Live Like Benjo

Live Like Benjo Live Like Benjo was created in October of 2014 after the tragic death by Shallow Water Blackout of Benjamin C. “Benjo” Haller.

Live Like Benjo is a 501(c)3 Non Profit dedicated a world of people living life to its fullest every day with passion, without their lives being cut short by a preventable cause such as a shallow water blackout. Benjo was a lifelong sailor, diver, water lover, and instructor, who hailed from Malletts Bay. After sailing thousands of sea miles and completing over 1500 SCUBA dives, Benjo drowned in s

even feet of water while holding his breath. Shallow Water Blackout is an underwater “faint”
due to lack of oxygen to the brain brought on by prolonged breath holding. It often occurs without warning and, without immediate rescue, victims quickly drown. Shallow Water Blackout is triggered by lower than normal CO2 levels in the body caused by exertion, hyperventilation, or repeated dives. No one is protected from Shallow Water
Blackout: swimmers, athletes, children or anyone breathing hard or playing breath holding games. Shallow Water Blackout can occur in any body of water: oceans, lakes, pools, and bathtubs.
