    This video is why I don't dive below 120ft with buddies...

    I wish I could say the same. Seahunt was probably one of the reasons I was 45 before I started diving. Now I have to fit that extra 25 years or so in the time left. My grandmother and I watch that series glued to the set. They do look funky now, but they didn't at the time. Also coming from a land locked area of the country didn't help either.

    Mike really walks efficiently in the sand while wearing his fins and his doubles.

    Safe diving,

    I finally got to see the first video. I used to work in a diveshop that had a wetsuit Lloyd Bridges wore in the series. It was a size small. They always had him standing on a stool, when photographed with another man, so he wouldn't loose that larger-than-life image

    You got my curiosity piqued. I googled and several sites said he was 6'.

    Land of Enchantment -- not so great for cave diving, but mighty scenic!

    More like 5'4". His suit was waay too small for me.

    It was the main reason he wore double 38s.

    Next time you are in DC, go to American Watersports of VA, and ask to see the suit. Tell Harrison hello for me. It was his father's diveshop when I taught there.

    Those episodes are pretty fun. I love listening to "The Big Broadcast" on Sunday night radio. Shows from the 50s +/-. Gunsmoke is my fav.

    So the old Sea Hunts are great. Hokey, now of course, and some crazy stuff in there, like getting narked causes you to become homicidal....

    Here's an episode where Lloyd rescues trapped miners:
