Guillaume Néry is somewhat of a legend in the freediving world. He’s broke the freediving world record four times and won the world championship twice. While he’s retired from the sport, he still dives and makes short films exploring the depths of the ocean, like this one where he spends over 10 minutes below the surface in the Philippines on a single breath. As instructed by Guillaume, “turn out the light, put on your headphones, and freedive with me around the world.”
Mindboggling. I love being underwater but this guy is part fish. And what’s up with that weird underwear pattern on his wetsuit?
Mesmerising!
It is just amazing!
At first i thought those underwaters corridors were man-made.
It is even better without the sound!
Breathtaking – Yes pun intended.
Apparently it’s two pieces to the wetsuit, snaps together. Ends up looking like that.
Every superhero has that.
Okay, can someone help me wrap my head around what I’m seeing in the bit where it looks like he’s running on top of the water? Is there some sort of air pocket under there causing the water to separate from the rock he’s running on or is it something else? I can’t, for the life of me, make heads or tails.
Never mind, I think I found the answer in the YouTube comments. Apparently, he’s running upside down across a rock outcropping near the surface where the water splashes around and air pockets form.
Wait, was that Atlantis I saw?
Yep, exactly.
