Max's journey into the world of diving began during his time in the French military and after transitioning to civilian life, He pursued his passion as a dive instructor in Thailand. During this time, he found himself under the tutelage of Mikko Paasi, a dive shop owner and Thai cave rescue hero.
Together with Mikko and other diving legends, Max has explored Thailand's long-forgotten flooded mines and through the fantastic bottom line initiative, they've mapped kilometres of submerged tunnels, and created options for mine diving training. And revitalized tourism, boosting the local economy. Join me as I catch up with Max and dive deeper into his career, past, present, and future, please enjoy.
