Cannot say how many times I have watched this video. Literally it got me through some rough nights years ago while in college. Truly gives the feeling that I am freediving. Thank you!!!

By far the best video on KZfaq..EVER!!! Well done Daan, you captured the essence of the sport perfectly. Thanks for giving this to the world :)

Very special… love your work! Also just amazing new fotos from Vertical Blue 2016 currently going on.

Prachtige plek! Ik monovin nu 1jaar op mezelf, en ik droom vaak om op zulke locaties te kunnen duiken... helaas, ik heb niemand die me ademhalingstechnieken kan leren. Ik heb genoten van deze video! Thx for sharing! Jasmijn

Great video Daan. It's a pity KZfaq's codec does such a poor job with smooth gradients, those big flickering digital blocks are really distracting. The softness and pacing of video matches the music well. What lenses, camera, and video bitrate were you using? Magic Lantern by any chance? I love the flying shots, through the dust, along the fish and divers. In the end you used I think a different cam's shots that were much more contrasty with maybe less dynamic range, such as the Go-pro. If it was Goproshots, maybe protune may offer better flexibility in post, so you can grade and align the different shots a bit better in post. I love the steady horizontal fly around George, as well as the unsuited shot of William. The chase of William down is a cool idea, but I love to see that much closer and personal, like I was holding on to his foot. Selecting and matching the shots to match an idea, song, pacing, etc. is a really challenging thing to do. I think your contrasty shots at the end are beautiful in in their own right, but their contrast and saturation do not match the overall softness. Daan I really love your work and therefore I donate these words, I hope you can find some value in them. A big hug from the lonely Netherlands. K

song title? magic movie btw! thanks, this made my morning:)

No thank you sir, the locals say the blue holes have BIG as in other worldly big Octopus and 16-20 foot tiger sharks. many divers have gone missing by the blue holes in the Bahamas, but given the ever changing currents and never finding anything it is probably local legend but not beyond possible.
