    Default Ft. Lauderdale Megalodon Diver

    Hello everyone. Just thought I'd throw a post up in this forum. I'm diving one of the 'Movie' Megs used in the movie "The Cave".

    I'm dive buddies with Padipro on the board here. We both dive Megalodons, mostly on wrecks in SE FL.

    Any other Meg divers on here?

    Hello mempilot

    I'm diving a Meg here in Canada. Mostly quarries in winter time, the St-Lawrence river in summer.

    I have two buddies that have Megs. We trained last spring in Florida.

    I'll be leaving for Mexico in a month with one of my buddies.

    My dive buddy Padipro and I both trained in the springs in N FL as well. Who did your training on the Meg? We trained with Jill Heinerth.

    We where in the Miami area and trained with Tom Mount. We really appreciated his teaching.

    I hear Grand Master Tom is a good guy too...but everytime I hear his name, I hear this voice in the back of my head......a melodic voice.....yet a voice that bristles with a hint of physicality....a voice that tells a story of warriors.....warriors who, who were....

    Tom has a great sense of humour and when we completed the training, he gave my buddy a graduation inspired by the Kung Fu series with David Carradine.

    Default Jill Heinerth Meg Training

    Jill is top notch. I will use her again in the future, and I have sent many other divers to her over the last year. You can get a hold of her via her website www.rebreatherpro.com, and tell her Eric Stadtmueller sent you.
