After achieving the record breaking feat, free-diver David Vencl emerged from a hole in the ice, spat some blood, sat down for a minute and then opened a bottle of champagne
David Vencl emerged from the depths of Switzerland’s Lake Sils on Tuesday after a record dive beneath the ice to a depth of more than 50 meters without a wetsuit. The 40-year-old Czech diver’s record vertical plunge to 52.1 meters in a single breath follows his entry into the Guinness World Records book for swimming the length of a frozen Czech lake in 2021.
A later visit to the hospital confirmed there was nothing serious. The plunge took him 1 minute 54 seconds, his promoter Pavel Kalous said, which was a bit slower than expected. “He kind of enjoyed it but he admits he was a little more nervous than usual and he had some problems with breathing,” he told Reuters. “There is nothing difficult for him to be in cold water… Lack of oxygen is something normal for him.
