Skilled Chinese Diver, 30, Drowns In Indonesia While Trying To Retrieve Dropped GoPro Camera

Quick Reads Summary is AI generated, newsroom reviewed. A 30-year-old Chinese diver drowned while retrieving a lost camera. Zhang Xiaohan was experienced and held a professional diving qualification. The incident occurred near Kakaban Island in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. A 30-year-old Chinese woman drowned after she dived deep to retrieve a camera that had accidentally fallen into the sea in Indonesia. According to the South China Morning Post (SCMP), Zhang Xiaohan was said to be an experienced diver with a professional scuba diving qualification. She was on a tour near Kakaban Island in East Kalimantan with 12 guests and 3 guides when the incident took place. She was found dead on May 3 at a depth of 87 meters at the Kelapa Dua Dive. According to SCMP, Ms Xiaohan went scuba diving to admire the corals and marine life. However, her GoPro camera she was using slipped from her hands as she was ascending almost eight metres through the waters. Then the 30-year-old reportedly defied her tour guide's warnings and plunged back into the sea to retrieve the gadget. After Ms Xiaohan did not reappear, guides dived to look for her, but failed to find her. They waited for several minutes for the woman to reappear before they reported her missing. Rescue teams, the local marine search agency Basarnas and soldiers were dispatched to comb the sea around Kakaban Island. Eventually, Ms Xiaohan's body was found 88 metres below the surface, near the popular Kelapa Dua diving route on May 3. She was taken to the hospital for a post-mortem. Officials believe that a strong undercurrent might have swept away Ms Xiaohan. An investigation is ongoing. Ms Xiaohan's death has caused much sadness and discussion on Chinese social media. According to some people online, the 30-year-old was an experienced diver with a Divemaster certification. Reacting to the tragic news, one user wrote, "It is usually the case that more professional divers tend to underestimate the power of nature." A relative shared that Ms Xiaohan's family in Zhejiang, China, are heartbroken. Some social media users also stressed that life is more valuable than any camera and advised never diving deep alone. "No camera or footage is as important as your life," one user said. "A tip for all divers, never go deep into the sea without company," commented another.

Skilled diver gets pulled by strong current, drowns while looking for lost GoPro camera

A 30-year-old Chinese diver named Zhang Xiaohan drowned while diving in Indonesia. She was on a tour near Kakaban Island with 12 guests and 3 guides. The island also has the world's largest jellyfish lake, attracting many visitors in recent years. Xiaohan, who drowned while diving in Indonesia, was said to be an experienced diver with a Divemaster certificate, according to the South China Morning Post. A Divemaster certificate is a professional scuba diving qualification. It lets someone guide certified divers, assist instructors and supervise diving activities. Divemasters can lead and support divers but cannot teach full diving courses without becoming an instructor. During the dive, she lost her GoPro camera and tried to go back down to retrieve it. A guide warned her not to do so. But, she went against the suggestion, SCMP added. The group already reached near the surface after diving 30 metres deep. Zhang didn't return, and the guides couldn't find her. A search team later found her body at a depth of 87 metres. She is believed to have been pulled by a strong current. Her death has caused much sadness and discussion on Chinese social media. The diver was taken to hospital for a post-mortem. Authorities are now investigating the case. Many are questioning if more safety measures should be taken by dive tour operators. Even skilled divers can underestimate nature's dangers, per online users. A relative shared that Zhang's family in Zhejiang, China, are heartbroken. People online have stressed that life is more valuable than any camera and advised never diving deep alone. The dive spot near Kakaban Island is known for its stunning underwater scenery and is very popular with tourists. One user wrote, 'No camera or footage is as important as your life.'
