Russian freediver Alexey Molchanov plunged 126 meters (413.39 feet) below the surface of the Mediterranean Sea to set a new freedive world record on Friday, Sept. 26, 2025.
The breath-defying record was set off the coast of Limassol, Cyprus on the fourth day of the AIDA Freediving World Championships.
Molchanov broke his own world record of 125 meters (410.1 feet), set in 2024, in the constant weight bi-fins (CWTB) category, in which divers descend and ascend using only the two fins on their feet, no sleds and no pulling on the guide rope is allowed.
