“Top Ten Scuba Destinations,” by Brandon Knopp, was about the different types of the most popular scuba diving locations. The articles were written to tell the viewer how certain vacations spot can be a desired diving destination. The articles have a detailed description about the different desired vacation spots and why they are significant. The author describes the spots with, “gorgeous reefs and pristine clear water” (Knopp). By reading the different descriptions of the ten most desired diving spots, I know have a better understanding about what makes a good scuba diving spot. I have also figured out that anyplace on this earth could be a good diving spot as long as the waters are clear and there are unusual sea creatures to look at.
After reading the top ten scuba destinations I figured out what makes a certain spot memorable. Crystal clear waters, unusual fish, and different sea creatures usually make out for a good scuba diving retreat. I know that if I were to go scuba diving then I would want to be able to see straight through the water for a few hundred feet and be able to see unusual fish or other sea creatures.

Oh no, get your gear ready, we’re about to dive in (ohh, yeah)
Anyone on the boat jump for the ocean (ohh, yeah)
But watch out for big hammerhead sharks
We jumping in, follow me
I’m in the sea (I’m in the sea)
I’m in the sea (I’m in the sea)
Nobody can see me ‘cause I’m diving in the sea (diving in the sea)
I’m in the sea (I’m in the sea)
I’m in the sea
Take a good, hard look at my scuba diving gear
I’m in the sea hydrophobic watch me scuba dive
Scuba diving in the waters of the sea
Going farther down, pressure building up
You can’t catch me hydrophobic ‘cause I’m in the sea
Take a look at me (fish)
I’m in the big sea (fish)
We looking at lost treasures
‘Cause it’s so cool (cool)
I got my air tank
And my flippin-flippers
I’m scuba diving, you watching me
Getting so jealous
I’m looking for a lost key for sunken treasures
The treasure box is shining, making me squint
This is not a fantasy, for this is real
I’m in the sea, hydrophobic, you better not get wet
I’m in the sea and
We’re finding stuff and
I found a secret treasure
Holding gold and silver
I’m the king of the sea
On a throne like Triton
If you’re on a boat
Then the fish are bittin’
Hold your mask, we’re going under
I don’t need land ‘cause I’m scuba diving (scuba diving)
I don’t need sun shine ‘cause I’m down under (scuba diving)
I’m in the deep sea with my mask and tank (wooh)
This air tank make bubble sounds hydrophobic
Sea horse if I could find you (find you)
I’d take you home and take care of you (care of you)
Gonna scuba dive all day and night (day and night)
Like fishing on a hot day in the summer sun
I can’t believe I’m scuba diving
In this clear deep blue sea (wooh)
Caribbean
Watch me dive in (can’t you see me)
Never thought I’d be the one
That a big shark saw swimming by
Believe me when I saw
I saw a sea horse
I’m in the sea
I’m in the sea
Nobody can see me ‘cause I’m diving in the sea
I’m in the sea
I’m in the sea
Take a good hard look at my scuba diving gear

I chose to do scuba diving for my research projectbecause I have always been interested in learning how to scuba dive. I thinkthat the experience would last a life time and I don’t think it would besomething someone would forget doing. Throughout the project I have beengathering and gaining information that would help someone become a betterexperienced diver. I learned that if someone wants to become a scuba diver, theyhave to undergo many training courses in order to become certified. A few thingspeople have to learn how to do is how to jump in the water, how to properly usedyou air tank, and how to handle your equipment and use each piece. I alsolearned what makes a good diving location; waters that are crystal clear withdifferent types of sea or ocean creatures. The location or destination for scubadivers plays a major role in someone’s diving experience. I found out later onin the project during my interview with Dr. Richard Champion that people whohave asthma should not try scuba diving. I learned that nine percent of scubadiving deaths come from asthmatic people. Overall, if I had the chance to learnhow to scuba dive I would take the opportunity and hope for the best.
