Wow Branko, huge congratulations. When will the world record attempt be

 

[trux]

Congrats, Branko! Unbelievable! Was it officially sanctioned by AIDA, by CMAS, or was it just an unofficial record attempt?

 

[Branko Petrovic]

Official record attempt. but I had no A level judge so it will count I think only as a national record by AIDA. Officiall WR will be as soon as I get money to pay trip for the A level judge.

 

[trux]

OK, great, I'll put it up in the ranking. Can you tell me the place and the date? I suppose it was yesterday (8/1/2011), was it?

 

[Kajojek]

Crazy! :duh Huge congratulations and good luck on your future record(s)

 

[Branko Petrovic]

Actually it was 7.1.2012. Belgrade, Serbia
I wanted to post it yesterday, but I was really busy selebrating with my friends ;-)

 

[trux]

OK, it is up in the ranking: http://apnea.cz/ranking.html?STA+pid:1825

And I posted a short blog entry about it too: APNEA.cz - Blog

I think it should now be rather easy to get a sponsor for the official WR attempt. Just contact some companies, they would have to be stupid to refuse you.

BTW, Branko, due to some data loss earlier last year, I am missing some of your previous individual records. So please look at it, and please send me the details of the missing performances

 

[Branko Petrovic]

ok. i will thanks
well we will see, what I really want to to is no limit, variable, and FIM!
when I promised to some companies some records, if they help me, they tought I am crasey. I hope they will listen me now, but I can always get back to spearfishing.
once a spearfisherman, always a spearfiserman

Largest Static apnea ever by Branko Petrovic 12:11min - YouTube

Congratulations Branko
You are no.1 now , everybody knows that !!!!!



ps: thanks

 

[Dinosaurus]

Absolutely huge congrats!

 

[pingshui]

Congratulations, 12 minutes is such a long time!

I have a request though: Could you change whatever music you used on the video? We cannot view this video in Germany due to some licensing issues with the music companies, GEMA in this case. I fear other countries might have the same problem.

 

[bobdonny]

wow¬!
Awesome!

 

[Kars]

Wow Branko, you're the new friendly giant!

I hope you get to understand how and why and what is working for you so well, so we the whole freediving community can learn and grow!

Hopefully You'll get some good sponsors soon so you can train and explore humanities abilities more!

 

[Siku]

Truly amazing!

I would joust like to thank to Eric Fattah and Vedrana Vidovic, their informations really helped me! More than you can imagine! Now with new perspective and aproach to static... fells like there are no limits!!!

I love the fact that you make it sound like it is so easy for you!

I'm sure we'd all like to know what new perspective and approach is that makes you feel there are no limits... Or is it top secret? ;-)

 

[Waterysmile]

Beyond impresssive!

When did the contractions start and how did the static feel?

 

[mattbigblue]

Congratulations Branko!
That is huge:duh

one question: did You warmup before this static??(I mean, did You do any little statics before), or was it first breath hold that day?
