Longest breath hold....

In continuing with the topic let me ask whats your longest timed breath hold. Mine was 2 minutes 45 seconds (in a hot tub).

If you lie prone in a pool that has a comfortable temperature and "zone out" ......you would be surprized how long you can hold your breath. When I was 20 or 21 I used to be able to do 3:40......I'm 20 years older so I'm not real sure

Breath hold

A friend clocked me at 3:55 in a pool, but I haven't been able to duplicate it since. I can consistently do over 3 though.

Try giving the 'ol lady head in a hot tub. After she grabs yer head, ya better start growing gills. Scarry shit. If you survive, you will be able to pluck a fly out of mid air with chopstix!

Longest Breath hold.

Best time: 3:30 to 80 fsw.

Now: 3 minutes

Eventually, depriving my brain of oxygen for such periods of time will kill off one too many brain cells, but I can't think of a better way to go.
