    A Perth free-diver has described the ‘real life nightmare’ of swimming into approximately three tonnes of rubbish floating in the ocean.

    Julia Wheeler, 31, was horrified upon encountering the mass of human waste products including plastic bags, bottles, wrappers and containers that were trapping and suffocating marine life.

    The competitive freediver, who can reach 50m depths in one breath, was training off the coast of Bali, Indonesia when a fellow diver, Trista Fontana, spotted the litter travelling towards them.
