Beware of Amateurs There are several amateur divers and scuba operations that market themselves to the film industry as safety divers but most are merely recreational divers with little or no experience in real rescue work or on a film set. They are cheap because all they may be able to do is blow bubbles and hopefully stay out of the way of cameras and lights. |
All Frogmens divers, on the other hand, are industry professionals with a long list of film and television credits and exceptional stunt and underwater work skills. In addition to being professional stunt performers and riggers, most are Certified Scuba Instructors, Qualified Dive Masters and Certified Rescue Divers. This experience equates to greater efficiency underwater, less prep and shoot time, a greater sense of safety on the part of cast and crew, and ultimately a considerable saving to the production company.
