LIGHTS! CAMERA! SUB ACTION!: Underwater Adventures in the Film and TV Industry

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

In 1976 Mike Seares breathed from an aqualung for the first time.


Those few simple breaths were to change his life forever.


The sheer fantasy of floating weightless over coral reefs, mysterious shipwrecks and wondrous marine life had to be experienced to be believed. It was the ultimate adventure.


And it is an adventure that through exploration and film has taken him to the oceans of the world, revealing sights few are privileged to witness.


From filming World War II battleships a hundred and fifty feet down in the South China Sea, to recovering five hundred year old Lucayan Indian skulls deep inside the Blue Holes of the Bahamas.


From supervising underwater stunts on the glossy horror flick Leviathan, to reassuring Indiana Jones before another hazardous ordeal.


From car chases with Russian scientists in pursuit of an escaped beluga whale, to filming in NASA's Neutral Buoyancy Simulator where astronauts train for complex missions in space.


These and other challenges make up LIGHTS! CAMERA! SUB ACTION!
