For school I need to read a biography or an autobiography. I think it would be nice if I could read the life story of a famous freediver, if it exists. It needs to be a book, not an online document. Does anyone know if there is something like that? I found on the site of Patrick Musimu that he wrote a book but I can't find a shop where I can buy it. If I google it I only find a post on his site with the synopsis...
 
Some freediving biographies are listed here:
biography @ APNEA.cz

But there are more of them - not all are properly categorized with this keyword. Besides those listed, look for books about Mayol, Pelizzari, Pipin, and certainly some others too
 
In french?
Pelo or Mayol:
[ame=http://www.amazon.fr/Homo-Delphinus-Jacques-Mayol/dp/2723407322]Homo Delphinus: Amazon.fr: Jacques Mayol: Livres[/ame].
[ame=http://www.amazon.fr/LHomme-mer-Umberto-Pelizzari/dp/2700395786/ref=pd_sim_b_1]L'Homme et la mer: Amazon.fr: Umberto Pelizzari, Diane Ménard: Livres[/ame]

Or a comprehensive "Homme poissons" with various biographies:
Livre : Hommes poissons, Portraits de.... Robert Margaillan, Enzo Maiorca - 9782737332746
 
English would be easier. I can speak French a little bit but it goes a lot more fluent in English. But thank you already Trux and spaghetti !
 
one on luic leferme would be nice. or somebody earlier maybe Robert croft?
