Ice Diving

In the last few winters the temperature did not drop below 0°C in Oldenburg (at least not for multiple consecutive days). This year on the other hand the temperature was below freezing point for more than a week reaching -10°C. Perfect opportunity to go ice diving!

Our water rescue unit at the fire brigade trained ice diving at the quarry pond, which we usually use for training. This time a reporter from the local news paper visited our training and made a short report with photos and a video, which are available here:
