None of them had cave diving training.

That's a separate discipline with its own certifications and its own equipment.

It has its own rules for exactly this type of enclosed environment.

This group also didn't have the deep exploration permit, that is legally the only way into Devanakon do.

It's actually a permit that only a small

Small number of Maldivian technical divers hold.

And on top of it, probably worst of all, this group had gone in on what was known as Taurus tanks, standard recreational compressed air cylinders that at 60 meters are likely to last no more than 20 minutes.

That means when they got into that third chamber, they only had 20 minutes of air.

For this kind of dive, they would have needed a different type of tank entirely, something like those rebreathers or the trimix, etc.

And I I could go on as to the mistakes that the group made.

Two of them were wearing nothing but thin neoprene over swimwear.

Also, the Maldives capped recreational diving at 30 meters.

I mean, they entered the cave at 50 meters and they just went down from there.

So there was not really much reason for them to be doing this dive.

The group made a lot of careless mistakes and that eventually cost them their lives.

But at the end of this voyage, it was the Finnish divers who had to go in and bring them out one by one, a very traumatic experience for those people involved.

But that was not the first time that the Finnish divers had to do a traumatic recovery like this.

In fact, when I was looking into their stories, I found that those three divers had been involved in one of the most

Harrowing cave accidents in all of history.

So twelve years prior to the Maldives disaster, on February sixth, twenty fourteen, five Finnish cave divers stood on the surface of a pond in northern Norway.
