holding your breath for 2:30min on the first try is already really impressive, and almost doubling that with a few days of training is insane. love your videos
over 2 minutes is elite untrained...i did an ironman triatholon and untrained i never get past 1.15/1.20 at best.... or they are just lying and already trained
Your whole energy behind this video is legit chad energy. You wanted to do something, already pulling off a 2:30 feat, and then pushing it to 4 minutes in such a short time. You are the prime human.
Man holding your breath for 2 minutes and 30 seconds on your first try is already HELLA impressive. Like I can’t even hold my breath for more than 30 seconds 😅edit: bro stop saying that your best is like 1 min or sum, he did 2 mins on his FIRST try. Not his best.
Two things that I noticed myself are: 1: practising to breath into your stomach makes a huge difference 2: Some lung training (like running) improves the lung capacity immediatly by a lot
I would highly recommend looking into breathwork or holotropic breathwork I have personally gone up to 4 minutes and it takes a lot of work to do so there are Indians that can go 7-8 minutes while swimming at the same time which I jus find unreasonable but it’s still very impressive nonetheless 😂😂
I dont ususally comment on videos but that was incredible! I'm a competitive swimmer and training to hold my breathe was something that terrified me and took the longest of time but I believe it taught me how to overcome my own mind and you just showed it perfectly. What you did here was truly amazing, overcoming your fear and mind with pure determination. I really respect that!
You have a natural talent for this, it took me about 1 year of practice to reach 3 minutes and about 2 years to reach 4 minutes. My personal record is 4:45. I tried to swim the most laps possible underwater and after about 3.5 laps I blacked out and drown, I was hospitalized and almost died. Please never ever hold your breath underwater without supervision.
Then you must have small lungs, when my dad used to take care of our small pool, i used to dive to the bottom, sit down and trying to hold my breath. I don't really remember my record now. But while watching this video, i was trying to hold my breath. I got 1:30 for the first time. About 5 minutes later i got 2 minutes. I am a smoker by the way. But recalling that memory when i was sitting on the bottom of the pool, it was an unearthly experience. I was so relaxed, not hearing a single sound, it's like i was in a deep state of mind and i was doing it alone. I will definitely do it again soon, since it was about 10 years ago...
omg my teacher was talking about growth mindset and she said that she loves and watches your vids and gave you as an example as growth mindset for never giving up and learning all this! 😭😭
I have seen all you skull videos and after that many, I still get emotional and so happy that you fucking did it! Mike! You keep inspiring me! Thank you for your contribution to humanity.
I think the reason he found it hard to do it underwater was because he was tense. What you should do instead is: 1) Don’t think about holding your breath or being underwater, focus on a specific happy memory or something . Also have a positive mindset even if you don’t think you can do it because it’s kind over matter. 2) float with your back just on the water surface. 3) make sure your head is below your back because if it isn’t that means your tense at the neck and you are not fully relaxed. 4) don’t try counting in your head because even if you don’t think it will it will make you more stressed and tense. If you are timing it underwater don’t look at the timer. 5) don’t think of it as a chore or as something you must do think of it as something fun that you love because you can trick your brain and last longer. 6) you won’t always get consistent results so make sure to be patient with yourself.
errm: advice for you pls make your sentences a bit shorter it will actually make more people reading more people reading it means more people liking it the more people liking it the more higher your comment gets the more higher your comment gets the even more people reading it the even more people reading it mean more and more likes and on and on and so on...
when i was in a jacuzi my dad chalanged me to see who can hold the longest and then i started 60 secs in and i heard my dad get out of the water then at 120secs he did it again🤭. I could still go but i dont want to shame my dad. how did i do this i was smiling with my teeth and closing the missing tooth with my tongue.😁😬

dopo anni che ti seguo comunque, noto che il tuo editing è sempre migliorato a dismisura ed è qualcosa di sensazionale. Complimenti per il lavoro che c'è dietro ogni tuo video, oltre al fatto che poi la skill la impari per davvero, assurdo
A trick that I use (and to be honest I don't know how it works so it may simply be a placebo effect or something to that degree) to stay underwater maybe 20 seconds give or take longer, is just to let out like half of my lung capacity, wait for the lungs to burn again, and let out the rest. I only do this if I feel comfortable about resurfacing quickly, though. I wouldn't necessarily recommend trying it yourself. I just started doing it around ten years old and since then, it's worked for me.
Golden tip. Start swimming in distance while holding your breath and think about getting towards the distance. Not about the holding breath fact. Because you focus and think to much about it, it plays with your mind. Make your body think you need to achieve the distance you swim under water and not about the holding breath. As always you are a goat and thanks for the vids!
@bigballerbrand5942 A while ago, I went swimming with my class, and at some point, they decided to test how long we could swim. When I was up on my first try, I was thinking about my breath the entire time and didn't get that far, but on the later two attempts, I thought about distance, and I got at least twice as far. Also, when I felt that weird pain in my lungs, I decided to see how much longer I could go and swam an extra 3-4 meters.
Mike Shake is the most tallented man alive, but Albert Einstein said “Genius is 1% talent and 99% percent hard work...” He is right Mike worked hard for this!
I do the same every holiday while snorkeling. From short to multi minute dives. I always feel great when I can stay down there longer and longer. It's equally rewarding, so it's fun to get better.
This is actally beacuse your bodys need to breath comes from a high CO2 Level in your blood not by low O2 Levels. By breathing multiple times before holding your breath you lower the CO2 Level in your blood so that it takes longer for it to get high again. That's also why e.g People who climb the Mount everest don't feel the low oxygen Levels in their blood. Because they still get the CO2 out of their body, so doesn't feel the need to breath.
You want to do what’s called slow hyperventilation take big deep breath not super quick or super slow. And do enough of them right before you dive and your body will have a lot more oxygen to live on. As well as it gets your heart rate lower. Which not only allows your body more oxygen but also reduces the amount of carbon dioxide in your lungs which is why you feel that “pain” when you hold your breath.

Using the Whim Hoff Method I went from holding my breath for just over a minute to 4 minutes in under a week. Crazy how such a change can happen in such a short amount of time
Actually every fit person can hold their breath for minimum of 4 minutes, you just to scared to hold that long. But that's just my point of view, who studied freediving for a month and achieved 5 minutes
Wow that's really impressive Mike to achieve in such a short time . Like imagine divers improve their breathing underwater after years of training .What would be really interesting is maybe taking this to the next level and trying it while moving through obstacles or sth like simulating an underwater cave.
I have a tip so that you could do it faster and that is to think that you are not going to drown. I mean, not to think that you are going to run out of oxygen at an opportune moment.
My fav youtuber because there is so much relatable you and me my face and thinking is same but you have lot more than me but kinda too relatable i don't see anyone like this personality
Variants of this, known as “interoceptive exposures,” are essentially the state of the art treatment for panic attacks (which happen when your automatic “fuck, I’m drowning!” alarm gets triggered by anxiety, breathing weird, and/or some odd body sensation). I did similar stuff in hospital. Breathing through a coffee straw for an extended period of time is the one I remember working best for me personally, but different exercises work for different people.
What you have to be aware of by hyperventilating before a breath hold is what we divers call shallow water black out. The human brain will automatically take over when a breath is required because of oxygen deprivation to the brain. The threshold to take a breath is lower than the point of blackout. When you hyperventilate you move the threshold to breathe higher. Too much and you can move the threshold to breathe above blackout. Spearfishermen hyperventilate prior to a breath hold dive in order to stay down longer but if you surpass blackout threshold, the consequences can be fatal and has occurred many times.

This is actally beacuse your bodys need to breath comes from a high CO2 Level in your blood not by low O2 Levels.
