A person who willingly sinks to prove the surface was boring anyway.

means Someone who goes underwater on purpose, whether for sport, work, or exploration, usually with held breath or borrowed air.

from A plain old agent noun — 'dive' plus '-er,' meaning simply 'one who dives.' 'Dive' itself traces back to Old English 'dufan' (to dive, sink) and 'dyfan' (to dip, duck), both rooted in Germanic words for plunging beneath water. The same ancient family gave English 'dip' and 'deep,' so a diver is etymologically a close cousin of anything that goes down into deepness on purpose.
