I hate to break it to you but Peter Colat and Nicola Putignano all cheated too with pfc's. And no I didn't mean the pure o2. The last guy to make an honest static apnea using pure o2 only record was maybe Gianluca Genoni (2002, 12'34") but even he cheated later breaking his own record again making it to 18 minute record in 2008. Bill Stromberg 13'05" and early Tom Sietas record (14'12") are probably honest records too. Anyway lately most of these guys are breaking their own records by 5 minutes plus (i.e. all cheating with pfcs). It is no coincidence that all these records started happening after the advent of commercially available perfluorcarbons (to inject into blood or muscles).

Mm, I don't really follow all of those records - there are just too many different categories! That said, I do know for a fact that David Blaine got close to eight minutes with this method. That's impressive enough for me.

All those records are a single category: static apnea using pure o2; I have purposely not mentioned any record in different categories.
And yeah I do think his 8 minutes static apnea without oxygen was probably honest - and even though I am a fan of Blaine the illusionist I am just giving you a hard time about him advancing anything in the world of static apnea (with or without o2).

I just held my breath for 2:30 using this, my previous record was only about 1:30!!!

That was crazy

Edit: Wow, I just finished about five minutes ago and just right now it felt like I got punched in the nards. Has anyone else experienced this?

Personally, I've only felt light-headed and tingly/numb - perfectly understood effects of hyperventilation.

holding your breath can causes brain damage, I'd advise not trying this.

My advice to anyone doing static apnea (room temp unaided); stay under 3:30 minutes otherwise you will pay for it the rest of your life with retinal problems and a tiny little less I.Q (both that you won't initially notice, specially when you break over 4 minutes). : ) -

In other words Karliath disclaimer is indeed quite correct so please listen to him: "This technique is DANGEROUS, and, as such, I am forced to advise you not to try it."

I hope it's okay under certain circumstances to edit "mod edits." :\

I only changed the format a bit to make it easier for everyone to comprehend.

Meh yeah. People were posting "5min 30s+ before trying" and " 0 - 30s after trying," which is obviously not true. I was forced to delete the polls.

back in high school a bunch of my guy friends were being retarded and making each other pass out LOL.

first step was to put bend over, hands on knees and hyperventilate then stop after a few seconds of doing that.

then put arms across chest (hands on shoulders) and stand against a wall

3rd 4-5 other guys would push as hard as they could against you

woke up on the floor with my friends slapping my face looooool and i felt SUPER tired the whole day D:

one of my friends started spazzing out when he fainted it was really freaky D:

I wonder how widespread this is. When I was in 7th grade, living in germany, the boys at my school did this. When one of my friends did it, some of the kids "helping" kicked him in the gut after he fell over, so when it was my turn I refused. I thought it was peculiar to the military base I was on, though.

...The dumb shit boys do to prove they're tough... amiright?

To anyone considering trying the ultimate hold breath technique... unless you're planning on being a professional diver or magician... just don't. A cheap thrill like this isn't worth significant brain damage/death.
