David Blaine teaches others how to freedive

[Jorg]

I also twittered this one, but because not everybody is following Shark Freediving on Twitter, I thought this was interesting enough to post it in a seperate post on Deeperblue.

Timothy Ferris (Author of 4 hour workweek) learns how to hold his breath by David Blaine How to Hold Your Breath Like David Blaine, World Record Holder (and Now, Me)

"How to not freedive"

 

[Kars]

Yep not a safe 'report'. With many sheeple copying and testing it out without any in water educated assistance. The only safety feature that was mentioned is the tabbing and answering.

How many minutes did he suck on pure O2 before this stunt?

Over 20 minutes. Check out Blaine's [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Blaine"]Wikipedia Page[/ame]. It's in the Guiness Records section.

Don't get me wrong, I believe he is a great athlete, but he's also kind of a tool.
