🏊♂️🇱🇰 1984 – Victoria Dam gates malfunctioned. Two Sri Lankan divers went 400ft underwater to open them manually!
Ariyaseela Wickramanayaka and his brother Ruwan Wickramanayaka risked their lives in freezing darkness, extreme pressure, and zero visibility – to save the dam.
Ariyaseela is now the Chairman of Master Divers Sri Lanka. 🙏
This is Sri Lankan history you NEED to know.
Comment "RESPECT" if you admire their bravery! 👇
