Appendix

 

Tom Sietas

When people first see Tom Sietas, they do not usually notice anything special. He is not very tall, and he is not particularly well-built. But those factors help Tom to do something incredible. Tom has the world record for static apnea. In other words, Tom can hold his breath underwater, without moving, for just over 22 minutes. He only discovered his ability by accident when he went diving in Jamaica at the age of 18. Because he is not very big, it means that he does not need to get a lot of oxygen to his muscles. And it helps that his lungs are 20 % larger than is usual for his height and build. But it is not only a question of his body. His personality plays a big part in his success, too. Thought processes use a lot of oxygen. So it is important that Tom  is calm and patient. Luckily, he rarely gets nervous in the water. In fact, Tom is so calm that he occasionally falls asleep underwater. Obviously, he always trains very carefully to prepare for a new record because what he does is highly dangerous. We are waiting this year to see what he does next. Are we expecting another record attempt? Definitely!
