Chapter 169: Those who die in snorkeling are disdainful!
In this world, the earth's water surface area is 71 percent, land area is 29 percent, and water and land area are 7 to 1.
So some people say that people must have at least one diving trip to live, because we live on land and have seen the whole world when we walk on the land, but we have not seen 70% of the place on the earth, that is, in the ocean.
The seabed has a different kind of beauty than the land, and you can see many different things.
The floating potential allows humans to have a first understanding of the underwater world.
Snorkeling, this experience is completely different when viewed through the thick glass in the aquarium!
Now Xi Ming is enjoying a wonderful snorkeling trip with Xia Ritian's family, as well as some company employees, as well as some entertainment artists under superstars.
Many people are snorkeling for the first time, so there are a lot of instructors on the scene, and Xi Ming doesn't want any of those big stars to make a mistake.
They are all laymen, and safety is a top priority.
Because professional snorkeling is a combination of skills, it includes floating, diving, ascent, drainage, ventilation, breathing, self-rescue and equipment selection and other skills, the people present today are not professionals, they are all beginners, so they need a lot of instructors to help them snorkel.
Those coaches are a group of handsome guys with a height of more than 1.75 meters, giving people a very energetic and sharp feeling, and of course, the most important thing is a sense of safety and professionalism.
In these years, snorkeling in Thailand will often play with the dead.
Therefore, this time, Xi Ming arranged one coach for each person, and the Xia family basically had two coaches to ensure their safety.
Out of those coaches came a man with a height of 1.8 meters.
This big man is the commander-in-chief of this floating, and the head coach Zhu Jinzhu is coach.
He walked out to the crowd.
The other coaches stood upright, like soldiers.
"Hello everyone, I am your head coach Zhu Jin, I will be in charge of this floating trip, I wish you all a happy trip, but before the floating, I need to tell you something, first of all, safety, and then some floating knowledge. ”
"Many of us will experience snorkeling and appreciate the wonderful underwater world when we travel to the island, so everyone thinks that snorkeling is a sport that most people can participate in and does not require any training, and many people think that snorkeling is very safe, here I solemnly tell you from the perspective of a professional that this is wrong!"
"Why is it wrong, more than 1,000 people die from drowning in snorkeling around the world every year, and these could have been avoided, but many tourists just ignore the dissuasion and warnings of our staff, and disdain the safety instructions of our staff......!
After the head coach Zhu Jin gave everyone a brief safety lesson, he began to teach everyone the knowledge of snorkeling.
"I'll teach you some knowledge of diving first, because snorkeling is not only floating in the water tour, it is a combination of a number of underwater skills, it includes floating, diving, rising, draining, ventilation, breathing, self-rescue, and the selection and use of equipment and other skills in series, in addition to the coordination of personal motor nerves, we also need our coach to assist you, so that you can minimize the danger. ”
Xi Ming and Xia Tian listened carefully to the words of the coach, although the underwater world is wonderful, but the danger factor is also high, you must listen to the coach when learning to drive, and similarly, you also need to listen to the coach when learning to snorkel.
"Now let's talk about the snorkeling equipment, that is, the snorkeling three treasures, first of all, you have to bring a diving mask, please see, this is the diving mask, bring it to see the corals, fish, turtles at the bottom of the water, but when you try to open your eyes in the water, all you can see is a vague scene, this is because the density of water is denser than the air, the light will be refracted in the water, and the focus of your eyes is adjusted according to the light in the air, so the mask is to keep a cavity in front of your eyes, so that you have a clear line of sight, you want to snorkel, then you must bring a diving mask。 ”
Xia Ribing felt that the mask was so ugly, she muttered, "Coach, the diving mask is so big, I can't wear the goggles." ”
"That's not possible, the biggest difference between the mask and the swimming goggles is that the former not only covers the eyes but also the nose, because in order to prevent squeezing, you need to balance the pressure in the nasal cavity when diving, so swimming goggles cannot be used for diving. ”
"Do you still have any questions about diving masks?"
"Nope. ”
"Then next, I will tell you about this tube, this is called the breathing tube, this is our snorkeling life breathing apparatus, when you are resting or floating on the surface of the water, your face is looking down in the water, you can breathe through this breathing tube, there are several problems to pay attention to, first of all, when there is wind and waves on the water surface, you have to avoid letting the water into your mouth, as long as this tube is in, you can not lift your head out of the water to snorkel underwater for a day, this is no problem at all, and then for this life breathing tube, everyone will try it first, put the mouthpiece of the breathing tube between the lips and teeth, and then you should lean the tube in front of the left earThe mouthpiece should be comfortable and not bruise the mouth or cause jaw fatigue, and it should be straight in your mouth at that time. ”
After finishing the mouthpiece, Coach Zhu took the fins for snorkeling.
He asked, "Everyone knows this, right?"
Everyone nodded.
The voice of the summer heat sounded very loudly, it was fins, flippers.
"That kid is very good, this is the fins, commonly known as fins, you see this fins here, the wide area can provide you with a lot of power, so that you don't have to slide your hands to generate power. ”
"Do you remember the Three Treasures of Snorkeling!"
"Remember!"
"Good!"
"Snorkeling is all according to the instructions of our instructor, you will see our beautiful island of Hawah, a snorkeling mecca, where we don't need to be far from the shore to see schools of colorful tropical fish frolicking in the water and shuttling through the strange rock forest under the sea; Countless schools of silver fish, like silver fans sprinkled in the clear blue sky, sparkling, light blue spotted parrotfish carrying the romance of blue, leisurely passing by you, here our well-informed sea turtles on Hawa Island, will stare at our humans' funny and strange mask diving masks, when you are there, you will understand that no matter how ornate the wording, it is nothing more than a picture of the picturesque beauty here, the way is exhausted, let our instructors take you to experience, first try a dive。 ”
