How deep is this

Hi, nice vids.
I was in Meedhupparu 2012, and this looks similar, but sadly did not see any sharks. My guess is 10 +/-2m. You are the best to know but I would guess that ledge was about 5m and then you went another 5m down. You asked for an estimate, so here's one.

Going down to 10m without equalizing must be a pain and could cause some damage. 5 m max for me. Depending on your mask, at about 8 m I need to blow some air into the mask. That's also a good reference point.
 
the second film with the animals was probably 5m max.

the first movie though, must have been more than 10m, i was under water for almost a minute with 90cm fins on. had to equalise two or three times, but then was struggling to equalise again so couldnt go deeper.
 
My guess is also max 10m but mostly around 5m

But one thing I feel the need to mention: Why chasing the animals like that, scare them with the camera or even try to touch them? I don't want to offend anybody but I think as sea lovers we need to respect the animals.
