Amazing, and very cool...that is most impressive considering he is burning oxygen the entire time to propel himself down to depth, and then back up to the surface!!!

Wow!

Good luck with that, Steve, A long time to hold your breath!!


I thought I was the CAT's BUTT, doing free dives in the Caribe...down to 40 feet!!! AND that was when I was running five miles daily...
I can still get down to 25 -30 feet ....but for no where as long a time..
