I watched a couple of episodes but didn't get interested. Perhaps I should 
try again.

Synchronicity. I'd never heard free diving referred to that way but a 
couple of weeks ago I read a murder mystery that used it and explained how 
it wasn't related to sleep apnea. A young girl went missing and when the 
divers search the lake they found an old skeleton. She was apnea diving, 
had found the skeleton, and informed the wrong person about her find. It 
didn't turn out well for her but started a chain of events to find out why 
a 20 year old skeleton was there in the first place.

Have you seen 'Mr. Robot' ? Some of the plot twists are a little bizarre 
but at least the hacking scenes are believable compared to most of the 
shows.
