00:05We were all
00:05kind of like
00:08a bit shocked
00:10well shocked wouldn't be the right wording
00:12because it's negative
00:12we were amazed in a way also
00:14well fingers were trembling that's for sure
00:17was a big animal
00:18big and bigger than ourselves
00:20which is not that often under water
00:23and we didn't expect this at all
00:35He swam by and then he turned around
00:38and faced us
00:40and came back and
00:41it seemed clear that he was curious
00:44and not aggressive
00:46he didn't seem aggressive at all
00:47he was really laid back
00:49he had the attitude of being the boss down there
00:52and when we started releasing
00:54a few bubbles from our mouth
00:56which is a very unusual sound
00:58he started speeding up a little bit
01:00and vanished into the blue
01:17Ghost nets are nets which are lost
01:19or abandoned
01:20by the fishing industry
01:23and they often get entangled
01:24on wrecks
01:25artificial structures underwater
01:27and when they get entangled there
01:30they tend to fish on
01:31because they are made to kill fish
01:34and they still do that
01:35when they're not attached to the fishing boat anymore
01:42Between 1-10% of all fishing gear
01:46of all fishing vessels in the world
01:49gets lost every given year
01:51this might add up to more
01:54than half a million ton per year
01:57this is a huge amount
01:59and every diver
02:00going to any holiday destination
02:02he will encounter some fishing gear
02:24we feel somehow blessed
02:26to have this encounter
02:27which also shows us the importance
02:29of our work
02:30because if a predator
02:32like that is hunting
02:33close to this wreck
02:35that also means that there's
02:37a big amount of fish
02:38and a big amount of things
02:41he could hunt there
02:42or animals he could hunt there
02:43and if they are trapped
02:44there's also a chance we trap
02:46some of these predators
02:47and if we trap them
02:48there are only very few around there
02:50that would be a big disaster
02:52I mean any animal is a disaster
02:53but this adds up and adds up
02:55so it also feels somehow
02:57very well to be on a mission
02:59to remove a net
03:00to make this habitat better
03:02for the living of fishers again
03:19you
