Static Apnea. Traditional Cache

The discipline in which a person holds their breath under water for as long as possible. When we saw this feature at the new Industrial Area in Shelly Beach we knew that we could create a cache that is unusal and very entertaining.

30 May 2012, Tom Sietas, a 35 year old German Free Diver competed with former record holder the Brazilian Ricardo Bahia to set a new record for the Guiness World Record by not inhaling for 22.22 minutes.

Sietas has broken his own records on multiple occasions for the event, officially known as STATIC APNEA, since he first started doing in in 2000.  Sietas stated that he does not eat for five hours before carrying out the stunts to slow down his metabolism.  He has a lung capacity that is 20% larger than the average for a person of his size and his "talent" was first noticed by his Scuba diver instructor who noticed his ability to hold his breath.

Please ensure that you seal the container well before replacing.
