John Bantin's life was transformed when he took some time off from his 25-year-long career as a successful advertising photographer and television commercials’ director to go scuba diving. He learned to dive in 1979 and in 1992 it became his career. He spent over twenty years travelling the world, diving in all the best places, and gaining many different experiences underwater (not all of them good) which has furnished him with a vast store of anecdotes.
