Lancaster wheelchair adventurer Shaun Gash has completed his latest amazing challenge - an infamous scuba dive which has claimed more than 100 lives.
Shaun took on the Bells Blue Hole in Dahab, Egypt, which is known as 'divers' graveyard' due to the high number of fatalities.
The Blue Hole, on the coast of the Red Sea, has a maximum depth of just over 100m (328 feet), and is in such a remote location that Shaun had to be carried on a stretcher to reach the entrance.
He was trained for the dive by Curly and the team from Morecambe Area Divers, based at Capernwray near Carnforth.
Last year, Shaun and his friend Mohammed Salim Patel, a blind BBC journalist from Blackburn, became the first paraplegic and visually impaired person to dive 40m and be underwater for 60 minutes.
The Bells Blue Hole dive was captured by videographers Jim Cooke, from Centreline Films, and Jodie Rawsthorn from MAD Divers, and the footage will be premiered in a documentary in Lancaster soon.

Shaun has used a wheelchair for 34 years, ever since he was paralysed from his chest down following a car accident when he was 20.
Eight years ago, he also lost his leg while climbing Ben Nevis mountain in Scotland.
But Shaun has not allowed his disabilities to stop him from taking on the toughest challenges to raise money for great causes.
These have included sky diving, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, travelling in his chair from Land's End to John O'Groats, and last year he became the first paraplegic amputee to canoe the Zambezi river.
