The neck weight helps him to level his body while his lungs are full of air. Otherwise to compensate the extra buoyancy he would have to swim through the water on an angle.
@terence2180 they have invented cameras are on a long stick... the screen is on one end (dry) and the camera is on the other (not dry) so that swim coaches can stay on land and still record underwater.
My best was 75m and turn, I had to go up and take a breath after. If you are a swimmer and you practice you can achieve 50m easily. Always with supervision of course.
I'm a novice swimmer, last night i managed to do 25 meters underwater, withouth fins, and it took me a month of practice to get there... 112 m, sounds like a loooot of practice:) Good job!
sorry, but I guess it'll be very difficult to become a freediver, as I'm only 15 years old, and am not a freedived, but managed to swim 50m without fins. 4 or 5 try though. keep working
hes under like 150 pounds of water pressure, has a weight around his neck , isnt breathing, and is swimming with no fins its only normal to turn red while enduring all of that lol
don use tht pool, the divide in between where the deep end starts ruins ur swim, forget distance covered, just disturbs the rythm and motion..i hv the same problem,
Try to keep your rest and glide phase after 75 meters. Also I think at that point you were swimming rather close to the floor causing your armstroke to be wide and not so effecient. I think 0.5-1kg around the waist would give a better glide and a more relaxed way of swimming.
I would be dead by now.

@bruceritter43 The deeper the water the more efficient the oxygen transfer in the lungs i believe. More pressure to work with.
