- On July 13, 2021, in the Bahamas, Alexey Molchanov of Russia dived to an incredible depth of 126m in the discipline of Free Immersion.
The most remarkable fact about this new world record is that his performance of 126m/413ft not only replaces his own previous CMAS world record (118m/387ft, set in the 2019 CMAS World Championship in Roátan, Honduras), but also replaces the overall deepest record in this discipline (125m/410ft), which Alexey made at the 2018 Vertical Blue competition.
For 8 years, the world records in this discipline belonged to William Trubridge. In 2011, William was the first to surpass the world record of the legendary Herbert Nitsch (120m/394ft), diving 1m/3ft deeper. In the next years, William continued setting the record deeper until 124m/407ft. In Vertical Blue 2017, Alexey Molchanov reached the same depth of 124m, but upon surfacing, lost his tag, ruling out the possibility of a world record.
Only a year later in Vertical Blue 2018, Alexey successfully reached the necessary depth to set a new AIDA world record in FIM to 125m/410ft. In that competition, neither competition host William Trubridge nor anyone else could compete with Alexey in this discipline.
In the 2019 CMAS World Championship, Alexey set a new CMAS world record in FIM to 118m/387ft. That result stood until today, and now the new CMAS world record is 126m! What an improvement and an amazing result - and on the first day of competition with 5 more days to go! Congratulations, Alexey, we adore you!

I have done free diving for more than 50 years, I met almost all the epic champions of the past, but this guy is really a...miracle....God bless him.
I can’t believe how at ease he looked. What a master of his craft. Looked like he was just dropping down to check the bottom of the line.
Восхищен ДИНАСТИЕЙ МОЛЧАНОВЫХ🙏.... Алексей лучший😎👊👊👊👊👊👊 и, конечно же, нельзя забывать его маму-сверхженщину.. - светлая память Наталье! 🙏🙏🙏

Гордость Натальи и всего братства фридайвинга. Светлая ей память.
mind BLOWN. i felt relaxed just watching him. you, sir, are incredible.
What a beautiful dive! Congratulations! On the side note the music was terribly distracting.
I liked the music! It was ‘chill’ as he was!
@@CherylPix62 it was too lound. Hard to hear the commentators
superb! so clean and relaxed, amazing. Tanks for sharing this amazing dive, beautiful filming.
What a magnificent dive , congratulations. Really great 👏👏
As a New Zealander who loves William Trubridge , Kudos to Alexey well done !
Amazing!!!😍❤ congratulations from Berlin. You're an Inspiration!
Es impresionante... tremenda capacidad, increíble tecnica🎉
Herzlichen Glückwunsch, das war unglaublich
Poetry In Motion. 👌
Thank you very much
Amazing Molchanov
Humans are amazing. We need more good humans like these please.
Good Russian humans?
@@ADGNet yes, from all countries, russian included...
Congratulations!
Excelente!!!! Congratulations!!!
I can hold my breath for 10 seconds, I think I’m ready. 👍🏼👍🏼😂😂🤣
God bless you, Alexey
Amazing and very impressive
😯 felicidades!!!!eres una makina!!👏👏👏👏
That was amazing bravo
Fantástico!
Congratulations 👏👏
Thank you !
That is one of the most amazing things I've ever seen. One of the greatest feats, ever! Congrats 👏🏻 I'm curious tho, why not go 5 meters past old WR, instead of 1? You made it look so easy, like you could easily go further and touch bottom lol.
Depth and/or time increases are small because the amount of extra training and preparation is not
Why didnt kipchoge just run a 1:58 marathon instead of 1:59?
What this guy is doing is borderline impossible, and freediving isnt like other sports where you can just stop if you pushed to hard.
Once you are down there you gotta get up, or you risk dying
Yeah, why not go 10 meters deeper ? It’s so easy 🤣
I love having the dreams where I figure out how to breath underwater
Me too!!
Yeah I had them too. So I took up scuba diving. Living my dream
When I have those I end up choking underwater and wake up choking on my saliva
@@martybyrde are you drunk? Sometimes you choke on saliva if your drunk.
@@jasonweiss3014 not always
all your perfomances a so incredible and inspiring. When you do that do you go naked eyes or you have some lense or sort of lens ? i want to try without the mask but i don't know what to expect
Expect pure meditative state. Freediving = no googles
Amazing technique and looks so comfortable waiting for the white tag… I think he’s got more in him brilliant
I have had the pleasure of meeting him twice. I am told that he practices deeper then this :D
@@bocachad2092 would definitely dedicate myself to training if I had your opportunity
Could have hit 130 100%
Big ups to the person who recorded the entire dive!
I think this was recorded by a unmanned underwater vehicle?
he usually does weddings, he had an opening for this event. lol
I tried holding my breathe I got to the 126m mark and almost passed out, to go back up while using energy is ridiculous.
U got to the world record mark?
@@zfad4544 holding my breathe yeah but I was struggling lol, doing it with moving and being underwater I definitely couldn't get close
I hit failure depth at 30m and struggle to keep a good mouthfill :( Alexey is so damn cool.
I haven't even tried going that deep without apparatus. It's plenty deep to go without bringing life support equipment. Most I've gone down to is about 8m, and swam around for a bit. I can do a bit over 2 minutes, and I can swim the length of an olympic swimming pool. I prefer bringing scuba gear though.
Very impressive.
Incredible.
Waaaouh incredible
великолепно!
Fantastic person!
Wow he makes it look so easy!!
He really held his breath whole moving for 4:45sec 😲
This is epic!!!!
Definitely 🔥 thank you for watching 🙌
@@MolchanovsFreediving #WeAreMolchanovs
Most people chase highs. These folks chase lows. ❤️ amazing to watch.
Epic!
Why the music whyyyyyyy?????
What an awesome record 126 metres! wonder how long he hyperventilated for before this unbelievable record depth? would also be interesting to know how low his heart rate/pulse was before the descent ? one thing i did notice he never used his legs once , he only used his arms , definitely mind over matter to achieve this
I'll tell you how long he hyperventilated for-he didn't
No hyperventilation at all, its very dangerous and actually not beneficial at all to freedivers. What you see him do before the dive is called packing, and its to get the maximal possible amount of air into the lungs
Леха красава !
Respect
Но круто ! Успехов !
Just under 5 minutes. Impressive
Congrat's++
Here for the music, nice dive though ;)
i would panic as soon as i hit the bottom id be like oh no, all this water over my head and I really need air
My ears pop in the deep end of our nine foot pool.😳
Freedivers equalize the pressure in their ears so there is no pain at any depth) Join a freediving course and you will learn it at the first lesson :)
Best🚀🚀🚀
You freedivers are built different!
Everyone can become a freediver 😉 Take a Wave 1 course and comfortably dive to 12-20 meters 🙌
@@MolchanovsFreediving I can't equalize to save my life! My ear doctor said my ears are perfectly fine and normal, but I can't equalize to save my life. I don't know why. I can do 3 metres and that's it.
como ele conseguiu equalizar os ouvidos tão rápido?
BRAVO RUSSIA!! GOD BLESS YOU
413ft that's crazy .
would it also not be better to have bail out habitats every 20meters or so just in case ?
How do they avoid getting the benz?
It s crazy to see just how empty the ocean really is !
То, что делает Алексей, - восхитительно! Но я скубадайвер и фридайверов никогда не понимал. )
Попробуйте, вам понравится 😉👍
Попробуйте, вам понравится 😉👍
👌 wow 👌
how long does it takes to be able performing like him?
Years of dedicated training 🐳
one of my best vidéos in TH-cam ❤
Thank you! ❤️
@@MolchanovsFreediving 👑🦸♂️
does it count as a record if you die on the way up?
Fucking awesome!
This looks scary as hell to me 😵💫
he's your countryman
I love how they take away the depths sign at 15 meters like its nothing 😆
368' WOW
After 20 m you just start free falling in the water.
How doesn’t he get the benz?
it would have been interesting to have a clock recording the dive.
Yes, usually there is a clock with dive time, but this time it didn't work due to a technical error
This is the kind of stuff God likes to watch.
does it really count if you don't swim up tho?
No) you need to swim up yourself, take off all the equipment from the face, show "ok" sing and say "I'm okay" within 15 seconds after surfacing. In this case, you'll get a white card and your dive will be count as successful
so, does he get oxygen from water? i don't understand. (i'm kidding but i can't hold my that long ON LAND or underwater and not to mention SWIMMING while holding my breath for ... someone comment how long he was holding that breath. so breathing water and getting o2 from it makes more sense in my mind than anything else)
It just takes a lot of practice to dive that good 😊 but anyone can learn how to dive comfortable under the water and hold breath longer👍
Anyone have the name of the song?
Chapters by Josh Leake! Should get a credit! Fits the epic dive perfectly! 👌🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@timparkhouse1502thanks
Hey turn the music up more the people talking are just way to loud it’s not like I can barely hear them😂
He makes it look easy 😅
Haha exactly 😅 As if it's just a warm up
Molchanov, translated from Russian - silently..
Where was the dive?
Bahamas, Long Island 🏝️
Gee it would be nice to hear the commentary instead of the music.
Wooowww... fishman
most of us woulda panicked and drown lol
Not many people know That in 2011 diver Zoran Zaev broke world record in free dive 289.m in Macedonia lake Ohrid
Did he surface after that?
It s so dark under water, Allahou akbar, Allah told us.
413 FEET.!!! FUCKING TERRIFYING!!!
I need next feb march leave to Indo. I met a man in a place and the agressive woman destroyed me to not allow to be with him meanwhile we were dancing and starting to feel comfortable. I felt calm and me on in him. He could be a free diver but he is i don t know where xactly and I am as a bear in a zoo in bcn city allways making circles to nowhere. So if I reach this Blondie amazing man person I can have calm and hope if not I only need to take the desition strong to leave and don t come back till Indo Pacific area. So when u find the right one and all is a big mess around you realise nothingelse is necessary. So I have myself and I can free dive and go in the depth in Indo where they allow people to free free dive or share with masters both things not only on in the center, yes all over the indic green ocean. Hugs kissess and happy 2023 for all the freedivers. For u ur family and I said before. Hope to help you on the surface. Maybe I can help you on the depths. Hugs and kissesssssssse
The music is too loud. We can't hear her talk.
Thank you for your feedback, will fix it next time 🙏🙌
It'd be good to have a clock running, so we knew how long he was down there for.
Usually it is there but this time it didn't worked (
Is there a discipline where youre not allowed to use the rope to pull yourself down, but your own body only?
Yes: Constant weight (CWT), Constant weight with bifins (CWTB) and constant weight without fins (CNF). Basically there is only one discipline where you're allowed to use the rope to pull yourself
@@MolchanovsFreediving Thanks for the answer! I'm super new to all this, so thank you for the insight. Also, mind-blowing dive :D
@@MolchanovsFreediving Ha! You have the world record for that as well :D
Probably hi must have seen a Sebastian crab
is doping possible in free-diving? asking for a friend...
Doping is possible in any sport, all the world record dives are approved only after doping testing
why couldnt he wear a goggle?
In Russia, you tame deep.
why didn't he wear fins like the guy who just broke 130 meter
It's a different discipline
I think they forgot to start the clock
Yes, usually there is a clock with dive time, but this time it didn't work due to a technical error
Interesting he was doing tiny intakes of breath and im like WTF is he doing. try to inhale a full lung full you cant but if you take little sucks of breath you can put loads more sir in ya lungs. cool :)
doesn’t he need to decompress going so far down?
No. If there’s no on-gassing, no need for off-gassing.
No, your blood only saturates with nitrogen if you inhale compressed air at depth. The breaths he took were all at 1 ATM.
Amazing feat, but the added music made it cheesy af.
music is way to effing loud
way up is much slower
