Xu Man is a certified diver with nine years of experience who became a qualified rescue diver in 2024.
She recently embarked on a diving trip to the Maldives with her friend, Zhang Li.
On September 1, they booked a diving package with Plumeria Diving and Watersports Centre, a highly recommended resort.
However, what was meant to be a peaceful adventure quickly turned into a terrifying survival ordeal.
Even before the dive began, warning signs emerged.
