Episode 183 Michael and Robert Thomas Fathers Day

The BiG Scuba Podcast

To celebrate Fathers Day in the UK we have re-released and episode recorded in 2020. Gemma and Ian speak to Michael and Robert Thomas who are father and son. They share similar interests in the caving, diving and diving in caves.

Michael Thomas has been involved in diving for over thirty years including being an Examiner and Training Officer for The Cave Diving Group. He is now the national training officer for the Cave Diving Group in the UK.

His son, Robert became the UK’s youngest fully-qualified cave diver when he turned 18. They were recently involved in a Thailand Cave Project in March 2024 and a full report can be found in the link below.

Currently in June 2024 Robert is in Indonesia teaching CCR and Technical diving with some open water. Michael is busy teaching side mount and cave in the UK and will join Robert in Indonesia for some CCR diving and some exciting cave exploration.
