I’ve now witnessed a tire being changed twice in the past 2 months, so if it was an absolute emergency, I think I could figure it out by myself. I’m not so sure I would know where to put the jack though. And I’d be worried that the screws would come undone while driving. BUT if I had to, I think I could. Maybe next time someone pops a tire, I’ll convince them to take it slow and actually talk me through it.

How I did it: I just popped over for a weekend getaway to the big city (Nassau) and wanted to finally fit in my shark dive. I guess I expected the behavior of the sharks to change significantly when food became present. I expected quicker and more aggressive movements, but that wasn't the case at all. They were just cruising in and out of the feeding circle and kinda butting in front of the feeder for their chance to get a bite of chum. Maybe they're g… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Not only did I dive A shipwreck... I dived the SS Yongala in Ayr, Australia (also departs from Townsville, but Ayr is closer). This dive was amazing! The maximum depth is about 35 meters and the top of the ship rests at about 15 meters.

My 1st dive I hardly took notice of any marine life because I was so amazed by the … Read how I did it…
