Cave Diving • A Brief History
Text by Jim Bowden (excerpt from ADM issue 12, 2004)


Of great significance to underwater exploration globally was the invention of the aqualung in 1943 by Emile Gagnan and Jacques Cousteau. This was the first reliable SCUBA, and for many cave dives it still remains the most appropriate equipment even today.
