“Everybody’s Gonna Pay For Being Out Today”

“At a certain depth, the vest doesn’t inflate because the pressure of the ocean resists the CO2 going into the bag.” 

In the grand scheme of shit I’d rather not endure, this one’s somewhere near the top of the list. 

Nathan Florence’s YouTube has earned its share of accolades, but with his latest upload, he might’ve just taken it up a notch. In this one, Nate delivers a documentary-style, face-to-camera narrative of his recent trip to a haunted outer reef that dragged him through the depths of hell twice over.

Featured chapters include forgetting to wear his inflatable vest, only realising as he’s falling over the ledge, then, in the next session, belatedly strapping it on, only to be driven too deep for the thing to inflate, as well as losing his board to the rocks twice. 

In a session that nearly broke Nate, Tome Lowe, and Russ Bierke, this is definitely one you’ll want to click.
