I thought I could hold my breath under water for a long time. Apparently I am nothing compared to Peter Colat.
Colat just broke the world record for holding his breath under water. His time? 19 minutes and 21 seconds.
That means if Colat recorded any 30-minute show on television he could watch it on DVR (without commercials) in one breath.
Colat said that “felt the need to breath around the 12 minute mark.”
Wow. Really? I thought there would be more to it.
I decided to research what it takes to be a professional hold-your-breath athlete. Here is what I found…
- Practice Holding Breath.
- Lose Weight
- Stop Smoking
- Splash Cold Water on Your Face
- Eat a Healthy Diet
- Only breath in 85% of Capacity
- Practice with a Partner
- Exhale Slowly
- Repeat 3-4 times
I’m Out…maybe they have a professional guy-who-runs-the-stopwatch-for-other-guys athlete?

Chock this up to the too unbelievable to be true category. Bank America is being sued for seizing a parrot.
I found a journal the other day. Mostly pointless ramblings by a much younger version of me, but there were certainly some clear “items” that I should have experienced by now.
Not that the headline gives it away, but today marks the 10-year anniversary of the DotCom bust. So who were my favorites and how much cash did they burn through?
