An ex - Navy Sailor and Clearance Diver myself, my appreciation in your career choices is astounding, a traveler, dare devil, entrepreneur, nice to see that your life has a lot to offer.

id be scared of sharks for no reason, every shadow or fish id think its a shark. mad respect for you and what you do!

I signed up for school to become an industrial diver, but because of health complications it did not work out. Thank you for sharing so I can still see what it is like 😊

I wouldn’t think I’d watch a 20 minute video all the way through but it felt like it was 5 minutes long due to how entertaining it was! You prob have one of the most awesome jobs out there!

You are making us (land animals) experience something which we will never do 'live' and for THAT we are forever gratefull - a big THANK YOU and safe dives !!!

Been a commercial diver and navy diver for over 20 years. It's a really tough job. Most of the time away from family life. Earn good money but gets old quickly with this job. Nevertheless was an amazing adventure

Only a diver can really, and I mean really, and fully appreciate what working UW entails! . . . Safe dives always my friend! 👌

I started professional diving in late 60’s and by 1973 was saturation diving in the North Sea in the early days of oilfield diving and then over to Newfoundland, Canada for the first offshore oil drilling programme and from there travelled around the world living and working where the best and deep jobs lead to. I moved briefly to starting up ADS work and the first ROV programs as manager, but preferred offshore, so I progressed to being a Barge Superintendent and in control of a pipe laying barge a 300 ton crane and with nearly 300 crew, 4 support boats, sat system and two ROV systems. There have been so many changes, upgrades, safety changes and type of individuals joining the game over those years and nothing like the early days where it was indeed extremely dangerous. It’s certainly not the same nowadays.

I never thought this kind of job exist until i watch this video. Thrilling and adventures job.....

This channel is getting more and more interesting 😀 great vid.

Great video. Hats off to you as that job takes some guts!

Man..what a life. Seeing all those places and oceans.

Awesome vid! Hats off to you Sir. I work in the merchant navy and spent time away deep sea and also 9 years in the North Sea. Found your page accidentally while looking up some fragrances. Definitely got a follower and a hell of a lot of respect from me! Stay safe. (Y)

I love it multi million dollar ships and pipes and they send you down with 2 crescent wrenches instead of box end wrenches

Same here as seaman and working in aramco oil platform in jubail abu ali sea ..before going to the ship as our accomodation one night first in coral hotel in jubail then morning then rock n roll to the sea..really miss working in the platform evrything now is just a good experience...

I really enjoyed this Peter, you certainly have one of the most entertaining channels. Thanks for taking us along!

Worked on oil and gas platforms for years worked with the divers from all over. They were always a crazy group of guys and one of the hardest party people ever.

Huge respect!!! Scarry, raw and dangerous job you have. Such a contrast to your other more sensitive and artistic side of your personality. Very interesting combination.

Peter, thanks for taking us along with you on “just another day at the office”! That was extremely interesting and the camera work was awesome as well! Three quick questions; how long can you safely work at that depth, are you required to log your hours underwater (like a pilot), and was the tank you carried on your back a safety tank or the main air supply? It looks a bit dangerous, so take care and be safe!
