《深海寻人 Missing》

Yesterday, I went to watch a movie 《深海寻人 Missing》. You can click this link to know more about the story / Synopsis: http://mediacorptv.sg/English/forums/54340/ShowThread.aspx

Actually, what I want to share here is not about the story of the movie. It is about diving part. Haha…… Me diving siao mah and very gian to go dive now, but I can’t. Therefore, go watch this movie as a substitute but………..

I am quite disappointed with the filming result in the underwater. According to the movie, they were diving around the Yonaguni Island. There was a 沉没古城 (real name 与那国岛海底遗址) around the island about 10K years history. In another phrase, they call it the Underwater Pyramids of Japan. (see this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yonaguni.) The island lies 125 km from the east coast of Taiwan at the end of the Ryukyu Islands Chain. In general, it is in East China Sea between Japan and Taiwan.

Normally, I will expect to have a better visibility when it is further up in China Sea. I expect to see more big fishes and beautiful corals ……. But no lor…. Not to what I expect lor. Don’t know whether they don’t use good camera or the visibility was really bad or the 镜头 they capture were not right.

I used to watch underwater documentary, so I expect the shooting should have good result as them….. Clear vision, not so many water particles, more fishes and corals….. heehee… is my expectation too high?

In this movie, they don’t film much fishes and corals but just the boat and the divers…. Hehe…. You will always see 1 or 2 divers with a bare open sea as the background… sianz…. In Yonaguni, large population of hammerhead shark can be found in nearby waters. So they should use this as a very 壮观 attraction mah……… instead of 李心洁(Li Sin Jie) just surrounded by a small school of fishes. That was too common lah……..

Another point is the 与那国岛海底遗址, they had plenty of shoot there…… But I still feel that they lack of something...... lack of 壮观 again lor. A few years back, I saw a documentary about this 与那国岛海底遗址. They film it until very 壮观, water vision is very clear….. even the rocks itself is nicely film……. The 镜头very nicely done. Your eye and mouth will always open big big while watching it……Wah!

If you wanted to show the 伟大 of this 古城, you should do it nicely and make people feel Wah!…….. Of course I know documentary filming should have a special kind of lenses to capture very precision details lor….. haiz… no matter how I still feel missing something lah. I don’t have the Wah! feeling from beginning till the end lor. Hahaha……

About the eerie part, I think lagi worst…….. I think it would be an insult if a lady watching an eerie moive alone and don’t feel scare from beginning till end (will feel 紧张 but not afraid). Nobody sitting beside her or even in the same roll….. nobody sitting infront of her…… but only somebody sitting behind her. So you can imagine the movie liao right.

But I learnt another important things from this movie. And that is Nitrogen narcosis. Now, I know Nitrogen Narcosis not only will harm ourseleve, but it can harm our buddy as well. Nitrogen Narcosis is a reversible alteration in consciousness producing a state similar to alcohol intoxication in divers at depth. See link here to know more about Narcosis http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_narcosis

When Narcosis happened, divers will act like a drunken. They will not know what they do or behave. So in the movie, the real reason why李心洁(Li Sin Jie) boyfriend went disappear in the sea was because she kanna Narcosis. She struggle with him in the water and eventually stabbed him with a diver knife. So ended up he died in the sea and swept away by the current.

So right now, I know narcosis can be so serious. It can kill a person life. If my buddy happened to have Narcosis….. must becareful…. they will either take out their regulator (oxygen mouth piece) to feed the fishes…. Or they will struggle you to death….. :P

How to prevent to have narcosis? Not enough sleep or too stress…… DON’T DIVE! The movie also said that…… because李心洁(Li Sin Jie) overwork before she go for her dive. She had stress her body too much that why narcosis happened.

After watching this show, then I realise there was once I feel giggy while diving was caused by Narcosis (but is a mild one)……. Next time must watch out. Lucky, I just feel giggy and strengthless….. like floating in the air…. Just let the current sweeping me left and right………

When I think back, scuba diving with buddy systems really safe? With buddy, should be safe right, but it can endanger your life too…… so what? But without buddy, you will be definity unsafe….. hehe. Anyway, in general….. take care of yourself, don't act as a hero, don’t be a budden to your buddy but at the same time, must know how to take care of them too.

Very long winded hor….. ok stop here.
