Breaking The Guiness World Record - Freediving Under Ice (PART 1) - Organization & Preparation

On 19 March 2021, Molchanovs athletes, Olga Markina and Alexey Molchanov set 2 new Guinness World Records for Freediving Under Ice. Olga dived (209ft) below the ice with a monofin. It took her 2 minutes and 2 seconds. It was her first world record attempt and although she was nervous, she feels that diving under the ice is very special and different from other dives as only a small part of the cheeks has contact with water. In this video, Olga explains the process of organizing and preparing for a Guinness World Record. Next week, she will share more about her record dive, some important details about the equipment, location, dive buddies and more.
