In fact, in the process of diving, most medical problems have nothing to do with diving, such as sunburn, seasickness and dehydration. In fact, these problems can be avoided.

2. What should I do if I meet a shark underwater?

In fact, dogs, snakes, crocodiles and even hippos in the water kill more people than sharks every year. In Australia, 20 people are involved in horse riding deaths every year, and only 1.7 people are killed by sharks.

It is just a misunderstood marine life.

3. Will the gas cylinder run out of gas under water?

In the process of learning to dive, you will also learn how to check the remaining gas in the cylinder regularly so that the gas in your cylinder will not run out. Even if your own gas cylinder is flat for some reason, you can still breathe with the spare vice head that your buddy shared with you. In addition, some divers will choose to carry spare gas cylinders for diving.
