Diving's thin line: a 13-hour Red Sea drift ends in rescue and renewal

A 2004 Red Sea dive turned into a 13-hour drift when a sudden current separated Alexandra Alves Gaspar and her group from their liveaboard; after exhausting efforts and limited tracking, local fishermen led a dramatic rescue with help from a regional search, leaving her traumatized but hooked on diving, and decades later she returns to the same waters, even swimming with dolphins who she recalls as part of the miracle, while noting improved safety tech that makes diving safer today.
