I love diving. I really do. Any day I can get wet is a good day. But I am not insane. Will Goodman is insane. This Is Hertfordshire reports that Goodman is gunning for the world record for the longest-ever dive; he plans to stay under water for an entire week. The previous record was only 120 hours. Sheesh. Amateur.
To complete the 168-hour challenge, Goodman claims he will have to learn to sleep, eat and, uh, relieve himself underwater. Other challenges include: keeping hydrated; preventing his skin from pruning (I am not making this up!); and keeping his mind occupied. Consequently, he will spend much of the week teaching lessons, reading books, and playing poker and scrabble underwater. I guess he will also be applying plenty of moisturizer.
