As it became known, 63-year-old Elena Dorofeeva was scuba diving in the Tatar Strait together with an experienced diving instructor Pavel.
As a result of the error of the instructor, who did not have enough cargo for diving, Elena Dorofeeva was carried away by a strong current. About it reports Telegram-channel “112”.
The woman independently began to rise to the surface and found herself 500 meters from the boat, where she was not noticed.
During the day Elena Dorofeeva struggled with the sea elements, and at night her search was complicated by the storm. Fortunately, towards morning the woman managed to find a stick, on which she pulled her orange flipper and started waving desperately, attracting the attention of the passing vessel “Otto Schmidt”. Thanks to her ingenuity and perseverance Elena Dorofeeva was spotted and safely rescued.
