Celebrity Divers - Not just acting as divers.

[DiveGolfSki]

It's a friday ... need a diversion. How about a thread on celebrity divers? They can't just be divers who played one in movies (e.g., Sean Connery, J. Bissett, etc.) but truly hooked. Celebrity definition is as broad as you want it.

Here's my contribution, Tiger Woods.... seen here during his honeymoon on his ship (Privacy). With a new wife like he's got ... he goes diving with his buddies (and caddy) ... that's an addiction.

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes dive together. I also know that Tom Hanks and his son are divers. Do a search for "celebrity divers" on this board and you should be able to find more.

Didn't know they dove underwater too ... ... sorry couldn't resist.

I did a search using "celebrity divers", "movie star divers", etc. but different threads on different topics came up (mostly about movies).

Thanks for your contribution ...

I happen to know this one first hand as he was out on our boat some time ago... (not a big deal to me but the Captain was pretty excited)

Tiger Woods is a NAUI Divemaster, if I'm not mistaken.

When I was in St. Maarten recently, the dive op had pictures (underwater) of Sandra Bullock and Matthew McConnaughy posted up on the wall; they had apparently used the op at some point. Don't know the extent of their diving, though. (Wasn't really interested enough to ask, to be honest....)
