Kirk Krack has spent the last five and a half years working with James Cameron on Avatar 2, º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç˜The Way of Waterº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™ teaching actors and crew free diving.
How does a kid from the prairies make it to the set of one of the worldº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™s biggest movies teaching diving?
º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç˜Yeah, Itº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™s funny, everyone wants to know that, right? When I explain where Iº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™m from, Saskatchewan, I always explain it to my American friends, itº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™s the land where you watch your dog run away for three daysº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™.
Krackº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™s parents gave the 14-year-old lifeguard, scuba lessons for his birthday and the rest is history.

º¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç˜We were trying to shoot this documentary about the health and the state of the oceans and the pressure theyº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™re under and what we need to mitigate disasters for it, then we found this slaughter of dolphins that was still going onº¬Ðß²ÝÑо¿Éç™.
