An Epic Journey of an Adventurous Man.
November 13, 2024, Downers Grove, IL — Diveheart proudly presents The Legend of the Statue, a moving documentary now available on YouTube. Award-winning filmmaker David Marsh, and other leaders in the dive industry explore the inspiring journey of Gabe Spataro, a Korean War veteran and adaptive diver whose life was profoundly connected to the iconic Christ of the Abyss statue.
This powerful Diveheart film tells the story of Gabriel Spataro, who helped deliver the legendary "Christ of the Deep" statue in the 1960s from Italy to Key Largo Florida. Decades later, after losing his sight, Gabriel returned to diving with Diveheart to reconnect with the underwater marvel he helped bring to life.
Join us in celebrating Gabe Spataro’s story and the healing power of the water. Watch The Legend of the Statue on Diveheart’s YouTube channel and experience the journey for yourself.
