Depth Record in Harasib Cave, Namibia
The Harasib Cave is a large sinkhole in northern Namibia, in the middle of nowhere, far from the nearest town. To even reach the water, we had to rappel down 80 meters, then bring down 1 ton of equipment for 4 divers to make this one dive.
In July 2022, the time had come:
The preparation and follow-up took 4 days, but it was worth it. Our team reached a depth of 179 meters, and the dive lasted 8 hours. A truly great achievement by our dive team:
Tom Baier, Markus Schuster, Ralf Wupper, and Stefan Pape
A spectacular video was also produced:
