Following on from rumours that actor Jason Statham is going to play Pipin Ferreras in the movie version of “The Dive”, a picture has surfaced online that seems to indicate Pipin is going to go for a new World Record in No Limits (NLT) Freediving.
No Limits is the discipline of Freediving where a diver rides a weighted sled down to depth and is assisted up to the surface, like the recent record attempt where Herbert Nitsch was injured whilst attempting a 800ft/244m dive.
Unconfirmed sources have indicated that Pipin may well be trying for 250m which would significantly exceed his previous No Limits Freediving record of 170m in 2003.
