This summer, on the 26th of July 2011, divers from all over the world will attempt to break the world record in carrying out the largest collective dive in Hurghada, Egypt. The current world record was made on the 17th of August 2009 in Manado, Indonesia. The Indonesian navy managed to have 2486 people dive at the same time at the same location. The "Egypt Scuba Challenge" wants to break this record and is aiming for 3000 divers.
To be held at the New Marina, this location has a large sandy plateau at 12-13 meters depth, which is capable of holding 3000 divers. There is hardly any marine life there, but plenty of rubbish. For this reason they do not only want to break the world record for the largest collective dive, but also the world record for the largest underwater cleanup.
Both records have already been applied for and were accepted by Guinness World Records.
The blue o two Egypt office will have a team in the challenge - why don't you join in too!
