Very cool...... Reminds me of the old river channel at Stillhouse. Well, the first 30 ft anyway. Any idea where this was filmed and the depth?
 
It's on youtube too. I was incredibly impressed. English version:
Guillaume Nery base jumping at Dean's Blue Hole, filmed on breath hold by Julie Gautier

Wiki says:
Dean's Blue Hole is the world's deepest known blue hole with seawater[1]. It plunges 202 metres (663 ft) in a bay west of Clarence Town on Long Island, Bahamas.
 
and without equalizing his ears (at least on camera)...
 
They produced that on one breath?

How deep was that hole?

I highly doubt it, they only gave credit to 2 camera men. They would have been swimming like their life depended on it to get the shots needed for this film in a single dive.

AIDA does not even recognize a 202 m Constant Weight without Fins dive, the deepest is 95m. This dive would have been a world recorded for sure, assume it was legit.

Dean's Blue Hole is 202m (663 ft) deep.

This video is still pretty cool.

Edit: He never made it to the bottom.
