Underwater xmas tree

[Peter McGuinness]

(This happened last week, but I have just got the video into downloadable format.)

A bunch of San Diego crazies marked out a christmas tree shape at LJ shores, then did a night dive on it and got the local TVstation to show up and do a news item on it. 45 divers in a restricted area more or less in the surf zone made for some interesting vis-free conditions. It was even worse than bat ray season!

You can download the movie here:

Cool! How about an underwater nativity scene next year?

It's always interesting to see what a group of creative people will come up with.

Thanks for sharing that!

getting the sheep to follow the dive profile will most likely be an issue...

I knew that would be a good setup for someone more creative than I!
