On May 4, a woman in Zhengzhou, Henan Province, posted a video on social media platforms saying that her younger brother drowned in full view of the gym while swimming in a gym on April 26.

His sister said that when the drowning victim held his breath for about 3 minutes, he began to drink water, the water surface gurgled and bubbling, and then began to move vigorously to save himself and ask for help.

For 10 minutes after sinking to the bottom of the pool, there were no staff to rescue the venue, and it was not until other guests carried out rescue that they went into the water to catch people. After the fish up, there were no emergency measures in the venue, and they didn't know how to give first aid, and the whole process took nearly 20 minutes, and when 120 arrived, they had missed the golden rescue time, resulting in the death of the younger brother.

In the voiceover that came out of the video, the staff said: "Shocked, it's been more than 7 minutes (holding your breath) now." ”

The sister also said that her younger brother is 25 years old this year, ready to get married around eleven, is the swimming coach of the venue, just had a physical examination this year, is very healthy, and has no genetic history in the family.

Subsequently, the topic word #Swimming coach accidentally drowned while holding his breath while practicing# rushed to the hot search, causing heated discussions among netizens.

Netizens called it too bizarre.

kwong-gowg-mowg: that's too ...... Drowning yourself, or by the pool? It's kind of bizarre.

Many dreams, seasons: drowning is not bizarre, the bizarre thing is that a few people next to him do not rescue for more than ten minutes.

Jin Sha Ningxia: The struggle in the water is really obvious, and no one helps. How can someone with a little common sense believe that a person can hold his breath for ten minutes?

Netizens said that someone must watch the practice of breath-holding, and questioned why there were no lifeguards in the venue.

The breeze and the moon accompany me: the brain is starved of oxygen, the movements are unconscious, and someone must watch the breath-holding, and rescue immediately in case of an accident.

Big Orange 2458: I learned free diving, and the coach emphasized every time that someone must keep an eye on the practice of holding your breath, otherwise you will die. By the way, practicing breathlessness is challenging one's own limits, that is, to endure it all the time, but this process is very likely to suddenly faint, so it is very dangerous.

Natsume: There are no lifeguards? We have at least two swimming pools, and there are seven or eight lifeguards when there are many tourists.

The Guinness World Record for the longest breath-holding time underwater (male) was set in March 2021 by Budimir Šobat from Croatia, who held on for 24 minutes and 37 seconds.

For most people, it may seem impossible, but for Boudimir, it's the culmination of years of painstaking training. In order to set a record, the 48-year-old began learning to freedive. He spent three years preparing for the record, training six days a week. At the time of the challenge, the 56-year-old was lying in the swimming pool, his face soaked in the water, and he was protected by a professional support team.
