says it all.
Jonathan Gordon was taken aback while snorkeling in the caribbean, as he stumbled onto this octopus and its amazing innate abilities to blend into its surroundings. It’s exactly like the plot of Octodad, but not.
Surreal footage of freediver Guillaume Néry being carried along by strong underwater currents near Tahiti. At first, he just floats like a dead man, but later mimics the movements of running on the surface of the Moon.
Diver Rick Coleman took his wife Susie out on a trip to catch some spiny lobster. But she didn’t have the benefit of a net, and tried to catch these crafty crustaceans using only her hands. As the video shows, it’s not an easy task.
U-Boat Worx‘ latest personal submarine is a compact two-seater. Able to dive up to 100m (330ft), the HP Sport Sub 2 weighs just 2200kg (4850lb) and can fit on a 30m+ super yacht or be launched directly from a trailer.
Rinspeed’s amphibious sports car, the sQuba can dive up to 10m (33ft.) and move at up to 2 knots (2.3mph) underwater. It has three electric motors – one for land, two for water – two jet ski motors and two oxygen tanks for passengers.
We’ve seen dolphins playing with underwater bubble rings, but freediver David Helderle has honed the act of making underwater vortexes into a fine craft. Aquaman should have had this power. (Thanks Michael!)
An aggressive Atlantic Goliath Grouper didn’t like this scuba diver spearfishing in his neck of the woods, and proceeded to steal the diver’s fish and the spear gun that it was attached to. There’s a reason he’s named Goliath after all.
Photographer Nana Trongratanawong captured this amazing GoPro footage as she snorkeled in a Palau lake filled with millions of golden jellyfish. Apparently the stingers on these jellies aren’t powerful enough to harm humans.
What is it with octopi and their interest in cameras? While filming off the coast of Carmel, California, divers David Malvestuto and Warren Murray encountered one cephalopod who really wanted a camera, and didn’t want to let go.
This tiny little puffer fish has quite a talent – constructing immaculate underwater crop circles by swimming in the sand. The spirographs measure seven feet in diameter. (Thanks Orion!)
From the looks of this clip, we’re guessing these black finless porpoises started to pass around an underwater bubble by being enticed with lots of delicious fish treats. Now they do it on porpoise. There, we said it.
BBC Earth shows us the ridiculously massive Pliosaurus funkei – also known as “Predator X” using computer simulation. The killer, sea-dwelling creature was said to have had a bite four times more powerful than mighty T. Rex.
