Here's an example:
『紧急情况部伏尔加河沿岸中心负责人潘申对记者说,绝大部分遇难者遗体都是在沉没的船上搜寻到的,潜水员
对沉船的三层甲板进行了全面搜寻,发现遇难者身上大部分都穿有救生衣,这表明他们在事故发生时可能已经做
好了逃生的准备,但是由于船体下沉太快,没有来得及逃生。』

What is "frogman"?

Editor: "frogman: a person equipped (as with face mask, flippers, and air supply) for extended periods of
underwater swimming; especially : a person so equipped for military reconnaissance and demolition"
(Merriam-Webster)

Look up 蛙人 in CEDICT! ;-)
Example from the web: 两个海底潜水员蛙人图片

Wikipedia: 潛水員 (網路用語),在網路討論區長期不發言的會員 (we have that sense listed in the 潛水 entry)

Is a 潜水员 necessarily a professional? I found this ----
你也许不知道,许多休闲潜水员今日视为标准的仪器装备 (如BCD、压力表等) 原来都是由技术潜水 (Tech
Diving) 中改良而来的。

... and jukuu has this: 内德过去是一名深水潜水员,现在他已走到另一个极端,开始从事悬挂式滑行运动。

Wikipedia@水肺潛水 says 水肺潛水又稱水肺式潛泳、SCUBA DIVING,指潛水員自行攜帶水下呼吸系統所進行
的潛水活動。 ---- presumably, 潛水員 just refers to scuba divers in general here, not just professional divers.
