Re: Tom Sietas Static Wr Attempt

comedy :-)

who cares whether he beats his own records in 2 second increments or not? and what's the purpose of speculating about that being no coincidence? those are ridiculously long breath-holds no matter what. and surely there is no requirement that he must announce a record attempt every time he is capable of it.

on the other hand, from behind a desk things probably look different. so carry on ;-)

Re: Tom Sietas Static Wr Attempt

Big congratulations for Tom's hold. I've seen a big swim get disqualified for touching and it's a frustrating thing. The most frustrating part is the fact that it's not your fault and is so avoidable. Hopefully he'll come back just as strong, if not stronger.

Good luck for Saturday Tom! Let's see those records tumble!

Re: Tom Sietas Static Wr Attempt

Great Tom!, well done, Thank you!

You must be having an internal clock to do the exact same impressive 10:12!

- Like watersmile I'm too wandering what you managed in training, though I tend to think it's over 11' because of your 'publick-performance-margin' strategy.

Hartsliche glückwunchen! You deserve a big cake with 10,12 candles!

Love, Courage and Water!

Kars

Re: Tom Sietas Static Wr Attempt

Awesome Tom! I knew you had it in you...

Some things you can do in 10'12":

-drink 10 shots of vodka (1 per minute)
-take a quick nap
-get married (in Vegas)
-lose all your money at a high stakes poker table (in Vegas)
-have sex (a quickie, anyway)
-float face down in a pool with lots of people watching you
