Two American divers died in 1998 after their Australian dive boat left them behind. As a diver myself, I remember that incident quite well. I also dove on the Great Barrier Reef, but fortunately my boat didn’t leave me behind.
The movie about it was absolutely horrifying.
The film ‘Open Water’ is based on that event.
Just watched that movie. Poor people. What a ‘slow’ way to die. You know you’re going to be food sooner or later.
