Bluewater Hunting and Freediving by Terry Maas

Algo increíble que he hecho

I held my breath for 5min26sec --freediving to 100ft in heavy currents off of Mozambique.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

If you like creative visualization, I can show you how to design anything in 3D. I want to learn how to say “thank you” in every language. My couch is aboard a 30’ yacht!
