The Review: I Live Underwater by Max Gene Nohl

Max Gene Nohl was a pioneering diver known for his remarkable achievements in underwater exploration, particularly his record-setting dive to 420 feet in 1937. His experiences shaped the diving community, and his work included designing a rebreather and early research on decompression sickness. The book “I Live Underwater” shares his life story and diving adventures, highlighting his struggles, friendships, and the innovative equipment he developed. Tragically, Nohl died in a car accident shortly after submitting his manuscript, which will be published in May 2025.
