💨 Abstract

Sir David Attenborough, 99, shared a harrowing scuba diving incident from his early career. While filming on the Great Barrier Reef in 1957, he almost drowned due to a faulty helmet. Despite this close call, he continued his renowned work in natural history documentaries. In a discussion with Prince William, Sir David highlighted the devastating state of ocean reefs and the urgent need for public awareness and action.
