Herbert Nitsch 214m News from Greece

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 90 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
Yeah Benny, the 70m stop is an option, but we feel he only needs it when he fills the HF.CC.EqEx at shallower depths... because this will bring on blood shift so quickly due the the huge (proportional) pressure increase .

By the way... Eric, I have been playing with Proper Mouthfill technique (P.M.T)..
How do you cope with the added pressure from P.M.T?
Do you ever have problems with swallowing during P.M.T?

Great stuff. He looks more like an underwater torpedo or science vessel that a freediver , but nevertheless great stuff and more to come by the looks of it.
GO HERBERT GO !!!!!

Nice 1 minute safety stop , looks like he realy understands what he is doing, RESPECT !!
 
Now I think of it, what will no-limit in the future look like. A human body completely encased (except for the face) in a metal torpedo, computer controlled descend and lift at 20 m/s...................hmmm

ask any woman!!!! :)

HANNAH? ANYONE??? ANYONE??

(btw Sara's records have still not been ratified by the BFA as British Records, we haven't heard from the judges or seen video)

I think we are going to have to change the name of this discipline from 'No Limits' to 'Where is the Limit?'

Great going team. You guys inspire me. Keep it up and the world will have a HUGE record to break!:)
 
OK so we went out today and did a deep dive (-195m) all systems went well.. better than yesterday when a few minor things went wrong.

Herbert was feeling good and his equalisation was good...

(After the dive he told me that he could have gone deeper... and wished that today was the record dive...)

We will go paintballing tonight.. fun! Except Herbert who is under strict instructions to rest well... yeah right!!!!

Tomorrow is Media day, a few shallow dives and lots of photos...
