NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
Two experienced divers died when they ran out of air during an expedition of the ‘most dangerous’ part of a sunken warship, an inquest has heard.
Mark Gallant, 49, and Andrew Harman, 40, became lost and disorientated in the engine room of the Leander class frigate HMS Scylla, off the coast of Cornwall.
Plymouth Coroner’s Court heard the pair were exploring the wreck but failed to resurface.
A third diver, who managed to escape the ship stuck 30 metres under water, recalled following the two men into deck three of the warship.
