Scuba Diving Below the Eiffel Tower
Posted in funny, sport, travel on 06/02/2007 10:57 am by SurferI’ve read today in Yahoo news something interesting. The point is that ?ne scuba instructors began offering free lessons Friday — with wet-suits, scuba gear and even a biodegradable towel — at the foot of the Paris’s famed landmark. “Through the water you can see the monument. It’s magnificent,” said New Zealand tourist Adrian Carter, one of the first to try it.
“The above-ground pool is under the Tower, between its four legs. It’s small, at 50 feet by 50 feet, about half the size of a basketball court. Just 4 feet deep, it’s safe for beginners and children aged 8 and older, said the event’s organizers, an umbrella group of scuba associations. To add a touch of realism, the bottom of the pool is studded with waterproof photos of fluorescent fish.”
It’s cool, I’d like to.
