Shit, that's awesomely deep. I once had to dive about 20-30 feet to retrieve my sister's mask and snorkel from the bottom of the ocean (that she stupidly just DROPPED) but I did it with flippers and goggles and came out totally exhausted. It's a great rush getting back to the surface again though... I actually really enjoy swimming for long periods in a single breath. When I was 8 I could do 11 laps of an average backyard pool without coming up for air. My best friend and I used to 'train' for it while pretending to be sea otters. We were so cool.
