He started at 0:07 and finished at 3:07 with a total distance of 177 meters. This means he swam at 0.983 meters per second or 2.2 miles per hour. Just in case anyone was wondering.

*THAT'S A STRANGE LOOKING FISH ...*

I held my breath from one side to the other side of a swimming pool and I was one of 5 people to do it and I thought I was special so I looked up longest held breath while swimming and found this

[adam.jacksn]

My brother tried this and now he’s been there for 3 days. So proud of hom

[Hunyango_]

his technique is so beautiful to watch! synced with the calming music

[joshkrispin]

This is sheer will power. I’ve only done 70 meters in one go in a competitive pool and I almost passed out

[gigawertz]

I can hold my breath for literally forever, but then I just stop moving...

[chronicawareness]

this guy would be the best at escaping pirates and swimming far enough away to not get shot

[daext]

Poor guy can't enjoy any regular size swimming pools in the world. Way too SMALL.

[WellToastedBagel]

This man is insane. I thought 20 feet was impressive as a young lad, and this man trained to do that 29 times over. Crazy what people are capable of with enough dedication.

[alanahallison]

Do you ever look at a comment and wished you wrote it instead

[himanshukansal]

Well the guy shooting him also breaks the record😂😂

[mariopizzaparty]

Imagine if he had a leg cramp half way through

[tamaraharris]

Wow, he has wonderfully powerful lungs! People are amazing! I love this.

[radoaron]

i can do it for 28 minutes. but i'll stay there for a while after that. :D

[PhantomDogman]

Of course it would be easier/faster using those thing (what are those?) than without those.

[guiltyuntilproveninnocent.]

I’d only respect this record from someone swimming without anything attached to their body.

[slimelover]

hello random person scrolling through the comments have a great day and be safe

[frederickp.]

I can do that...here, hold my cigarette

[hudmaughan]

As a competitive swimmer in my youth and spear diver, I was able to swim these same distances, wish I thought about world records back then. It just never occurred to me to do this as a competition, only ever as Fun
