'The Human Limit'. That is what they say inevery sport and every year records get higher faster deeper and better.
If you think in limits they become limits to you. Like the magical dooms crushing depth of 50 meters from freediving history.
We humans create limits ourselves and then are surprised if we break them.
Do you actually really seriously think that we are getting close. Trust me , we are not even scratching the surface of what we will discover is humanly possible.
And besides that, a WR should not be for everybody or more easy attainable but should mean something. So the more difficult to break the more value they retain.
And there is still enough (much more even) competition below WR level, which is only for some top athletes as it should.
So I say kick up the challenge level.
p.s. Most WR´s already surpass the old ones by more that a small margin.
