As someone who grew up poor and still hasn’t really climbed my way out, I hope Liam realized just how lucky he is to go on excursions like this. What an adventure. At least I can watch the videos and see places I’ll never get the chance to otherwise

@@BlueWorldTV my only comment in an otherwise amazing dive for the first one is that Liam was holding the line during the safety stop. Obviously you knew the sea there (or the guide did anyway) but its a no-no as it can pull you up and down (and some times very harshly) if there are waves etc..

@BlueWorldTV 8 ай бұрын

Liveaboards are a wonderful way to do a ton of diving. It can be exhausting, but you get lots of dives. I usually recommend that people also plan to spend a few days before or after the liveaboard on land so you can soak up the local scene a bit too. Because that's the thing you miss on a liveaboard.

@kim0735 8 ай бұрын

Not that deep. We had the kids with us, so we tended to keep it shallower than 100 feet. Most dives weren't much deeper than 60 feet.

Zimmy's soundtracks are always perfect for the tone and feel of each episode, but the segment that begins around 7:33 and fades out around 8:42 (and has tiny echoes throughout the rest of the episode) is so mesmerizing and so wonderfully atmospheric that I felt compelled to create an account just to tell him so -- and ask him if he'd ever consider compiling his favorite Blue World melodies into an album. Thanks for considering!

Thanks for the reply! I really enjoyed the video from a few years back where we got a sneak peak of how you (and your pup) compose the scores for each episode -- it was interesting to see how you emphasize certain emotions and visuals, and how you also sometimes add moments of silence to emphasize words, rest the ears, change the tone, etc. The segment I mentioned before reminds me of Peter Gabriel's instrumental soundtracks, but later in the episode, I hear echoes of Eric Satie. A nice mix! I wonder if you would consider blending some of your favorite Blue World soundtrack moments into a medley?

They are steel HP80 cu ft tanks that hols as much as a normal Aluminum 80 but because they are high pressure, they can be a little smaller. One thing to know about diving in Europe (which includes the Azores) is that they use the DIN valve system. Some places have Yoke adapter valves, but not all. So bring a DIN regulator.
