Jacques Mayol

Happy Thanksgiving!
So today I'll be writing about Jacques Mayol. 
Jacques Mayol was a free diver, meaning that he would dive as deep as he could go on one breath. Only one. He was a French kid raised in China, so he learned meditation and yoga, which allowed him to learn how to hold his breath for really long. 
There was even a movie made about him called "The Big Blue" and another one called "Dolphin Man". His diving record was 347 ft on one breath.
