On August 6, 1995, Mr. Martin a cave diver, helped in the rescue of another diver at Tobermory, Ontario. The man had become separated from his partner and was believed to be dead after many hours trapped in a submerged cave. Responding to the partner's request for help, Mr. Martin dove into the chilled waters despite inadequate equipment. The darkness, loose gravel and hazardous narrow unfamiliar passages made it impossible for him to locate the passage taken by the victim. Fortunately, the man's diving partner was able to make it through and found the man alive in an air pocket. Mr. Martin and others then assisted in bringing him to safety.
