Keith Manning, a dive instructor in Thailand, has recently launched TheAquaPlanet.com, a video sharing site dedicated to scuba diving and the aquatic environment. In other words, it's a YouTube specifically for divers. There aren't many videos on the site yet, but as word spreads, I'm sure that'll change.

For today's Dive Video of the Day, we present The Hover, a short clip of a diver demonstrating how to achieve and maintain proper buoyancy. I'm pretty amazed that he managed to impart this knowledge without using a single word.

I wish all divers looked like this.
