Yesterday Blaine broke the world record for breath-holding with an incredible time of 17 minutes and 4 seconds. He was encased in a water filled sphere-type….thing. Don’t get too excited though, there were a few legal tricks that Blaine used to achieve this time, so don’t expect to be doing this at home. Blaine breathed only pure oxygen for 30 minutes before entering the sphere. This ensured his blood had a high 02 saturation level, making things a little easier once he was underwater.
He’s still crazy though.
