and stupidity

Nataluxx Nah, pushing to dangerous levels to become a better version of yourself isn’t really stupid imo.

@@richtofen4888 hitting dangerous level would change that opinion

So even if they manage to stand unaided at first, any intervention is a disqualification?

Yes, exactly

Yes, exactly. that’s why the safety’s put their hands up when he surfaces

100÷ agree, the ethical thing to do would be to admit that you're not well

Weren't the ones in the first video a bit slow to react?

If everyone thought like that records would never be broken.

It`s physically impossible to inhale during a blackout when your body is shutting down. You could inhale water while coming back to consciousness and your head`s still submerged. Also it`s protocol in competitive apnea to allow the athlete to recover by himself without assistance (assuming he didn`t completely lost consciousness). A samba/blackout stricken athlete can still get the green card, if he recovers completely and within a certain period of time. The judge is there to access the situation and signal the safety divers accordingly. In some of the clips, you can see the judge signalling the safety divers to back off. It does look dramatic, but it ain`t that big of a deal in a controlled environment.

@@johnv1684 agree

@@gabriellaclaudia440 me too

It represents the fast heart beating.

Your comment applies to 99% of diving videos lol.

May be a touch jolly for ppl on the verge of death.

Its Samba time = lose consciousness bcuz you tried to hold out for longer than your body can

Thank you for your view😎

Thanks!

Besides the shaking, I think the other big sign that a blackout is coming is if they exhale. The safety people are waiting to intervene in a lot of these instances because they're in competitions. If the diver can recover on their own (indicated by removing their goggles and nose plug and making the ok symbol) fast enough without assistance, the dive is deemed successful. It is a failure if they need help of any sort, so they normally only intervene if the diver actually blacks out, or if they are in a bad enough way that they are clearly not going to start breathing and regain control in time to record a successful attempt.

Not true

They are trying their best time of course... the problem with static apnea is that they had probably hyperventilated too much... that’s why failure comes without them even noticing... in normal conditions you can’t really reach failure because your instinct to breath is much stronger

@@thefreedriver89 So if you don't hyperventilate too much, then there's no reason you'd pass out?

@@josephmcdonagh8389 You pass out anyway, if you go over your limit. The problem is that after a while your head is not clear.

Y

That water be nasty though

It was necessary.It was just a whistle to say to the other people that something is wrong

Pry??

45 seconds is nothing i can hold my breath for a minute and 10 and i havent taken any free diving course

My PB is 5 minutes

9 months

1 min?

Lmfy agreed

I mean the point of the sport is not to get a blackout. They know it

Nah you don't get poisoned from swallowing water, not within like 2 seconds after swallowing. Also exhaling water is a sign of an oncoming blackout.

The same is in 7:10. Wtf? Rules? When freediver has any problem, buddy must take him save and care about him. To protect his face before crash into the pool wall! Not push up their arms like "not me, not me!" .Horrible organisation

It’s protocol to allow the diver to attempt to recover. If you are blacked out, your body shuts down and you cannot inhale water. The judge quickly signals to rescue the diver and she is swiftly saved. Don’t talk about what you don’t know.

😳😳why

:O do not say that it is their dream
