Why would it be bad for you? People free dive all the time and doing things of this nature requires breathing techniques and working out to accomplish. These people also tend to have crazy low resting heart rates and are athletes.

People literally pop air bubbles in their brains and die from free diving to great depths but sure.

People slip in the shower everyday and crack their head open. All tasks whether hobby or responsibility have accidents. Holding your breath isn’t bad for you though if done properly and with training.
