lol just read this on the bottom of that page "According to the British Freediving Association, participants must 'enter a very relaxed state so as to minimise oxygen consumption' ."

I can see how David Blaine may have had an unfair advantage here. He's near comatose at the height of his performance.

"Mr Colat was allowed to breath pure oxygen for ten minutes before the feat yesterday..."

yep..

but still I think half of his brain cells must be dead.. ;D

divers who collect oysters or sponges go as deep as 30-35 meters which require 4-5 mins..
and its not easy to keep breath in those depths  because of extra pressure..
