The dive during which the accident occurred was not classified as technical. The missing scuba diver was immersed in his usual set of equipment. The dive itself was reconnaissance, carried out to a shallow depth to check visibility and conditions under water. Already upon climbing to the surface, the diver began to uncontrollably plunge down.
The missing scuba diver has vast experience in diving in various conditions and at various depths, has been diving for more than 35 years.

As a result of prospecting, the body of the missing scuba diver was discovered at a depth of 74 meters. It was not possible to raise the body to the surface. The cause of the death of the diver is still unknown. Repeated diving with the aim of lifting the body will be done later.

On July 12, at the 55th year of life, the president of our club, Mikhail Petrovich Zhuravlev, was killed. He made a planned dive to 20 meters, uncontrollably went to great depths and did not leave the dive.
There is no man in Naiad who does not know Mikhail Petrovich. The club’s permanent president since 1983, he has always been an example for each of us. He was the face, heart and soul of Naiad.
Zhuravlev. For many, it is the first memory of the club. He is a conversation with beginners, this is the first dive in the pool, this is a lecture, this is a call that you need to come to the competition. This is the last Saturday at the club and, of course, the rally. He knew how to unite our team, how to manage it and always made balanced and right decisions. Without exaggeration: he alone held the entire club on his shoulders. For all the Nadivists, he was also a Teacher, and a Teacher, and a Teacher, and a Mentor. He was the support and support in any matter. He was able to easily and interestingly explain complex material, he was always ready to give life advice and teach his students something new. He knew and saw through and through each of us. He knew all our strengths and encouraged them, he knew our weaknesses and gave us a chance to improve. He supported all our endeavors and was "for any kipish, except for a hunger strike." Mikhail Petrovich is an activist, he gave the club much more than he received from him, and urged us all to follow the same principle. Thanks to him, our club is a big family.

Утонувший в Хакасии аквалангист был главой томского дайв-клуба "Наяда" - РИА Томск

A cat has eight lives, a diver has two,
One life on water, another on earth.
And if under water, once you were gone,
Then both of these lives, forever lost.
Then both of these lives, forever lost.

With the smile of a bulldog who loved us
And though you looked strictly, you were terribly sweet
Whoever heard this news - goosebumps
Why are you left alone in that depth.
Well, how are you left alone in that depth.

Meeting us every time, you’ve always been glad.
Someone had a teacher, someone a friend and brother,
Now your smile is frozen on the wall
Why are you left alone in that depth.
Why are you left alone in that depth.

Well, if fate decided it’s impossible to change,
With your smile in our hearts, we will continue to live,
What a pity that you do not rewind fate like a halyard
That there was no insurance when you fell down.
That there was no insurance when you fell down.
