You'd better hope the refs don't have any controversy to deal with!

Re: How Long Can You Hold Your BREATH?

I've held mien for over two minutes, both in and out of water.
I don't remember my best time, but I stopped probably before I needed to because I was afraid I might pass out.

Re: How Long Can You Hold Your BREATH?

when i'm swimming in practice= 4 mins
swim meets= 1-3 depending on race
free diving= usually about 5 mins

i never have really exerted my lungs when doing any of this, so i'm not sure how long i could just sit and hold my breath.

Re: How Long Can You Hold Your BREATH?

As this thread is brought back for the third time... XD

With no preping, I can hold my breath for a minute even.
I hissed for 35 seconds.
I managed to hold the paper for 3 seconds. Somehow, the paper got stuck on the wall so I hit like 7 seconds. I say it was stuck because once I stopped breathing, it stayed. =/

Just for the record, its actually easier to hold your breath underwater. When your body hits the water your heart rate slows down, making it easier to hold your breath for a longer time.

*sticks head underwater* =]

I can hold my breath for forever, just after a few minutes I fall down and can't get back up .
