Freediver Has Broken World Record 8 Times

Arnaud Jerald has just set a world record in freediving. Without the aid of an air tank, 27-year-old Jerald held his breath and descended 400-feet into the ocean. For comparison, a SCUBA diver with a PADI open water certification is licensed to go only 60-feet down. Jerald did it all on his own while holding his breath. The entire drive took about four minutes; it took him 105 seconds to go down and 109 seconds to come back to the surface.

This dude probably made it deeper than that titanic sub

[@timmy-wj2hc]

They should have sent him to rescue them.

[@misskay46]

​@@timmy-wj2hcI agree 👍🏽

Uh no.

Padi is 130 feet (not 60). 400+ is crazy for sure and has claimed many lives of people attempting such feats.

[@enderwiggin2917]

Padi open water is 60, advanced is 90, and a deep dive specialty is 120. Tech diving accounts for the deeper ranges.

[@fawn4271]

I just remember the story of that free diver who wanted to break the record but drowned. Scary stuff to mess with.

[@outlawbillionairez9780]

I'm waiting with bated breath for his next attempt. But also have sinking feeling I won't dive into.

[@DaneKaiser]

You should be a news caster.

[@chrishince8947]

He trains by holding his breath while changing stinky diapers! Lol

[@H.Doc11]

Love ❤️ you free divers 🌹

[@raymondtendau2749]

This is more scary than the titan implosion

[@S_Paoli]

will he brake the record 9 times? not sure... don't hold your breath....

[@rinkagamine_8209]

😂😂😂

[@danjamil167]

I watched the movie on Netflix and i don't understand why they dont have those small portable mouth breather air tank strategically placed so that people dont die or why the rescue divers dont carry one with them incase the person needs air before they can get them to the surface 🤔

[@mattsmith4589]

00:25 Mad respect to him BUT it’s unfortunate he cannot open his eyes to see that far below it kind defeats the purpose. Your basically just diving to see when your lungs or eyes will blow

[@andrevallieres624]

Pearl divers can stay under water for about seven minutes, enough to sustain their livelihood. However, this is much less than the world record held by Tom Sietas which clocks in at 22 minutes and 22 seconds!

[@PuffOfSmoke]

Pearl divers doesn't go down to 400 feet to find clams. The amount of pressure at 400 feet is also different.

[@enaya921]

Slay

[@Everblesstasha9798]

I just watch the Netflix documentary with Alissa anyway congratulations

[@Stand_with_Israel]

So he does need to go into a decompression chamber?
Thats not healthy to go down and up that quick at those depths

[@scubacro5758]

Its not scuba diving

[@Mechjeb661]

He is not breathing underwater.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm seeing the current freedive record of what looks like this class at 131m set in 2021 by Alexey Molchanov.

[@stevebald3560]
