David Blaine Holds His Breath 17 Minutes!

This is just crazy, David Blaine has just set a new Guinness record for holding the breath for an unbelievable time of 17 minutes and 4 seconds! I repeat, this is just crazy! I’m not able ot hold my breath even for a minute, before starting to feel dizzy.

The feat appeared in Oprah, and they showed us Blaine preparing for the upcoming event, training at a pool on Grand Cayman Island on lowering his heart speed rate. It was even more difficult on TV to lower the rate beacuse of the tension.

His heart rate was high during all the event, but his CO2 tolerance training allowed him to stay underwater. This is yet another proof that we can make anything we want to.

“I really thought I was not going to make it,” he told me afterwards. “At minute 12 I felt the pain coming, and by minute 14 it was overwhelming. This was a whole other level of pain. I still feel as if somebody hit me in the stomach with the hardest punch they could.”

Wow simply wow.

Those were the news on David Blaine.
