Apple Watch Saves Diver: What He Said
Zodape went quite deep into the Bay Of Bengal when all of a sudden one of his diving equipment became loose. This got him moving upwards to the surface of the sea and the pace of the ascent would have been fatal.
That's where the Apple Watch Ultra on his wrist was able to detect the sudden rise in elevation and warned him about its possible impact on his lungs. So, when he was unable to stop himself from the ascent, the Watch Ultra alerted the nearby instructor who quickly came to help him and eventually prevented a big mishap in the middle of nowhere.
