Mermaids and Manatees with ScubaExtreme
I was just reviewing some of my videos and came across this one, [xr_video id=”c82ab39ed42f48d7abd0540998b0ebd7″ size=”md”] Manatees are such beautiful creatures. Look at the interaction the little one gave and love to have. Rolling over to have its belly rubbed. You can sense the feelings and emotions they have and the experience of being in the water and having one appoach ‘you’ for interaction is unforgettable. Once you do this you are connected for life and got to love them. The season for manatee interaction is approching fast and January will be here before you know it.

Brinicle, Underwater Icicle, Captured Forming By Time-Lapse Camera
New video has been released that shows the formation of a brinicle on the ocean floor. Essentially an underwater icicle, the brinicle, or “finger of death,” freezes everything in its path. Hugh Miller and Doug Anderson filmed the stunning time-lapse clip below, which is apparently the first of its kind. Shot for the BBC’s “Frozen Planet,” the clip was recorded using a special time-lapse camera that caught the brinicle’s entire formation process. What’s really going on here is the freezing of warmer waters as sub-zero brine slowly sinks to the ocean floor. The temperature of this sinking brine, which was well below 0C, caused the water to freeze in an icy sheath around it.Where the so-called “brinicle” met the sea bed, a web of ice formed that froze everything it touched, including sea … Read entire article »
