Film as many scary things as possible before you run out of oxygen, camera battery, or friends. If you survive, get back to the diving bell to transport you and the remaining members of your team to the surface. Upload your chaotic footage to SpookTube, settle in for a watch party, and wait for the views to tick up.
Every run lasts 3 days; the more scary stuff you film, the more you go viral.

If your team accumulates enough views in three days - you get to keep going with your SpookTube Career and live a life of fame and fortune!
