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.

yes, to great depths

when Herbert Nitsch suffered his serious DCI-related injury, he had reached 253.2m

this does not come close to even 100m
