Gotta find it and jam it from my laptop. iPad has goddamn limitations.

Will revise in a few. This footage is awesome. They use the rov claw to extract a sword from a tower leg and the valve assembly.

again wow! Had to be going full speed. I wonder if it was aggression and it meant to ram it, or if it was chasing fish and hit it by accident.

Is this the vid?


another interesting one.

Any bill fish can, sails can turn on a dime. We lost a freediver near the Cape in baja twenty years ago, it was a stomach wound that he bleed out from.
