When immersing ourselves in the underwater world, we experience a flood of emotions—both in relation to the depths and to being in an environment that is not our own, in which we can almost fly. But our encounters with marine life excite us even more, especially with sharks, dolphins and huge shoals of fish, but also small and colourful nudibranchs, or microscopic shrimps.
International customers are increasingly exposed to dynamic currency conversion (DCC), that is, the option during checkout to proceed with a transaction in the home currency instead of a foreign currency.
However, one study, cited by CNN, shows the average fee applied to this kind of conversion is a whopping 7.6%, more than double the cost of paying in the local currency (usually between 1.5% and 3%).
Professor Joseph Dituri from the University of South Florida broke a previous Guinness World Record when he surfaced after living underwater for 100 days.
A retired U.S. Navy Diving Officer and aquanaut, the 55-year-old Dituri embarked on the project in an effort to learn about the effects of hyperbaric pressure on the human body.
He hypothesises that increased pressure has the potential to help humans live longer and prevent diseases associated with ageing.

Richard Harris, a former Australian of the Year and one of the rescuers of the Thai soccer team (now the subject of the Netflix series, Thai Cave Rescue), investigates why people are drawn to dangerous activities and what we may learn from their experience.
Kostas Thoctarides told state news agency ANA his team had located the wreck of HMS Triumph at a depth of 670 feet at an undisclosed location in the Aegean Sea.
The HMS Triumph was a British T-Class submarine involved in military operations in the Aegean Sea and elsewhere in the European theatre of the Second World War. It carried out twenty missions, including attacks against Axis ships, landing British commandos and rescuing Allied soldiers, until it disappeared during a mission in 1942. Eighty-four submariners were killed when the HMS Triumph sank.
Lawson Wood's Underwater Guide to the Red Sea is both a guide to the best sites for diving and snorkelling, and a photographic ID guide to over 350 common species of marine life, covering fish, invertebrates, corals and megafauna.
It is time to put the ocean first. The ocean covers the majority of the earth, but we have only explored a small portion of its waters. Despite humanity’s utter reliance on it, and compared to the breadth and depth of what it gives us, the ocean receives only a fragment of our attention and resources in return.
