“The viral video shows Assamese singer Zubeen Garg struggling while scuba diving in Singapore, depicting the last moments before his death.”
What FACTLY found
The video is unrelated to Zubeen Garg. It was originally posted on 14 May 2025 by adventure enthusiast Marat, who is alive, showing him losing consciousness while free diving off the shores of Dahab, Egypt. Zubeen Garg’s death was confirmed on 19 September 2025 during a separate scuba-diving incident.
