Plura Cave Deaths (2014): Five professional divers decided to make one of the most difficult cave dives… the entirety of Plura Cave in Rana, Norway. Two Finnish divers met tragic ends. Their bodies were initially deemed too dangerous to retrieve, but four of their friends undertook a risky mission to recover them. Cave diving, by its very nature, offers little margin for error. A sudden incapacitation in a confined, overhead environment, far from immediate assistance, can quickly turn fatal.

A crocodile’s bite force is among the strongest in the animal kingdom, and their primary method of killing prey involves dragging them underwater to drown them, often performing a "death roll" to disorient and dismember. And saltwater crocodiles, the largest reptiles in the world, are notorious for attacking humans when they get too close.

Natalia Molchanova (Russian: Наталья Вадимовна Молчанова) was a Russian champion free diver, multiple world record holder, and the former president of the Russian Free Dive Federation. Natalia was the world’s most decorated free diver, holding 41 world records and winning 23 gold medals during her career.
Free diving is considered one of the deadliest extreme sports. Free divers may descend more than 300 ft (100 m) without using an oxygen tank. At such depths, a diver’s heart rate begins to slow, their blood vessels shrink and their lungs compress. Divers often have to be helped to the surface and revived because diving to such depths squeezes the lungs and can cause major damage..

The 1700’s were a period of growing connectivity between towns, cities and countries in Europe. Empire and increased trade meant that a large amount of cash was available to some of the population, not all of which were particularly educated. There were vast opportunities for conmen to get people to invest in the first mass pyramid and Ponzi schemes as well as in funding somewhat schemes based on unproven science. This turned out to be the case for John Day - an uneducated inventor that got himself into trouble with his overconfidence.
