10 minute involuntary breath hold

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.

lol! rofl yeah poor thing.. that was a helluva long time to be trapped..
 
Pretty scary...But in no part of the article does it say she was holding her breath. Indeed the references in the bottom say "scubadiver sucked in to a pipe survives".

I don't think a "mundane" person would survive a 10 minute breath hold, especially while in panic
 


its amazing what the body can do when the adrenaline rushes.. my brother stopped a machine from falling on someone's hand one day. It would have sliced it off if he hadn't.
It took four guys to lift that machine under normal circumstances.
 
Hmm I somehow start to disbelieve that pipe-story.

Its said that she has been sucked in and she could escape when she reached a canal. That means that she escaped through an opening which physically makes a suction at the other end of the pipe impossible

:hmm
