Haunting GoPro footage captures the Paria diving tragedy, where four divers tragically lost their lives.
On 25 February, 2022, five divers became trapped in a Paria Fuel Trading Company oil pipeline while making repairs to the pipe.
Unknown to the divers, differential pressure had built up after the oil pipe was cleared almost a month earlier.
As four divers worked to remove an inflatable plug, they were suddenly pulled into a vortex created by the pressure, dragging them into the oil pipe.
Despite the diving community's best efforts, only one, Christopher Boodram, managed to escape after maneuvering his way down the pipe for approximately three hours.
The footage was recorded by Kazim Ali Jr. who sadly died along with Fyzal Kurban, Rishi Nagassar and Yusuf Henry.
