Man sets record for holding breath underwater

[foolsrushin87]

talk about ego just to damage your body.

[LoveeIsLouderr]

0:42 LOL had fun down there?

[iampolarbearfood]

this guy must be argonian.

[qqwlyd]

Aww, I can only hold my breath for 90 seconds, supermerged.

[steelermia]

so who holds the real record .. this guy or david merlini ?

[djtostensonjr]

@steelermia It depends on what you consider the "real" world record. This guy set the AIDA world record which is regulated by a set of competitive rules. In this case, he is not allowed to use technical aids to improve his performance. Where David Merlini, now Ricardo da Gama Bahia, is the Guinness WR which allows for these aids such as sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber to simulate thin air, then breath pure O2(oxygen) right before making the attempt.

[8o8inSquares]

Not world record anymore. David Blaine hold his breath for 17 min.

[testiclecrusher2]

@8o8inSquares Static apnea is without inhaling oxygen beforehand which is what the frenchman did. Plus David Blaine is an illusionist so he more than likely had a barely visible tube supplying him with oxygen through his breath holding attempt.

[thecurse23]

I think the German man they were referring to was a guy named Herbert Nitsch. this guy may have beat his record, but he only did it by staying still and not using any energy. Herbert Nitsch was able to hold his breathe for 9 minutes while swimming through the water. I think that beats the 11 minute record any day

[juki0h]

wait i thought david blaine helf his breath like 16 minutes or something like that?

[MindlessHeresy]

He must be half Argonian..

[stefanlgallegos]

my name is Stefan also!! :D

[killerdec21]

There are a lot of people who can hold their breath for longer than that, it's just those will be unofficial and never proven, seeing as they are tribesman etc who's lives rely on being able to freedive and fish.

[Spetsop]

@killerdec21

True, I was going to comment on the same thing. I'm not sure about longer though, so far the longest I've heard was about 5-6 mins, but do keep in mind that they are much deeper underwater, and are constantly moving too!

[coleuseight]

I'd be happy if i could go 1 minute...

[Tyremion]

My name is Stefan to! :D

[jiminycricket69]

thats cool and all. but really how is that gona help him in life? is he gona list it on his resume or something? thats about as important as the record for biggest shit taken. ...hahaha wutevs tho. to each their own

[mrtariq182]

@jiminycricket69 Its quite helpful. say you fall off a ship or get put in a situation where a normal guy would drown... He'll be fine. You might also get the worlds biggest shit at that stage but it deffo wont help XD

[table5280]

my record's about a minute

[Xternal47]

broken by david blaine?

[NPI13Productions]

Amazing! Check out my breath hold videos I do a new record every week!

[MAGNETMAN9000]

I got half an hour, with breaks every 20 seconds to breath

[zado2222]

@MAGNETMAN9000 I got two hours ...with breaks every 10 seconds.

[bahamut6667]

lol i can swim 2 laps of a lane pool back and fwords with out taking a breath but i think that like just over 2 min and by that time im ready to pass out lmfao i dunno how he did 11 thats just frikken amazing

[mrkiky]

@bahamut6667 well he stays still so the oxygen supply in his lungs and in his blood is being consumed only by his body functions and his brain. If you swim, your muscles consume most of it. 11 minutes like this doesn't mean he could swim 11 minutes underwater.

[bahamut6667]

@mrkiky yea true i forgot about that lol but it's weird when i stay still i can only hold my breath for like 30 to 40 seconds but moving around i can do it for over 2 min

[mrkiky]

@bahamut6667 I'd assume that's more psychological than anything. Probably just has to do with focus.

[Zumba0babe]

I only know that i can hold my breath for about a minute or something. That man has got a SMASHING PAIR OF LUNGS!!!! LOL x

[mrkanepker]

wtf.. 7mins is sposed to cause brain dmg so idk how this is possible

[mrkiky]

@mrkanepker 7 mins without oxygen to the brain. When you hold your breath you store oxygen in your lungs and use that to "breathe", when that is gone , there still is a little amount left in your blood. When even that is depleted your body will send a signal to the brain telling it it's out of oxygen and the brain will give you a powerful urge to gasp for air. He just doesn't intake new oxygen for 11 minutes. It doesn't mean his brain doesn't get oxygen at all.

[EloRulesTheWorld]

i feel like i'm gonna die after like 30 seconds

[CaptainOmar]

@EloRulesTheWorld

Me too! LMAO

[Irexatron]

1st time fail cuz i sneeze 2/1 min 6 sec 3rd/1min 10 sec 4th/1 min 56/ 5th/2 min 33 and i was gonna die

[Nickname21]

I did a minute and some odd secs..I feel like I was gonna die..LoL

[swoccerfields]

haha it would be sad but incredibly ironic if he dies because somebody drowns him.

[lilwayne80081]

I done about a minute 31 and that was too much for me

[WFFLPWND]

I've gotten up to 5 minutes taking breaths before the thing, but im only 12 and i couldn't do as long if i were moving, the trick is holding completely still, you dont use up as much oxygen if you hold still

[Itamarbo1998]

David blaine is a magician not a swimmer.. he probably has a few air bubbles up his sleeves

[pciz301]

im attempting this rig-

[maybeebabe]

chuck norris never holds his breath his breath holds him

[Asneakyjew162]

try drowning him!

[SHUSHIKID]

Holy shit bro 

[Zankronka1]

I can only do like 1 minute!

[RAWKINTHEFRAGGLE]

My record was 2 minutes 6 seconds when i was a teenager. A month and a half of nothing but swimming really makes your lungs pretty capable. I just tried and i made 1 minute 13 seconds. Still not too bad.

[TheVideosUnited]

i can barly hold mine for a minute... sometimes 2 minutes.

[killerclown789]

He stayed still. A Navy SEAL can hold his breath for 2 minutes while swimming underwater without releasing a single bubble. And that's without months of training just to beat a record.

Also, Navy SEALs can hold their breath until they black out.

[modfon654]

Brandon Olson can do 10x better than that

[iPoohCupCakes]

fuck that Percy Jackson can do better

[Flamma1337]

@iPoohCupCakes So can Michael Jackson

[MegaFreshkid1]

and ummm david blame=17 minutes

[MegaFreshkid1]

why dont the people who say they can hold there breath for so long make a video about it?



[smokey21TEK]

haha 55 seconds beat that

[smokey21TEK]

@NdzDJ  lets see

[AndrosForever]

with a nose that big I would imagine he would miss the air

[THErealUNDEAD1]

my record is -1:00

[bstanart]

@NdzDJ My record is 4 1/2 minutes

[RaMpAgExMoDz]

i have a solid 45 seconds

[roxyhotty556]

Thats true skill

[blueberrycakecz]

two months to recover?! hmm... but it was still awesome i

tried for two minutes and almost fainted

[MRjAvellaneda]

11 effin minutes... doesn't he get bored!?! dang, he should've brought an iPod or something! haha

[StarcraftAlphaBeta]

@MRjAvellaneda Thinking (or listening to music) burns oxygen. Ipod is a bad idea.

[TheSadSadBanana]

@MRjAvellaneda someone stayed under water for 16 minutes like 1 year ago :S

[MiissKeiiko]

agh! My record is only 4:19 seconds.

[NottinghamAzn]

I did it last week and it was 4:03

[emwinslimshadylpmc]

david blaine did up to 17 minute

[codywall9]

Chuck Norris held his breath for 3 days and then went under water to get some air.

[zado2222]

@codywall9 Chuck Norris doesn't hold his breath, it's breath holds Chuck Norris.

[5lakes96]

Mine was 50 seconds. . .

[Arostyle380]

Why will he need 2 months to recover?

[xRIDxBeastx]

Holy fuck!

[oOABACAOo]

stop saying your record is over 2 minutes no one that has watched this video can hold there breath for over 2 minutes its just like when someone says oh my dick is 8 inches and someone say mine is 9 shut the fuck up

[vvolas]

By the way who are trying to hold air sitting in the chairs. Underwater this time decreases by half maybe by 2/3, when i was kid I did that quite a lot.

[zcuzcu]

six months, thirty hours a week, where's my schedule?

[Jsantosishere]

my record was 27 seconds =/

[HeavensValkyrie]

Holy hell 10 min +? I was pretty impressed with my 3 mins 25 sec , guess im just impossibly off.

[ShiningStar1028]

my best is 45 seconds but thats it...

[SuperOclee]

my best is 46 sec lol

[kr4zyk1a]

SON OF POSEIDON .

[lakersman26]

I can hold my breath for one minute and 3 second.. but I would have to use noise in underwater to help me focus.. without the noise I would probably hold my breath for 32 second.. I know weird.

[cheeseEmonster]

i can hold it for.... 20 seconds at most. kill me.

[RobloxzVideoz]

My record is 3 or 2. But 11 its hard to belive!! >:O

[milliondollarswag1]

haha i meant minutes! lol senior moment :P

[milliondollarswag1]

i think he's got invisible gills. 11 friggin seconds?! that's insane!

[louisjb16]

my recors 55 seconds

[Inflameguitar]

1 minute is hard enough now 11!!!! holly shit!!!

[natedgg04]

dats sum bullshit.datz fukin crazy



[101NotTelling]

Haha, my records one minute and twenty three seconds

[unicornrainbow771]

How is that possible? I cant even hold my breath for 20 seconds.

[KoRnL0VeR]

WTF? What about David Blaine...... he got 17 minutes.. lol whatevs I still i give this guy props.

[queeniepie12345]

@KoRnL0VeR lmfaooooooooo

[startingsprinter]

@KoRnL0VeR david blaine is magician, he did it with gadgets or tricks im sure

[MrMellomusic]

I could do that with my eyes closed.

[bugsbunny159]

takes training and anyone can do it.. you have to focus and relax and stuff

[airsoftjunkie2]

naa some guy can do 17 mins

[emotionalpunkboy]

Wait doesn't holding your breath for too long make your brain cells die?

[101NotTelling]

@emotionalpunkboy Hey, random fact but I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that you lose brain cells every time you sneeze. I've never heard that though.

[garchomp1728]

i could hold my breath for 24 minutes,not lying,i even have a video proving it

[MonsterBubbles89]

@garchomp1728 post it.

[garchomp1728]

@MonsterBubbles89 its posted

[MonsterBubbles89]

@garchomp1728 WHATS THE NAME of the vid

[garchomp1728]

@MonsterBubbles89 what vid?

[eve22ant]

mind control victim.

[ficfan1]

OK PEOPLE DON'T SAY ANYTHING IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT!!!!

11min 35 sec IS THE RECORD FOR STATIC APNEA 20min 10 sec is the Guinness word record.

But that is by breathing pure oxygen instead of normal air(ca 21% Oxygen) before the attempt.

So trolls get your facts straight and don't disrespect a man capable of things you can't even get close to.

[marines0777]

the newest record is 17 minutes bro. but thats still good

[profilescythe]

@marines0777 Bro, you have to LISTEN. This is without the oxygen.

[riceboy1001]

The world record is 17

[profilescythe]

@riceboy1001 This is without inhaling pure oxygen before the dive.

[calsbergful]

lithuanian 15 mins

[TheRyansReviewsShow]

the world record is 17 minutes

[Jontreao]

Why would you wanna do something like that?

Just .... why?!

[AGlover24x2]

hes a mermann

[BeatboxSTeoX]

no way and i go underwater for about a minute and i feel like dyiing o.o

[kamikazeboy123]

goodjob niko bellic=)

[mrcardio9r]

I said "Magic trick" before but it's not really a "Magic trick" it's just using PURE oxygen before hand.

The guy in this video is in fact the RECORD holder NOT anyone else you might have heard humors about.

[mrcardio9r]

The world record for holding your breath after inhaling pure oxygen is now Blaine's — 17 minutes and 4 seconds. The record without the pure oxygen, which Blaine failed to break during an attempt last year in Manhattan's Lincoln Center, is 8 minutes and 58 seconds

[skate3745]

@WeLoveSelenaGomezz *passes out*

[ThinkLikeACello]

Ha, Wow. Percy Jackson, (son of Posiedon, God of the Sea) on went for 7 minutes. Damn.

[alexandrelind01]

@ThinkLikeACello read the books first b4 talking shit... He can stay as long as he pleases

[spookybuffalo]

manmaid, wat ta fuck!!?

[MatthewsVideosInc]

no david blaine held it for 17 minutes

[mrcardio9r]

@MatthewsVideosInc

No David Blaine made it "APPEAR" he held his breath for 17minutes. Do some research and you'll discover that what he did was a magic trick. And the magic trick apparently worked pretty good seeing as he obviously fooled some people.

David Blaine is a muscian NOT a World Champion breath holder.

[ShamanRing]

david blaine held his breath for 17 mins :)

[ludzikmarudzik]

@ShamanRing So what? Stig Severinsen did 20 mins 10 sec.

[86753093868121127559]

my record is 2:17 ='(

[QuilavaKing]

My record is 3:03. lol

[TomKennyIsLovely]

That's incredible!

I can barely hold mine for 30 seconds!

[wiiwouldntliketoplay]

@TomKennyIsLovely

Umm thats half of what the normal human range is, do you have asthma?

[TomKennyIsLovely]

@wiiwouldntliketoplay Yes I do :(

[wiiwouldntliketoplay]

@TomKennyIsLovely

That would make sense then.

[Jayz159ify]

@TomKennyIsLovely Theres a new record for 17 minutes by like David Blaine

[KILLERGUN2711000]

I CAN HOLD MY BREATH LONGER THEN ANYONE ITS 2.31 MIN

[XtremeGamer20]

@KILLERGUN2711000 The guy in the video is 11 minutes :P

[1980theone]

My record is 2:24 minutes but not anymore :(:(:(:(:(

[1980theone]

I can hold my breath for 13 SECONDS. And THAT is incredible. But NOW, I can hold it for 1:17 I minute and 17 seconds! Im just 18.

[odracirseraoseia1999]

@1980theone That's ridiculous, you should keep that to yourself.

[1980theone]

@odracirseraoseia1999 really? why?

[Skaurs]

[007Tydog]

WHAT?!?! 11 minutes!!? Holy crap that's amazing!!!

[KosovaHeart]

[daviator78]

Fuck! I bet you that news-reel woman spoke non-stop through the whole damn event - breaking his record by a day and a bit!

[gigibuffonitalian]

[SuperDruidBoy]

OMFG!

[hitmanpr100]

[thesloc]

[ymerej101]

[ehvafan]

[Ele3tricEye]

i wanna see a magician hold their breath this long without cheating

[slylover88]

@Ele3tricEye david blaine did for 17 minutes

[Vitaminnn07]

[taboosun]

I wonder too.

[MsBreBre99]

you suck

[smokingkush420]

@MsBreBre99 you suck

[MsBreBre99]

@smokingkush420 I wasn't talkin to you. I was talkin to this other girl who said this guy sucked! Duh! lol

[trougut]

You're right. It's not a big deal. Know why? Because you didn't do 11 minutes. When you break his record, then it might be a big deal. Good luck , don't drown.

=)

[sourpower96]

lol yeah 14:21

[IAmATampon]

ur an idiot

[nbomb1204]

[MagnusRulerHardt]

@ whoever replied me

No, I mean the max for any human without dropping dead.

[RobertoCarlos3rd]

Everyone hates you magnus. Fact: the world record is 11:35

[MagnusRulerHardt]

Everyone loves me ^^

I know (the world record), but STILL, no matter what you say, scientists say the max is 6 minutes.

[slylover88]

@MagnusRulerHardt scientists said that you could get brain damage after 6 minutes

[MagnusRulerHardt]

@slylover88

Not from what I heard.

[Jockindabeats]

whats the record now? like 17 minutes or something? crazyyy

[IAmATampon]

14:12?

[Glo0myWizard]

the record without pure oxygen is 11:35

with pure oxygen is 19:02
