DIVE STORIES is the new series on @BlueWorld_plus featuring famous scuba divers talking about experiences they had in the world of diving. Some are scary. All are amazing.

I absolutely...ABSOLUTELY love listening to Edd Sorenson tell stories. He is such a great story teller.

I love how Edd manages to go into a lot of detail when telling his stories, gruesome as they often are, yet never turns the gore into a mere plot device. That takes a great communicator, which is rare in people as technically skilled as he is.

Edd is awesome. I heard that sharks even have a week dedicated to him.

Did anyone notice?






When Edd speaks, he pauses and takes a big breath. Just like he’s always diving

I absolutely love listening to Edd's stories. It feels almost like 80% of them revolve around a central theme of "X is totally impossible, Edd says bet, Edd somehow does X and also does some other thing, Y, at the same time"

Honored to have Edd Sorenson as my Full Cave Instructor. I went back the following day with 1 of the other 2 team members (both were regular cave diving buddies of mine). We pulled the line out which was left overnight, and turned over the fins & a few remaining pieces of gear to be given to the Family. The area was still very "breaky downy" as he put it, and we cleared the cave of gear & line then got the hell out of there as quickly as possible.

This was a rough recovery; & not everyone is built for it. I thankfully never had to see any of his remains, because the other 2 guys were visibly shaken for weeks after, and it took a while before they could talk about it at all.

If Edd have ever decided to write a book about his cave rescue cases/stories, I’d definitely buy it! He’s such a legend and seems very humble 😉😊☺️. Thanks so much Jonathan for giving us more Edd’s stories 😊

Edd is a beast. Taking on massive responsibilities like this isn't an easy thing to do. He seems like he doesn't even question his destiny. He embraces it. Owns it.

You have to respect a man who hydrates consistently.

I could literally listen to Edd tell stories all day long.❤🥰

'If it's impossible call Edd'.... So this is how that came about. He is one awesome dude and a great story-teller to boot.

Edd is a national treasure. Guy is legendary.

I love that my husband knows if I ever get stuck in a cave to call Ed😂 any time he hears Ed on YouTube now he’s like ‘he’s the one I have to call?’

I’m not sure why I’d ever be stuck in a cave or diving but he knows the drill 😂

Another Sorenson video already? You guys have made my weekend! Thanks for the wonderful work and consistent uploads, appreciate it.

I dont dive, I will NEVER dive and I have NEVER understood the 'crazy people' who dive into caves. That all said, since I found Dive Talk, Edd and Mike I am HOOKED. I've watched unknown amounts of videos one after another ever since, I likely know more about diving and rescue than a cpl scuba divers I know lol.
A couple of times I've ALMOST wanted to dive in the ocean (near the shore lol), but more likely I'll just enjoy the adventures through these adventures and be happy with that.
One last thing... Edd and Mike and the people who dive to retrieve bodies from wrecks or who have gotten lost etc.. are TRUE HEROS. I have nothing but absolute respect 🙏

[henrykilkki]

More Ed Sorenson, Mike Young and Martyn Farr etc brilliant story tellers

[scottcol]

Im an open water diver, Woody and Gus sent me here. I could listen to Edd's stories all day 😍

This man sounds like a blast to be around.

[dtreezy]

Edd is a genuine 1 of 1. No one in the world is like this man...What a legend
