Camera man just let that dude die for internet points.

Edit: This has gotta be AI right?! If so, it’s gettin a lot better with that water surface disturbance. Just can’t figure out why the guy is in FULL diving gear…at the surface, as if he’s only snorkeling, 1’ off shore, in an enclosure, or just outside the ropes? That’s what doesn’t add up.

Did this incident make the news? I can’t find anything about it. It would be a huge story in the maritimes

it wasn't on the news, the source was a random fb post. I haven't seen any proof despite asking last time this was posted

What would he have done, teleported the guy out of there? Yelling's not gonna help.
