Diver exploring deadly Blue Hole recorded footage before his tragic death

***Warning: Some viewers may find this video distressing.***

Harrowing footage has emerged of a diver exploring the infamous Blue Hole in Egypt moments before his tragic death.

The 330-foot marine sinkhole in the Red Sea has widely been claimed to be more dangerous than Mount Everest, with locals saying around 200 divers have lost their lives at Blue Hole.

Meanwhile, a 2014 report from Slate claims 130-or-so people have died there in ‘the last 15 years’. Although, these figures are only estimates.

But of all those tragic cases, one stands out - mainly because the diver was actually filming before his untimely death.

When his body was eventually recovered, the rescue team found his helmet camera, which had somehow remained intact and captured the whole ordeal.

This would have caused Lipski to feel euphoria, confusion, hallucinations, and, finally, a loss of judgment, which would explain why he kept on going deeper and deeper into the Blue Hole.

"That fact this is real footage of a death caught in real time is scary," wrote one viewer.

"That moment when he hits the bottom is both sad and disturbing. The clock alarm, all the dust spreading, the red lensing, the muffled screams of panic. May you be at peace, Yuri," said another.

Meanwhile, a third put: "It's just plain terrifying how, in a span of a mere 7 minutes, he went from diving in shallow waters into being a deadweight in the depths."

The Deepest Breath is streaming on Netflix now.
