Mammalian Diving Response
Science Unit: Living with Oxygen Lesson 2: Oxygen Consumers – Mammalian Diving Response School Year: 2012/2013 Developed for: J.W. Sexsmith Elementary School, Vancouver School District Developed by: Sheila Thornton (scientist); Duncan Kay and Danielle Conrad (teachers) Grade level: Presented to grade 7; appropriate for grades 6 – 7 with age appropriate modifications Duration of lesson: 1 hour and 20 minutes (2 hours is preferable) Objectives 1. Reinforce the basic concepts of hypothesis-driven science. 2. Understand the body’s need for oxygen and what affects the physiology of respiration. 3. Understand the physics of pressure and how this relates to the circulatory system. 4. Learn the basic physiology of the mammalian diving response. 5. Develop and test hypotheses on the mammalian diving response in humans. Background Information The mammalian diving response is a combination of physiological reflexes that occur when an animal initiates a dive. When an animal’s face enters the water and respiration ceases, the heart rate slows down (bradycardia). Blood vessels supplying nonessential organs are constricted, redirecting blood to the oxygen-requiring brain and heart. When the heart supplies fewer organs with blood, it can beat more slowly and still maintain adequate blood pressure to the brain, the most metabolically sensitive organ. Diving bradycardia is an easily measured component of a group of reflexes that together constitute the “diving response.” This response to diving is observed in seals, penguins and whales, but also seen to a lesser degree in humans. Vocabulary Bradycardia: A slower than normal heart rate. The heart usually beats between 60 and 100 times a minute in an adult at rest. -

No Limits Freediving
1 No Limits Freediving "The challenges to the respiratory function of the breath-hold diver' are formidable. One has to marvel at the ability of the human body to cope with stresses that far exceed what normal terrestrial life requires." Claes Lundgren, Director, Center for Research and Education in Special Environments A woman in a deeply relaxed state floats in the water next to a diving buoy. She is clad in a figure-hugging wetsuit, a dive computer strapped to her right wrist, and another to her calf. She wears strange form-hugging silicone goggles that distort her eyes, giving her a strange bug-eyed appearance. A couple of meters away, five support divers tread water near a diving platform, watching her perform an elaborate breathing ritual while she hangs onto a metal tube fitted with two crossbars. A few meters below the buoy, we see that the metal tube is in fact a weighted sled attached to a cable descending into the dark-blue water. Her eyes are still closed as she begins performing a series of final inhalations, breathing faster and faster. Photographers on the media boats snap pictures as she performs her final few deep and long hyperventilations, eliminating carbon dioxide from her body. Then, a thumbs-up to her surface crew, a pinch of the nose clip, one final lungful of air, and the woman closes her eyes, wraps her knees around the bottom bar of the sled, releases a brake device, and disappears gracefully beneath the waves. The harsh sounds of the wind and waves suddenly cease and are replaced by the effervescent bubbling of air being released from the regulators of scuba-divers. -

Katerina Giannoglou
Stay Active Spring 2017 #Md2 A note from the MalenDyer Team... There it was. Nestled within the big blue was our oasis. It was hard to make out from the airplane, but we could make it out. It was land, and it was already looking amazingly beautiful and welcoming... Whenever we get a chance, we are making our way to a beach, whether it is by foot, by train, by car or by plane, as we cannot get enough of what the sea offers. For some of us, we get to call the beach home, while for the others, it becomes our escape from reality and offers a chance for us to unwind. For this issue, Stay Active - #Md2, we are going to transport you to your own island oasis. We are going to take you to Bermuda where America’s Cup 2017 will be held and freediving with world record holder Herbert Nitsch. You are going to meet photographer Franck Berthuot who calls the sea his office while we also have an interview with a familiar face, model McKenna Waitley, and someone new that has quickly become one of our favorites, model Katerina Giannoglou. We have a short story that will take you on a cycling adventure, and we spend a day with Mona-Jane Hannemann. The theme of this issue is fitness and athleticism. It may motivate you or even inspire you. Although, Md2 is simply meant to transport you.

AIDA WR Attempt Carlos Coste Free Diving, the Netherlands
Deepsea Challenge 2015 Slechts één In juni is op Bonaire de Deep- ademteug sea Challenge gehouden, een internationaal evenement voor freedivers. Onderwater- sport was er bij. Het wordt stil. De enige geluiden zijn de adem- haling van Carlos Coste, de golven die tegen het platform en de boten slaan en de stem van Gaby die aftelt. Alle ogen zijn gericht op de man die, gekleed in het grijze gladde pak, aan zijn slede hangt. Opperste concentratie op zijn gezicht, zijn energie naar binnen gericht. Zijn uitstraling reikt ver. Iedereen in de nabije om- geving voelt de rust en de kracht die vanuit zijn kern naar buiten straalt. De veiligheids- duikers staan gereed. Hij is bijna zover om zijn duik naar 150 meter te maken. De rem gaat van de slede en Carlos verdwijnt de diepte in. Met een snelheid van 1.6 meter per seconde gaat hij de duistere diepte tege- moet. Mijn hartslag is hoog. Het is bizar om getuige te zijn van een man die zich vrijwillig naar zo’n diepte laat afzakken. Ik krijg bijna geen adem van de spanning en vind het on- voorstelbaar hoe deze atleet zijn spanning kan loslaten en zich volledig kan focussen op zijn taak. Aan boord wordt de afdaling op de sonar gevolgd en hardop roept Gaby de diepte en tijd. Het is zenuwslopend. Carlos zal zo’n vier minuten onder water zijn, alleen, op zichzelf aangewezen. Passievol Ik ontmoet een charismatische man als ik Carlos mag interviewen, een week voor zijn eerste recordpoging. Hij is vriendelijk, extravert en spreekt vol passie over het freediven. -
Freediver Herbert Nitsch LECTURES EN
Freediver Herbert Nitsch’ Lecture Series - English or German “Each time I think I’ve reached a limit…there is a door…it opens…and the limit is gone.” Herbert Nitsch is the current freediving world record holder and “the Deepest Man on Earth”. This prestigious title was given to him when he then set the world record for freediving at an incredible depth of 214 m (702 ft) in 2007 in the No Limit discipline. He surpassed this world record with a No Limit dive to 253.2 m (830.8 ft) in 2012. Herbert, a former airline captain for 15 years and avid yachtsman, can hold his breath for more than 9 minutes and has set a total of 33 world records. 32 of these are in all of the 8 recognized freediving disciplines – unrivaled achievements in the freediving history. Herbert has set an additional world record in the traditional Greek freediving discipline Skandalopetra. Unlike other elite freedivers Herbert is self-taught. He is a pioneer in every way. He developed his own freediving techniques over the years, a methodology that largely differs from the traditional styles. He brought novel ideas to the sport that meanwhile have become common elements in the current freediving scene. He is the first and only freediver documented and recorded to go beyond 180 m (590 ft) during multiple No Limit dives, and the first freediver ever to reach 100 m (328 ft) without fins or sled (free immersion, 2003). He took a break from championships in 2010 to focus solely on the No Limit discipline which is not included in competitions. -
