hey MT-ers.. im so so so curious.. how long can u actually hold ur breath?
hehe.. my personal record is 2minutes 50 seconds.. my friends are around there
too.. coz they say when we hold breath for more than 3 minutes, the brain will
not have enuf oxygen and will be partially damaged.. that is the reason i
stopped after 2.50minutes.. hehe..
I think my max record would have to be maybe 1 minute and 50 secounds. I think
I might have been able to go down longer but I don't really keep track when I am
under water or something like that. But I stayed under once long enough to
scare the crap out of my mom so that means it could be longer than what I
thought. Ahh whatever I'll stop rambling.
my personal best is 3 mins 33 secs.... previus rec before that was 2min
35....^_^ and first time ever doing it was 1 min 30 secs...
but thats all on land. in the water, i tried to hold my breath once and it was
only 40 secs. At least its enough to go 1 and a half lengths of a olympic sized
pool underwater.
and they say its 4 mins that you have permanent brain damage....=P (but then i
wonder how deep sea divers do it for 8 minutes o_O)

woahh.. *scrutinize Valcrion and see if he is normal* hehe.. i really dun dare
to hold more than 3 mins although i could.. then u're the bez here, Valcrion..!
hehe.. yeah, i cant hold my breath too long too underwater.. especially if it
goes deeper.. =P btw, that's wad i have been told.. they could breathe
underwater somehow, and can still supply oxygen to their brain.. cool huh.. next
time i see that kind of person, i will check whether they developed gills or
not, Kashoku... hehe..
Quote by sh1nj1tsuThe world record is
held by Tom Sietas of Germany who stayed under for 8 minutes, 47 seconds!
I get a mere fraction of that. but was much better when I
swam.
shouldnt he be brain dead? lol....
im not going to do over 3 mins again.... i felt dizzy after that. but 2.5 mins
is a "comfortable" amount of time for me.
He was a freediver which are well known for holding their breaths for long
periods of time. In addition, they typically lower their heatrates to around
10-15 beats per minute, which greatly reduces the amount of oxigen taken from
the lungs.

hmm.. now i wanna noe how to lower my heart rates.. coz that is the only way to
increase my time of holding breath.. hehe.. btw sh1nj1tsu, r u a swimmer or
diver?
In a life or death situation, I think we can hold our breath for over four
minutes. Granted it being a life or death situation so hopefully nobody on here
ever gets to test that one out...
I never really timed myself because it varies, some days I can go much longer
than on other days. I can do it for pretty long though- benefit of being a flute
player.
Just timed: 3:26
Required time for a Nato Navy Sniper: 4:30
When i was in the army 2 years ago they used to make us stay
under the water in a pool and if we came out to breath in less than 4
minutes they would shoot at us with caustuc bullets (feels like a punch )

I think you've got too much 'freetime'
.
Can't hold my breath for that long to be honest.
i think about 1 minute.......
hey if you keep practising, you will be able to set a record in the guiness Book of records....
haha.. like i told u.. im afraid to hold my breath for more than 3 minutes.. =P
although it's possible what's the point?? i can do 30 secs top, myself
Lol this def one of the fun thread :P
1 and half minutes at top!! cannot hold any longer, haha, actually sometime it depends on our moods
1 and half too
cya
not very long
15-30sec -- i can't do w/o O2!!
haha... but so many ppl can do around 30 minutes underwater.. they say they actually can breathe underwater.. ((wonder how to do that)).. hehe..
That would be weird, bet they developed gils.

I think about 1 min and a little more. That's the best I can do.

thanks! that explains why they can hold their breaths for so insanely long. o_O
