I actually had the chance to meet Nery shortly after this vid was made. He said that it was definitely not a single dive to made the vid. He never meant for it to be a "look what I can do on a sinle breath" but more of an aesthetic video that explained how he felt about freediving, that to him it was like basejumping, only underwater. So they decided to film it a la basejumping style. He said it was impossible to reach the bottom of the hole as it's like 200+m deep (last time I checked the record was 124m last year). In the video, what looks like the bottom is just a ledge part way down.

It is by far one of my favourite videos!
