I agree, I should have put more warning stickers on the post which I mostly meant as a joke.

It is dangerous to draw direct conclusions, but at the same time I find this an incredibly cool thing (not so much as a tool for freediving, but as a general observation and medical implications). But since I picked it up from one of the biggest news sites on the net, I figured it already available information. Of course posting it on a freediving forum twists the context a little bit and may make the exactly same information more dangerous.

So thanks for the corrections - absolutely agree - don't try this at home (and this really doesn't have real implications for diving, but in the land of science fiction, it could enable some really really really long breath holds)

Perhaps more in the category of "beach bar"?
