A diver in his 30s has died following an incident off the coast of Donegal.

The diver was airlifted from a boat off Inishowen at around 1pm on Sunday afternoon.

Malin Head Coastguard received a report of a diver who was unconscious on a dive boat north of Malin Head.

The diver was taken to Letterkenny University Hospital by the Rescue 118 helicopter for treatment, but was pronounced dead on arrival.

He is a cave rescue diver and helped with the thai soccer team rescue? And he passed away on an open water dive? I wonder if it was an extreme depth dive? Doesnt seem likely he would get into trouble otherwise

Pretty experience cave diver, "Michal's exploration saw its depth increase from 103m, achieved by Artur, to 113m, which is an Irish cave-dive depth record."
