Guillaume Néry (24, France) trains for his attempt to break a world freediving record, off the coast of Nice.
Freediving is carried out without oxygen tanks, and participants try to reach as great a depth as possible. Néry succeeded in his record-breaking quest with a 109-meter-deep dive on 6 September. The record held only until December, when it was beaten by a 111-meter dive by Austrian Herbert Nitsch.
