“Carlos is over four hours into an epic dive,” the series narrator reveals. On land, Dustin oversees the activities, “I think he’s down about nine feet right now, he can’t hear me because that comm’s broke. There’s no way for me to talk to him,” Dustin explains.
In the murky depths, Carlos skims the bottom of the rushing water and clears a path in hopes of uncovering more gold. “C’mon baby, get some gold,” Dustin prays aloud, knowing Carlos can’t hear him. But when a mic from underwater catches Carlos saying he can’t breathe, Dustin and the others on land notice the engine to the compressor, which provides air, has malfunctioned.
“Get the f**k outta there,” Dustin says, willing Carlos to emerge from the dark waters. Will he escape potential disaster? Check out the full clip above, and don’t miss the rest of the episode when it airs on Discovery and streams on discovery+.
