They usually just get enough time in the water to get their / maintain their diving certification. Police/sheriff departments, on the other hand, are working with older equipment that's not as good, not as well maintained, and only has the 'basics." The divers don't spend as much time in the water because it's not something they 'love' so they don't do it as often. But, that's not something that can pay the bills for most people who live in Michigan, so it becomes their 'hobby.' So while 'hobbyist' can connotate "amateurs", they're actually experts with a ton of experience. They're out diving and training as often as they can (because it's something they love) and have a ton of experience. They keep it well maintained, they upgrade when they can, they're always making sure their equipment is in tip-top shape, and get all the 'bells and whistles'. ![]() They tend to have the latest-and-greatest equipment. Hobbyist divers do this because they love it. ![]() How, you ask? Well, there's actually a good explanation for this! His group went out and found the body in less than 30 minutes. Police/sheriffs had searched the lake for several days and couldn't locate it. There was a case in Michigan where someone fell out of a boat and the body was missing. At the end of the day, you should do your best to stay safe wherever you are.I worked with a guy once who was part of a 'hobbyist' dive group. Just remember that things may not work as advertised or expected, and unfortunate events may happen. The same applies to parking structures, elevators meant for vehicles, and any structure built by humans. Be aware of your surroundings wherever you are and focus on the road ahead while proceeding on this kind of structure. Instead of just feeling sorry for the couple who had the misfortune of being on a bridge that was being raised while their car was on it, you should take this video as a cautionary reminder. Structures like these should not be able to start moving while a vehicle is on them. Local authorities in Belgium have decided to close the Marie Thumas bridge for traffic of any kind until they find the root of the issue. This incident goes to show that not everything you see in the movies happens as the stunt specialists and directors might lead you to believe. One would expect these structures to have several fail-safes to prevent situations like these from happening. The local police commissioner, Marc Vranckx, stated that their injuries are " not very severe." Unfortunately, it is not clear how the driver managed to get on the draw bridge after it began to lift moving elements. The couple and their child went through the fright of their lives, and they were trapped inside once the car landed with its roof facing the wrong way.Īs the Brussels Times notes, the three occupants were admitted into the Gasthuisberg hospital in Leuven for checks. A camera captured the terrifying moment the car went off the busy bridge, which Massachusetts State Police were still investigating Friday night. A car flew off the Zakim Bridge in Boston Friday evening, landing on a highway on-ramp some 25 feet below. Although it may be interesting to see what happened while watching a YouTube video, things were not as relaxed for the family that was inside the car. A car went airborne off the Zakim Bridge in Boston Friday. ![]()
