Diver in Palau had his mask punched and regulator and fin ripped off by another korean dive guide

1.6k Upvotes

Just saw this video about a taiwanese diver and bangladeshi guide claims a korean dive guide from another boat attacked him and his buddy underwater in Palau.

there are other divers who claim they witnessed everything as bystanders.

Everyone was hanging current hooks along the rock wall with the rising tide. The bangladeshi guide’s group came from the opposite direction. Some of their guests tried to push forward into other groups’ hanging areas and even tried to dive down.

The korean dive guide rang a bell and gestured, but the guest didn’t see it. He also gestured to the bangladeshi guide to bring the guests up, but the guide was turned around looking at the rear guests and didn’t notice.

korean dive guide then went over, pulled the descending guest up, and stopped them from going down or into other groups.

The bangladeshi guide then intervened and told the korean not to treat his guests that way. That’s when the korean diver aggressive attack started.

We embarked on the Nautilus Belle Amie liveaboard to Archipelago Revillagigedo (more commonly known as the Socorro Islands) this past February. It was truly a magical and once-in-a-lifetime experience to be swimming with so many pelagics. We saw and interacted with so many mantas, we almost got tired of them by the end of the week!

Completely and unequivocally worth it to see these thresher sharks every morning at Malapascua Island in the Philippines (Nov 2025). We stayed at Evolution Dive Resort and fully enjoyed our time (and other dives) on the island!
