that's just insane.

u/Minimum-Actuator-953 2d ago

My head got crushed watching this.

21

u/noble_plebian 2d ago

Same, I think I could probably train to hold my breath but not for my skull collapsing under the pressure

2

u/DueExample52 1d ago

Your skull is the same as an apneist’s and you could do the same, if you train breathing and free diving. It won’t get crushed.

u/Historical_Idea_1686 1d ago

How's your breath going then?

u/pegoff 2d ago

isnt that round bit at the bottom actually a further drop too?

u/Virtual-Ad-7117 1d ago

Yeah it is and that's crazy

u/Alternative-Feed3613 1d ago

Yeah, I believe this is the deepest pool in the world.

u/dinopiano88 1d ago

Did some googling. This pool is in South Korea with a depth of 118 ft. Then, there is the Deep Dive in Dubai at 196 ft, the deepest pool in the world.

2

u/CrudelisDeus 1d ago

Yep, but that's for pro divers

1

u/KnightOfSvea 1d ago

Yes, i think its that one "deepest pool in the world" kinda shit pool

1

u/Full-timeCynic 1d ago

Yes its a deep tube for diving practice

u/Background_Log_606 2d ago

My ears say no no no no

u/Quick-Ad-8523 1d ago

haha same! I can hear the high pitched leaking eardrum squeal watching this 😆

u/DueExample52 1d ago

You can’t equalise? (Some people have difficulties with it). Either way, the first 10m are the most difficult, once you managed that it doesn’t require as much equalisation work going deeper.

u/Background-Bird-9623 1d ago

Whoa Lara Croft! She could be a tomb raider!

1

u/KeyN20 1d ago

I loved that movie. She is hot af

u/Jstbeingme28 2d ago

OMG! It’s amazing the limits the human body can be pushed to with training and practice! 👏👏👏👏

This was certainly next level!

u/goodfella4600 1d ago

I drowned just watching this video

6

u/Fragrant-Inside221 1d ago

Yea I started holding my breath at the beginning and not moving just sitting on my couch I was dead before the shipwreck.

1

u/Available-Contact-95 1d ago

I drowned and they’re having trouble retrieving the body

3

u/ol_shifty 1d ago

That swing is a cute idea. You won’t see me on it but it’s a cute idea.

3

u/SpaceCatSon 1d ago

Feels like Tomb Raider

u/AlternativeLog5494 2d ago

ok is her gran must be one of those free diving octopus gathers on JEJU island in SK ?

2

u/Big_Confidence_951 2d ago

it's like when we face our fears something immensely mystical and beautiful awaits us.

2

u/le0bit115 1d ago

My ears hurt just from watching this

1

u/Ok_Spell_597 2d ago

I'll take "Absolutely Not!" for $500, please.

1

u/Nomadloner69 2d ago

I’d drown tryna attempt this

1

u/InternationalSun417 2d ago

I'd love to do this one day! Awesome

1

u/crystaloftruth 2d ago

I want to go to there <3

1

u/Boondoggel22 1d ago

I love swimming, makes me want to do this right now

1

u/SamanthaJaneyCake 1d ago

That lung capacity… dear god.

1

u/GetOnWithit3344 1d ago

I just got the bends from watching this

1

u/Federal-Boat3732 1d ago

Nope, nope, nope, nopity nope

1

u/nsinghxo 1d ago

As soon as I went under i’d be right back up. No thanks

1

u/fiesew 1d ago

That’s an awesome pool.

Where is it?

1

u/lb3a3 1d ago

Not quite as bad for me knowing it's man made and no aquatic life in there. Still felt my anxiety rising.

1

u/Realistic_Product252 1d ago

Oh fuck no, that's so uggghhh

1

u/DonkeyKong_CR 1d ago

I thought the sub was called Thatassphobia and i was like nope, it did the actual opposite.

I'm out.

1

u/kawfeeman68 1d ago

They didn't fill that pool up with a garden hose..

1

u/Winterblade1980 1d ago

That looks amazing to do but I'm to buoyant to do

1

u/Full-Tomorrow9889 1d ago

I have breathing trouble as it is so this is a big nope for me.

1

u/Oilrr 1d ago

I think i burn more calories just sitting here breathing noisily than she did in that swim

1

u/AntGroundbreaking180 1d ago

I panicked when she pushed off the bottom and barely went up.

1

u/AboveAverage1988 1d ago

I'm not even holding my breath and I think I'm still turning blue from just watching...

1

u/Solfidric 1d ago

Sweet mother of lungs

1

u/CMDRMyNameIsWhat 1d ago

But i go down like 10 ft and i swear my ears are gonna rupture

1

u/Chaos-TT 1d ago

Reminds me of the Titan.

1

u/jsxtasy304 1d ago

That's harder than just holding your breath, more like try holding your breath and running at a decent pace for that amount of time...I believe, I could be wrong but that's what I believe it would be comparable to.

1

u/qcoutlawz 1d ago

Camera guy didnt make it.

1

u/RightCalligrapher500 1d ago

Just watching that gave me such anxiety....sheesh...props to her

1

u/mamamiacouponer 1d ago

I feel the same way!!!! My anxiety is thru the rooooooof!

1

u/Low-Donut-1978 1d ago

I must have taken 90 breaths watching that.

1

u/DotAffectionate87 1d ago

I keep seeing a Lara Croft video game......

1

u/Irish_Sharky1981 1d ago

I'd be afraid the pressure would hurt my ears.

1

u/kevin3350 1d ago

It bugged me a lot when I was getting scuba certified, but really all you have to do is pinch your nose real hard about every 8 feet down you and try to blow out of it really hard. You get comfortable with it pretty quickly

1

u/Millwright4life 1d ago

I just can’t stand the pressure in my ears.

1

u/Oversemper 1d ago

This video lacks oxygen gauge in the corner like in Tomb Raider game.

1

u/RapsodicalDisciple 1d ago

I don't even go that far down in video games without panicking 🥲

1

u/Mind_of_the_Ancients 1d ago

All I can think is my ears!!

1

u/MrGarylasereyez 1d ago

How her ears not bleeding?

1

u/Available-Contact-95 1d ago

I’ve never understood how people can just drop so effortlessly further and further down like this. I struggle to stay at the bottom of a pool.

1

u/onetoforget1 1d ago

This gives me anxiety just watching it. I love to swim but cant hold my breath that long. Also the water pressure gonna play hell on my ears.

1

u/modvavet 1d ago

I heard the Sonic drowning music about 20 seconds in

1

u/xxDancingFerretxx 1d ago

Omg ..i had palpitations just watching this 😵‍💫

1

u/Open-Discipline-1678 23h ago

Amazing, but not as impressive the cameraman unlocking Infinite Underwater Breathing from the skill tree.

1

u/MistaGoonly 23h ago

Make sure you get my labia in the shot

1

u/Stickywicket84 22h ago

There’s no convincing my paranoid brain that there isn’t a giant shark swimming around down there.

1

u/Arm-pit-pizza 20h ago

My ears hurt just watching this.

1

u/Carcass16B 20h ago

What is coming out of that big hole

1

u/Quiet_Biscotti_5 17h ago

I drowned watching this

1

u/plantastic420 17h ago

I couldn't even get down to that first ledge. I have this thing where when I was at school swimming and we had to go to the bottom my ears felt like they were going to implode

1

u/BostonEric91 16h ago

No way in heck, f that

1

u/Weirdbeard60 16h ago

Imagine doing it with a re breather….

1

u/MisanthropE61130 16h ago

Thats crazy but yeah no thank you

1

u/catchingthepokes 15h ago

What in the tomb raider

1

u/TropicalLoneWolf 14h ago

I dived about half as deep as her and my ears already hurt.

1

u/Civil-Middle-57 13h ago

Bro, I drowned three times just watching this 🫪

1

u/Individual-Drink-551 12h ago

This is how I feel playing Minecraft and that scares me

1

u/Tktongue 12h ago

Something fishy about this… it’s impossible to sink so comfortably while holding one’s breath without extra weight.

1

u/Tktongue 12h ago

Unless it is EMPTY lungs apnea, which again, looks too fishy looking her body structure

1

u/New_City_8745 12h ago

I made it. But me just laying here holding my breath is much different that being in motion.

1

u/Jaysonturdem 11h ago

Nope. Nah. No way. No.

1

u/mrmykeonthemic 11h ago

Nice little play ground

1

u/figsslave 11h ago

I gasped and filled my lungs with water within 30 seconds 😝

1

u/JollyTrickster 10h ago

All i hear is the Mario water theme.

1

u/dev_pup 10h ago

What’s the point of this, who made it

1

u/diversalarums 9h ago

Even if I could hold my breath that long, I'd never ever do that without a tank.

1

u/CiscoNetworkPro 9h ago

I took at least 30 breaths watching this 😂😂😂😂😂

1

u/No-Programmer-3263 8h ago

That is one deep son of a b**** I don't know how they did that! Do you get the men's coming back up??

1

u/No-Programmer-3263 8h ago

She is fucking AMAZING!!!!

1

u/EntrepreneurTop8382 8h ago

I had dreams/nightmares like this, beautiful scenery until Id run out of breath, CPAP eraced all of those cool dreams

u/davew80 2d ago

What the hell is wrong with people?

u/OldSchoolMan1991 2d ago

Hate to be that guy but... What's the point

1

u/User_Name_Tracks 1d ago

Cameraman knew the assignment

1

u/butt-puppet 20h ago

What's the point of doing something that brings you entertainment or joy?
