SwimSwam Film Fest: Freediving the Abyss

I’m a swim film festival fan, and I love this short swimming and free diving video, Freediving the Abyss, captured by SSI Freediving.

I am always on the lookout for great swim videos. If you have an interesting or beautiful swimming-related video, please submit to Gold Medal Mel Stewart at swimswam to be featured. We appreciate all points of view on pools, lakes, rivers and oceans. Please include a little background on why you captured the video and the equipment you used (cameras, lens, editing software, etc.). Feel free to add your own story as well.

From the producers:

Watch 4 Freediving professionals swim in unison beneath the Blue Hole’s infamous Arch at a depth of 60m! Through dedication and perseverance 25 divers from around the world collaborated to achieve this breathtaking feat. The possibilities of the sea are truly limitless!

Produced by Aron Daníel Arngrímsson – Team Blue Immersion FX
