Russian seconds are slightly longer than the standard ones - just like Russian miles (7.5km). Since the childhood I've been taught that in Russia (resp. in the USSR) everything is bigger and better (resp. the biggest and the best), so it certainly must be true. This case only confirms it.
Or maybe because Russians use Julian calendar  Still, it is amazing performance and I congratulate to Natalia too  Last edited by trux; April 26th, 2006 at 15:48.

Apologies. It does seem the original news item was wrong. It has now been corrected.
Thanks!

When training with Aharon Solomon's earlier this year, we discussed how the Russians were going to start destroying the current WR's in all freediving disciplines - seems as though his predictions are coming to pass.
Well done!
