“I got trapped in an underwater cave” - the life of a cave diver

What would you do if you got stuck in a cave?

Cave diving is something that has fascinated - and terrified - us for a long time - and today we had the opportunity to get all our questions answered by acclaimed explorer and cave diver - Rannvá Jørmundsson.

Rannvá has a background as a professional diving instructor, specialising in cold water. Rannvá is originally from the Faroe Islands, but currently lives in Cornwall, where she works for the diving equipment company Fourth Element. Rannva has been diving since 2008 and is an IDC Staff instructor and full cave CCR diver, and she is a member of the Explorers Club in New York.

Rannvá told us all about her passion for diving, how she feels it's the best form of mediation and also how she uses her extensive training to handle the risks and dangers involved in cave exploration. Stay tuned to find out if she can convince us to take a dive...
