WKPP Claims Another World Record Dive

Over the weekend, the WKPP pushed the Wakulla Cave system and got another world record to boot. The push divers spent 7 hours at 260 feet and endured a 14 hour decompression and were rewarded with a new tunnel, "Q". The entered the water at 9am on Saturday and were out at 6am Sunday.

Here are the detailed results - Q-Tunnel discovered off P-Tunnel at 17,000ft.  3,000ft of line added for a total distance around 20,000ft. Monster sized cave heading S-SW towards Spring Creek and the Gulf of Mexico - 60ft floor to ceiling  and 75ft wide in spots.

Wow, that's a huge dive, hats off to them. Maybe they will get another video out of them.
