- A freediver was attempting to break the world record for the deepest dive when he blacked out due to low oxygen pressure.
Miguel Lozano is a professional freediver and freediving entrepreneur from Barcelona, Spain.
The 43-year-old had attempted the dive twice before - once in the Bahamas and once in Bali, Indonesia.
The target depth was 125 meters - and in the past, Lozano had made it to 122 and 123 meters.

Incredible rescue!!!! Perfect teamwork, and everybody was going HARD without air. Well done!!!
except for the camera guy haha
I'm not so sure about this. Record holder Herbert Nitsch had a similar problem and because they brought him up too the surface too quickly he became handicapped afterwards. Also I find it totally idiotic to not put even a SINGLE scuba diver there who could supply air under water in an emergency situation. To me this looks completely foolish.
@@testtor2714Please educate yourself before making silly remarks like this. We do not ever use scuba safety because if you take one breath from the regulator at depth, you now have to deco your way up. What they are trying to do is to get the unconscious diver to the surface asap, so they can wake him up or give him oxygen if needed.
@@testtor2714don't quote me but basically at the depth they go on a breath hold to give them oxygen from a tank at that depth isn't exactly air we breathe on the surface so I believe something along the lines of their lungs exploding would happen if they got them air at that depth
@@leonardofernandez3978 No. It doesn't make a difference whether you're scuba diving or free diving. Otherwise all the scuba divers would always die. And even if the surface level uncompressed air would be a problem, he could simply breath out before taking a new breath from a scuba diver in an emergency situation.
The safety guys were all deep too... that was hardly a 'shallow' water blackout... great rescue, job well done!
Miguel Lozano dived to 125 meters. For a dive this deep the first rescue diver should appear around 40, second at 35 and third around 30 meters
@@NunoTorpedoAnd what would happen if he blackout before reaching these 40 meters?
@@mephistotel87 those cases are extremely rare (not to say they never happened) but just in case, there's a safeguard system: a counter-weight on the other end of the main line that when released pulls the diver up (that's why they always have a lanyard connecting them to the main line)
@@NunoTorpedo Thank's for the details! :) But how is the line released as the diver collapsed? And there is not more deep scubadiver ?( Like with Pascal Bernabe for example for Audrey Mestre's tragedy)
@@sharko108 From the safety guidelines :
The recovery system should be activated if
• Motionless athlete is either visible by safety team, live cameras or visible with sonar
(With sonar, the system will activated if we see a stop of at least 10s, a stop is
considered as a speed of descent or ascent of less than 0.2m/s).
• The athletes touches the bottom at least 30s late according to bottom dive time
declared at the beginning of the competition.
• The athlete is not in sight of the safety freedivers at the end of the announced dive
time.
Great team effort. 100% saved his life. Im sure he's very grateful.
That’s one heck of a team right there. Great job!!
And the safety team were all holding their breath just as long as the divers - 👍👏👏👏
yea not really, they plan the diving time, regarding athletes record the danger zone is always between 40 and 0, so one goes as at -40 then one -35 and so one with more and more safety as it is close to surface
@@edadanI think is that scuba diver requires 3-5min safety stop when dive deeper than 30ft. Freedivers can directly ascend from any depth.
Love how he checks his watch.... gotta find out his time after death...
thats a dive computer thats to know his depth and time holding his breath.
safety guys casually breaking the records and saving the guy at the same time
😂
😂😂 for real
@berrex5152 Haha, but not quite. Miguel Lozano dived to 125 meters. For a dive this deep the first rescue diver should appear around 40, second at 35 and third around 30 meters
they casually have giant flippers on
Did we watch the same video? There’s a point where they didn’t dive as deep as him.
One of the most perfect examples of we all need each other even when we are jumping.
Big kudos to the Team!! everyone knew their assignments
These rescues are so scary but beautiful at the same time
The safety divers are the athletes that should be celebrated
He is a machine, great work safety team✨👏
goosebumps
A friend and former work colleague was involved in resuce. The safety divers were part of his team. He's implemented safety divers for events such as this and trying to make it a standard across the board. He also teaches safety diving courses and instructor courses. I'm just so proud of him for what he's accomplished. So happy that the diver is ok. If you're thinking of free diving, always, always make sure your instructor is accredited
Amazing rescue. Well done guys!!
The level of preparation and teamwork is amazing
Team work ! First diver had really impressive speed !
Amazing team work 💛
Dios mio, que este bien.
the dramatic swim up is what made me realize
how deep that truly is.
What's crazy is that all those helpers were down their with him without oxygen. I guess that ensures that they can quickly ascend without decompression sickness.
Speaking of decompression, didn’t the guy need to decompress a while before they brought him up?
@@Coco_Loco95Nah they're freediving. You only worry about decompression stops when diving with a scuba tank because you're breathing and as you go up with the oxygen you just inhaled the lung expands because there's less pressure and your lungs could even explode. If you dive one breath only you're still on one breath of oxygen which means the air can't expand more than what you had when you started the dive.
@@xtherealest thanks for the info
@@Coco_Loco95 Np 💯
@@Coco_Loco95 That's for scuba divers. Freedivers dive on a single breath which makes decompress unnecessary.
Deep respect to the rescue team !
this is what legendary team work is
Epic team work everyone…The guy trying to unhook the safety wire and he did 😈 epic just epic ❤
I get brain damage by reading this comment section. More dangerous than blacking out when freediving with professionals like in this video
Yeah 😂 people think a scuba tank is a right way to rescue. The person would be dead if these people were to rescue someone 💀
Amazing safety team wow
Wow, this was actually very intense to watch.
Elite team
Man these are professionals
He could learn a lot from the safety guys. They’re amazing swimmers
What do you mean..? They have on flippers, so they swim faster. But why do you feel like he could learn a lot from them? He’s using a different technique to persever oxygen, not because he’s a worse swimmer 😂
That man owes his life to the men that prevented his death, they were Johnny on the spot.
Bro you did that!!!! Even tho you almost checked out smh you stilll accomplished sumn most mfs wouldn’t even think of 💯 💪🏾 GREAT work to the ENTIRE TEAM !!!
Don’t you have to make it back to the surface for it to count?
The only reason I could find to go back, is that the team did so well at doing their own jobs, they guaranteed your return in the most efficient time possible
What a team
Real lifeguard ❤
At least they had professional and competent crew! Rescue executed perfectly
RIP Stephen Keenan.
Life savers!
Glad he is ok
Your one lucky guy mate
What a graceful rescue
I loved the guy filming the whole thing 😂
Well done rescur team👏👏
Looks like he tapped his forehead to signal to the rescuers that he knew he was losing consciousness. Great job everybody.
I noticed that rescue team are not diving all the way to bottom but just wait at 20 last meters, what happens if diver black out at the bottom?
I think it's because the blackouts mostly occur when you're resurfacing. He didn't just randomly run out of breath, something happens with the pressure/oxygen in your lungs.
@@TH-dg2mm Correct. It's called "hypoxia of ascent".
When you are deep, the pressure of oxygen remains sufficiently high that you can maintain consciousness.
However, when you rise up too fast, this pressure decreases too fast and lights out it is.
@@FinlayDaG33k Yeah, I watched a few other videos and most of the blackouts actually happen really close to the surface.
It must be tough knowing you dove all that way and made it all the way back up, only to black out a few meters from the surface!
There is 100% a diver down below thats breathing tri-mix he just can’t surface or else he could die. He needs to decompress on his way up.
If he were to black out below the safety teams rescue depth, then there is another safety procedure. He is attached to that line with a clip, so they drop a counterweight off the back of the floating platform, which pulls the line up from the bottom. He will then be yanked up with the line to the surface where he can be rescued.
The rescuers are Gs!!!!!
True heroes!! Risking their own lives for those who want to break records
Helping with peoples craziness
Safety guys were babysitting this dude
Well hes the one diving to crazy depths, not the safety guys waiting at shallower depths.
Crazy sport
0:39 Even though I'm sitting comfortably on a sofa, I could feel the need to breath but I remembered that even with the panic, you can't.
Horrible.
Kudos to the whole team! Just watched the docu on netflix, im in tears after. Always in awe after a successful rescue 🙌🙌🙌
What’s the documentary called ?
@@iamaaliyah_4468 The Deepest Breath, it's worth watching
Why do human beings have the need to test their limits, even knowing that it could cost them their lives? I could never understand it.
These are the humans who build the world you lean so for granted in.
There was a time where humans had been dominated by so many things, look where we are today because of all the individuals who kept pushing!
bc it’s rad. 🤟🏾
But that’s why we still exist today. It’s that very nature of pushing the limits. Very early on we also built boats when people though the earth was flat. The went places that have never been discovered by those humans not knowing if or ever they will reach land. There are people who are scared of everything and some who aren’t and complete we have a working civilization. That has the technology and lifespan we have today.
We wouldn’t be flying planes if not. We would have never known what was over the cliffs or on the other side of the sea. It’s human nature
@@Kevin12321 yep. But we need all sorts of people in the world to get to where we are at today. People with no empathy like psychopaths “presidents” people with adhd and most are normal people that just work a 9-5. The sheeps of the world to be used basically. Strong minded people weak minded people that’s used by the strong minded.
Dang almost missed this happened in Roatan, in my parent's homeland of Honduras.
A friend, dive pro, spotted another free diver doing this.
No issue but he would be one of the 12 helping if something happened.
All of these divers are fish. Can dive 30 feet like it is nothing
Ego putting everybody in risc
Life is so precious, I don't understand why people have to do this to themselves.
Some people don't define sitting on your couch all day as living
@@AriCalifornia-yu7vq At least people on couches can breathe.
@@AriCalifornia-yu7vqcan still enjoy the water without jeopardizing their safety and others then when mfs get eaten by a shark yall wanna cry😂
This just happens sometimes. If you have divers that will bring you back up there's nothing to worry about. When you pass out your throat shuts so water doesn't get in and they just have to bring him back to the surface and wake him up and everything is fine.
Stupidest sport in the world.
Watta save!!
Why would they do that!! That's scary!
Those are the realest aquaman’s I have ever seen.
What a successful blackout scenario and rescue looks like V Audrey Mestre scenes. 😮😢❤
Tolong beritahu saya
Apa yang menyebabkan blackout saat diving
This is so scary
Okay...why waste all this medical care, stress, etc...to break a world record?! Just for bragging rights? We really need to get our priorities straight
Karen calm down sweetie
You: "waste all this medical care"
The medical care: *Saves a mans life, ON CAMERA.*
Are you sure you're catholic? If so you should get your priorities straight, poser.
There's no medical care needed. When you pass out your throat shuts so no water gets in and it they bring you back to the surface you're going to wake up almost instantly. There's nothing dangerous about that. Find some information on the internet before you type something on the internet.
He almost imploded
It ain’t worth it people
Stuff that…looks so claustrophobic!
I like how the man is blacked out and there is a photographer taking photos 😂😂😂
You will have the bends I imagine
If the whole team dove down there why does the guy that passed out get the credit lol
Because he just dove to 127 meters on one breath 💀
thats a lot of people
What an intelligent sport 😂
Waww butifull
4 days ago Alexey Molchanov set a new record - 133 meters!🥳
Who really cares about a free drive record.
Then months later… the OceanGate sub guy said “hold my beer”.
Does he have the bends?
camera man always survive too
Ill pass lol for real tho this is amazing and I'm glad they have proper protocols to keep divers safe
Effective music accompaniment.
Shout out to the editor!!!!
My hobby is gardening safest among all❤
Why? I just don't get it.
This was bizarre. He tapped when he felt ok and sat up. I watch MMA and you tap out when it's over -
This is the deepest blackout rescue I have seen -
Yikes !!
lady was so concerned with recording
You have to have permission from that realm to enter. That is a totally different dimension. 😑
At least he didn't whiteout
Imagine if the camera man went all the way down and up with him
Safe and effective
How did water not rush into his lungs when he blacked out?
How are those guys able to hold their breath? They just have a snorkeling tube?!
20 minutes
Wow! The ocean is not our domain.
cameraman >>>
❤
Close call
Did he win?
The deepest dive record is to the people in the submarine after it imploded 💀
🍀
why was he swimming without fins?
RIP ❤
id want my safety team to have air tanks...
