The Swiss diver entered the Guinness Book of Records, where he set a record for the deepest dive under the ice while holding his breath.
On February 27, experienced diver Valdemar Bruderer, without breathing, without a boat and without a wetsuit, reached a depth of 56 meters.
He dove into Lake Zils in the canton of Graubünden, Switzerland. In February, the water temperature in this reservoir usually fluctuates from -11 to +1 degrees.
Bruderer noted that his record was not only a challenge, but also a test of resilience: he sought to gain popularity to remind people that nature needs to be protected. The diver hopes that his achievement will also help draw attention to the problem of climate change and glacier melting.
"Living in Switzerland, I witnessed how climate change and the melting of glaciers determine our landscape," he said.
"I am inspired by the idea of immersing myself in nature, feeling it in its pure form. When I minimize the number of equipment, I feel more connected to the forces of nature and can truly appreciate the magnificent underwater landscapes," added Bruderer.
