Looking for a movie scene

Hello!

for a multimedia performance i'm looking for a movie scene that contains:

- a shot with the point of view of a diver (or something) who falls backwards into the sea. First the sky is shown, then the underwater going, and the light through the becomes less bright, because the diver is sinking.

Can anyone rembere a scene from a movie, or documentary like this discription ?

Or maybe a suggestion for other forums ?

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure but could this be Open Water? Was this scene recent - do you remember if it was shot on digital video?

He's not trying to figure out the name of a movie based on a scene he remembers, he's looking for a movie that definitely contains such a scene so he can use it as part of a presentation...

working in motion picture advertising, the need arises quite often for stock footage. these are my two best contacts...

they will send you a 3/4" with burn-in for your presentation.
