A university professor from the United States broke the world record for the longest time living underwater over the weekend, and he is set to continue with his subaquatic lifestyle for the next few weeks.
The previous record was set by two professors from Tennessee in 2014. Dr Bruce Cantrell and Dr Jessica Fain also stayed in the same hotel for 73 days, two hours and 34 minutes. The mission combines medical and ocean research together with educational outreach and was organised by the Marine Resources Development Foundation, owner of the Jules Undersea Lodge.
Since his underwater stay that began on March 1, Dr Dituri has been updating his supporters of his subaquatic life on his social media accounts, including on his YouTube channel.
