You cannot say that you were under water if there's no bubbles around you. It's so transparent

OMG!!!! The advertisement is The Maze Runner Death Cure... For the first time I felt like the ad is so short @ 2.5 minutes.

Sweet sweet video , you should visit Kentucky and go to N natural Bridge you would love it I’m so jealous of you I would love to be in your shoes right now keep up the good work I love your work you bring me good vibes.

Rolly Balondo - 6 years ago

it's funny how hard it is to go deeper, is that the suit or the density of the water. super clear water though.

Jarom Aldr - 6 years ago

Hello Finn, do you remember the tour company you used for this experience? I like the idea of getting to the place early and have the place to yourself. Thanks.

What a stunning beauty of nature so beautiful you always got a nice content to all your videos

Jocelyn Rubin - 7 years ago

Now I can put into words why I like this video other than the amazing place for geology fans like me where two continents meet/are formed. I don't like dark ocean floors but I do love being in the water and the water of this place is so clear it's like it's lit (As Finn). You're tough to stay in the cold water. Anything for the video right? :D Maybe one day I can do this too. You're such an inspiration!

Kung Markatta - 7 years ago

What a cool thing to do :)

Don Patrick - 7 years ago

Liked!!! BRRRRRRR! G. B. I. T. here! Imagining how cold you were,. Whew!

ButacuP PucatuB - 7 years ago

Gorgeous! Wow!!!! Do they allow scuba diving? I love the colours! Being in the water is what I love and cherish. Thanks for sharing your adventures!!

Tofu Kingpin - 6 years ago

ButacuP PucatuB They do, but most if not all operators require you to have dry suit experience and a certain number of dives (probably logged).

blessed traveler - 7 years ago

Nice job on the video. So sorry to read about your Mom. Best wishes to her and your family.

Mitchek Dinawanao - 7 years ago

ranlive1 nice place

kimlalajo - 8 years ago

So sorry to be late on your newest video, Finn. My cousin was very ill the last few weeks and died just this morning (15th Nov.), only 52 years old, some crazy illness the doctors were not even sure of the cause, but a wonderful family man with three sons and one granddaughter, and a huge loss to our family. Have not had a chance to watch until now. Trying to keep my mind off of his death, and your video provided a beautiful distraction for me. Thank you so much for that. Another wonderful video. I really love your channel and what you are doing. Keep it up. You are doing a fantastic job and I really am hoping that your channel grows. Love from the old nurse over in Texas USA. Glad your leg is completely healed. ; )

Mihaela6476 - 7 years ago

FinnSnow I'm sorry! I hope your mother is better now!

kimlalajo - 8 years ago

Sorry to hear about your Mom, Finn. Hold her tight. Lost both my parents and my brother to cancer (and my sister currently is fighting it, as well). I will keep her in my thoughts. I hope she can beat it. Wishing her the best, and you too, buddy.

FinnSnow - 8 years ago

I'm so sad to hear this, your words really touches me and that my channel can take your mind off the grief. My mom is starting her 3rd chemo soon so I somewhat feel your pain. Wish you and your family strength in the coming days. Love, Finn

I Macey - 8 years ago

Should have put some lead weight on and dived down deep " hole your breath "!

FinnSnow - 8 years ago

Yeah, unfortunately we can't touch or move any rocks in that area..

Megoon M.A.R. - 8 years ago

wow! that looks fun . I have never been snorkeling before. I would love to try it.Was there no fish in that area?

Mihaela6476 - 7 years ago

Megoon M.A.R. Maybe the water its to cold!

Megoon M.A.R. - 8 years ago

That's good to hear your leg is doing better.
I was about to say wow seriously clear blue water with no fish. Are they scared of some cameras? LOL Hope you been doing good. : )

FinnSnow - 8 years ago

There's some in the lake before the cracks. Leg is almost perfectoo

Megoon M.A.R. - 8 years ago

Does your leg feels better Finn?

FinnSnow - 8 years ago

Roman Silinek Thanks Roman. Stay awesome.

Denise T - 8 years ago

Heavenly Bound Girl - 8 years ago

What a wonderful experience to share. I can happily report that you helped me with my bucket list. I don't have to snorkel there anymore. thanks! lol

FinnSnow - 8 years ago

Hope to have inspired you :)

Steven Lester - 8 years ago

Does this mean, then, that the two plates are pulling away from each other? Is this the northern part of the Mid-Atlantic Rift? Were you ever really cold? Was there any water life anywhere? Ah, to be young and adventurous. Any word yet as to the dam construction plans?

FinnSnow - 8 years ago

Yes, mid Atlantic, 2 cm a year they pull a part. Extremely cold but dry suits cover most of that. As far as the construction we don't know yet..

Don Kettle - 8 years ago

That was amazing and truly beautiful. Way to go, Finn.

FinnSnow - 8 years ago

Thanks Don!
