One day in 1938 unknown photographer Bruce Mozert heard in the resort town of silver springs in Florida filming the movie "Tarzan" swimmer johnny Weissmuller in the title role. First of Mozart wanted to make a few of personnel workflow. But the lake, where the shooting took place, was struck by its crystal clear waters, and the photographer was thinking about a series of underwater photographs, which built a waterproof box camera from scrap materials.

Thanks to this box, the photographer could take with the camera under water, and to move freely between the actors. Seeing this structure, the film crew, led by Weismuller laughed for a long time. But the first twelve shots was so clear that the film Studio MGM bought them for advertising Tarzan.
