I'd love to hear opinions on the above video. Is this harmless fun or extremely dangerous behavior? A couple of things to note:

- Yes, you actually hear a surprised diver curse loudly through their reg
- You can literally hear this dudes ears equalizing

I think it's fun. Sea lions and seals are doing it to the divers all the time

Harmless fun, I'm not sure how this could be perceived as extremely dangerous behaviour. Sure, the freediver could scare someone, but really, the freediver could just have easily been a large fish, or seal as stated above.

Good for the freediver, fun for the bubblers. Frankly, what shovked me was the guy diving without fins at one point!

I think it's awesome. Got to envy this guy's ability.

Looks like a Free Diver playing "Peek-A-Boo"

Harmless fun. I wish I was anywhere near as good at free diving as that!

Awesome vid. Jealous I cant freedive live this person. Fun Fun Fun.

I hear you...I freedive to about 20-25 feet and that is it. Anything beyond that and I want to take my air supply with me. Definitely talented divers.
