I have found a good link that explains what Diegetic and Non-Diegetic sound is and it also has some examples of the different types of sound.
Diegetic sound:
This is where you can hear a sound and at the same time you can also see the action of the object or person that is creating the sound.
- actors speaking to each other (dialogue)
- sounds originating from any object on the screen, like footsteps and police sirens
- music that comes from a sound system or orchestra
Non-Diegetic sound:
Sound is said to be nondiegetic when its source is not present or implied in the narrative universe. Common instances are:
- music or score, used to augment emotions
- actor’s commentary or narration
- any extra sound added for effect
Non-diegetic is also known as commentary or nonliteral sound.

They have used a number of different non-diegetic sounds such as:
- Walking
- The gun reloading
- When they gulled the guns out
- When they opened the van back doors

In this film clip they have used both diegetic and non-diegetic sound such as:
Diegetic:
- when they are talking
- When they get into the barrels and fall into the water
- When the hatch opens and closes
Non-Diegetic:
- The walking on the wooden floor
- The music in the background
