Diving Gone WRONG: Florida’s Boynton Beach (Wes Skiles)

from The Ocean is Scary Podcast

In July 2010, the diving industry lost one of its most beloved and talented photographers when Wes Skiles died on a seemingly routine dive off Boynton Beach, FL. A man who defied the odds by going deeper and farther than most who’d come before him, all the while delivering incredibly stunning still and video images. Wesley C. Skiles (March 6, 1958 – July 21, 2010) was an American cave diving pioneer, explorer, and underwater cinematographer. He lived in High Springs, Florida. He died while diving near West Palm Beach, Florida.⁠#diving⁠ ⁠#cavediving⁠ ⁠#florida⁠ ⁠#gonewrong⁠ ⁠#ocean ⁠#disaster⁠ ⁠#tragedy⁠ ⁠#unfortunate⁠ ⁠#scary⁠ ⁠#scuba⁠ ⁠#photography⁠ ⁠#diver Hosted on Acast.
