Freediver: Tanya Streeter

ScubaTexan:

I've been watching a documentary that Tanya Streeter did for the BBC called Freediver, where she gets to freedive and scuba dive in several places, interacting with the marine life in each place. She gets to dive with manatees and all kinds of sealife in places like the Galapagos Islands, Belize and Turks and Caicos, just to name three. It was amazing and truly fascinating.

Has anyone else seen this, and do you know if it will be available on DVD in the near future?

She was also on the History Channel program with the guys who dove the SS Niagra off the coast of New Zealand. She set the world record on the (Sled down-bagup) constant ballast[?] dive at 91 meters (296 feet)! In cold water no less!

The sled is No Limits.

I saw that and was a little disappointed with the lack of video of her pushing it. But she did do an awfully tough freedive (well, with a torpedo anyway) in the Blue Hole a couple hundred feet deep and into an overhead environment. Very impressive.

Hey, Freediver, good work faking that cramp. I'm surprised you didn't stop breathing, just to go in for the kill. That scene from Sand Lot just came racing back.
