Kirk Krack has spent the last five and a half years working with James Cameron on Avatar 2, º¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù˜The Way of Waterº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™ teaching actors and crew free diving.
How does a kid from the prairies make it to the set of one of the worldº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™s biggest movies teaching diving?
º¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù˜Yeah, Itº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™s funny, everyone wants to know that, right? When I explain where Iº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™m from, Saskatchewan, I always explain it to my American friends, itº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™s the land where you watch your dog run away for three daysº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™.
Krackº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™s parents gave the 14-year-old lifeguard, scuba lessons for his birthday and the rest is history.
Having trained athletes like Tiger Woods, Military teams and actors and production people, Krack remains a strong supporter of the environment, having worked on the award-winning documentary, º¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù˜The Coveº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™.
º¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù˜We were trying to shoot this documentary about the health and the state of the oceans and the pressure theyº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™re under and what we need to mitigate disasters for it, then we found this slaughter of dolphins that was still going onº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™.
Krack is rejoining the Oceanic Preservation Society working on a multi-year project, four to six expeditions a year around the world which will take the next two to three years.
The diver talks to host Peter McCully about working with Tom Cruise and stunt doubling as º¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù˜Batmanº¦Ðß²ÝÑо¿Ëù™.
