New documentary reveals the truth about Rob Stewart's death?

When Canadian filmmaker Rob Stewart died in a diving accident off the coast of Florida, it came as a huge shock to all the communities in which the Canadian was active. At just 37 years old, Stewart was in the prime of his life as an environmental activist and filmmaker. It was then that the end of his path unexpectedly came…

Media reports suggested that Stewart, still inexperienced as a CCR diver, was induced to make a dangerous and ultimately fatal dive by an instructor. Some commenting on the accident, even went as far as to say that the instructor had survived the dive by leaving the boat first and leaving Stewart to die.

The civil case, set up by Stewart’s parents, was also said to point the finger of blame at the dive organiser, Horizon Divers, who took him to the deep and experience-intensive wreck. The organiser allegedly failed to do his job properly and left the Canadian filmmaker in the water, where he died.

All of the above reports, while dramatic, do not match the analysis of the accident that has been conducted, reports Canadian website cbc.ca. Rob Stewart was not a novice diver. He was a diving instructor and had about 10,000 dives to his credit. He had also used a Rebreather before he started shooting for his latest film. So why did someone with his experience decide to go into a deep, dangerous dive for the third time on the same day? – ask Canadian journalists.

Filmmaker Robert Osborne, himself an experienced technical diver and journalist, launched an 18-month detailed investigation, which is detailed in the CBC Docs POV “The Third Dive: The Death of Rob Stewart”. Blamed for Stewart’s death, Peter Sotis tells his story of what happened that day.

In an exclusive interview, medical expert Dr Thomas Beaver shares his concerns that his work has been manipulated from the start. Osborne has uncovered never-before-seen footage from the night of the accident and revealed a copy of a secret report that has undermined much of the fake news circulating online.

CCD Docs – ‘The Third Dive: The Death of Rob Stewart’ seeks to get to the truth to find out the story behind Rob Stewart’s death. It is a disturbing portrayal of lives ruined, allegations of evidence tampering, a community that protects its own to avoid bad press and the despair of friends and family who are not ready to hear about the calculated risk Stewart took.
