Re: Patrick Musimu - new record attempt?

Keep in mind tha Seb Murat competed in the 1998 Sardinia World Championships and was doing more than 8 minutes during the static training days, when the world record was still 7'35". Fred Buyle in particular told me he personally witnessed one of these 8+ statics in the Sardinia pool in 1998.

Sadly Murat had a problem with extreme nervousness during the competition and did under 6 minutes.
