Deep Sea Diver is a character from the animated television series Other, created by Wes Tank. His true identity is unknown. He is a mysterious and imposing figure often seen lurking within the murky depths of the titular Other city's canals and waterways.

Deep Sea Diver is immediately recognizable by his antique diving suit, complete with a heavy helmet, reinforced canvas, and weighted boots. This suit provides him protection from the crushing pressures and unknown elements of the Other's watery underworld. Little is known about his motivations. He appears to be a silent observer, occasionally intervening in the affairs of the series' protagonists, though his intentions remain ambiguous.

His presence injects an element of both wonder and dread into the series' atmosphere. Deep Sea Diver is frequently interpreted as a symbol of the hidden secrets and long forgotten history that lie beneath the surface of the city. His few actions suggest that he could be a guardian, a protector, or perhaps even a threat yet to be fully understood.
