he is said to dwell in the castle of Kronborg, his beard grown down to the floor, and to sleep there until some date when Denmark is in mortal danger, at which time he will rise up and deliver the nation

Video: And Here I Thought You Just Stayed In the Boat and Put Out a Line...
Even with all its difficulties, it sure beats this other type of fishing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Tc6ywqoL6o
But seriously; I do love to SCUBA Dive, at similar depths that he did. What it's hard to understand is...
1- how does he achieve negative buoyancy without exhaling air from his lungs? Granted, a SCUBA tank augments your positive buoyancy. Still, I do need 30-35 lbs of lead weights, just to keep myself neutral.
2- how does he keeps from slicing his feet even as he walks on coral. Experience has taught me that even a slight brush will garner a nasty gash if not protected.

I tip my hat to that great diver.
