Gouldian Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 The Yellow Submarine which brings tourists into the depth to view corals in Cebu was suspended after a Japanese diver capture the submarine crashed into the reefs at Kontiki Drop. Toyoda’s video titled “Coral Crusher” went viral after he posted it in his YouTube account on April 26 and causing the authority to step into to suspend the operation of the Yellow Submarine. As of today the video has been removed from youtube. Let's hope this saga will send a word of caution to tour operators and the public to be careful with the treasures of the deep.

SRC Member iskay Posted May 3, 2013 SRC Member Share Posted May 3, 2013 Kudos to Toyoda! We need more folks like you. Quote "Be formless... shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle; it becomes the bottle. You put it into a teapot; it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friend..." - Lei Siu Lung (Bruce Lee) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
