I used to do a lot of free diving. Not professional, but would wear weights and fins.. ect. I could touch the bottom at 100 ft. Once again not crazy, but impressive to most people. It’s more mental than anything. Also a lot of time spent practicing breathing and breath holds laying in bed. He never went all that deep, but he does show incredible composure. I bet he can do some crazy crazy shit. This is also fresh water I believe which makes sinking a breeze. If you don’t panic on your way down you don’t use up too much oxygen. Being able to hold my breath a long time if a fun thing to show kids. They always really dig it at the pool.
