I heard on the radio that the world record for staying underwater was broken yesterday - over 15 minutes! How do they train for this? Do they just practice or are there exercises, special nutrition or anything else?
These guys meditate a lot. A very large portion of this sport is mental. They can reduce their heart beat to just a few beats per minutes. And of course they're also in ultra shape.
