Greeting from Venezuela
Yesterday Carlos Costa got the 135m varible weight reord, but the official topside camera man stopped his camera at 3m mins, rather than 4mins. Therefore he will have to redo the dive on Wednesday!!

Stig doesnt like me talking to much about what I see.
However I feel free to describe everything I see on the official attempts.
And I can say that you are right on target.
At his second dive he was fit. Did the dive. But celebrated to early (see above). If there would have been a tag he could have delivered it. But the dive was validated by touching the plate (videoed).
(I keep telling him that he should go FREE, since he is not totally happy with the LMC rule).
On his last dive he was tired! Complained that his muscles where soar. So yes, He probably could have pulled it of with more rest.
But on the other hand - when is it ever perfect. There so many factors involved. And I have a feeling that most records are done with less than perfect conditions.
