Christian Clark, the 2011 North American winner of the Our World-Underwater Scholarship sponsored by Rolex, spent some time with filmmaker, cave diver and Women Divers Hall of Famer Jill Heinerth as part of his scholarship year, for some mentoring on cave diving and filmmaking. Heinerth gave him a trial by fire, using Clark as a stunt double for scenes for her upcoming film Ben’s Vortex. “Christian is a soft-spoken guy, but his eyes spoke volumes when we descended into the clarity of his first underwater cave. I knew he was hooked,” Heinerth recalls.
SeaLife recently announced the introduction of its latest underwater camera, the DC1400, which is ideal for divers of all levels.
