Herbert Nitsch does it again.. breaks his own 114 meter record with a swim down 120 meters (393 feet) and back.  This is no sled ride.. it's a swim down and back.  CW - for constant weight, which means, what you leave the surface with, you bring back to the surface - to me, the purest form of freediving (well, other than doing it naked, or CWNF, constant weight, no fins).

Can you imagine!  almost 400 feet deep!!  ON a Breath!  Unbelievable!
Most would struggle with 120 feet, let alone 120 meters!  yeah, I'm impressed.

has he been inspected for gills?

running 400 feet and back on land on one breath is hard enough.
