Longest Freshwater Dive on the Line

For an underwater photographer snapping away at an exciting subject, a long dive could be considered anything more than 45 minutes. Not for this intrepid diver.

Tennessee’s Jerry Hall will be attempting to break the world record for longest freshwater dive. Hall once owned the record of a little more than 120 straight hours, until he was dethroned last year.

Now, the 48-year-old says it’s all about competing against the elements. He’ll take the 5-day-plus dive this weekend. Good luck Jerry!
