Are you serious? Scuba divers go to like 600 feet no problem when staged correctly. Freedivers hit almost 700 feet without air... and divers in hard suits can probably go a thousand or more feet no problem.
250 feet is NOTHING. Hell, barely certified tourists can dive to 160 feet without issue
It turns out the mean depth is about 140 ft., closest to the island. The depth is shallow enough for specialized diving operations as well as the use of Remotely Operated Vehicles, (as was the case for the construction of both pipelines). I'm a certified scuba diver of over 35 years anything over 100 feet (3 atm) is standard limitation for most divers. We're not talking about Stan Lee super humans though. It's more probable for remotely operated subs to carry out this mission, especially to the proximity of Denmark's Bornholm Island.
Lol, boomer scuba diver has outdated info from the 70's...
" The most common depths for experienced scuba divers is between 20 to 30 metres (66-98 feet). With experience and the right scuba diving certification, recreational scuba divers can go to 40 metres (131 feet) deep with PADI and 50 metres (164 feet) deep with BSAC"
Trained divers can go FAR past those depths with the right tanks and staging... 300 feet is nothing, and cave divers go that deep all the time on rebreathers...
