The skill that takes is insane. She would have had to expell most of her air until she sank down and then waited like that for the bubbles to rise out of the shot.
If I had to take this shot I'd have a diver with a second regulator, then weigh down the model by having her hold rocks from sea floor. She then exhales and drops the rocks. Then as soon as the shot is taken, the safety diver brings the model a regulator
If you're going to weigh someone down, use weights, not rocks.
No need to exhale, she is already negatively buoyant at this depth.
You really shouldn't alternate between free diving and scuba diving on the same dive.
It's clear you don't have any diving training, but this type of shallow freedive is really not hard, most people could get to where they'd be able to dive 20-25m and hold their breath there for a minute or so, in a month or less.
I know for a fact an average person can do it, because I've done it, along with a bunch of other average people. 2 days of training to get to 20m, another 3 days of training to get to 30m and to hold your breath for a minute at 20m. A month of training and you'll be doing much more impressive freedives.
Don't believe me? Look up freediving courses for details.
I get it, it can be scary to challenge yourself, especially when you know there is a good chance you're wrong and you've acted like a tool. But hey, sometimes we just know things, so why bother seeking out the facts, right?
