Free Fall

2010-10-30T18:11:00.001+02:00

World champion freediver Guillaume Nery performs a "base jump" at Dean's Blue Hole at the Bahamas, the deepest blue hole in the world.
This video is entirely real except for the fact that he did not reach the bottom of the blue.
It plunges 202 meters (663 ft) which makes it impossible to reach without breathing assistance.
In April 2010, William Trubridge broke a free-diving world record in the blue hole reaching a depth of 92 meters (302 ft) without the use of fins.
Anyway, enjoy this peace of art.
