    To celebrate Saint Valentines Day we present to you the Longest Underwater Kiss (mouth to mouth breathing)!

    Antonio de la Rosa Suarez (Spain) was able to stay underwater sat at the bottom of a tank for 7 min 1 sec by being given air through kisses from Esperanza Ruiz Aranda and Sonia Matesanz (both Spain) who took it in turns to swim down to him. The attempt was made on the set of ‘Guinness World Records’ in Madrid, Spain, on 28 January 2009.

    The record has since been broken by Nikolay Linder (Germany) at the Tauchcenter Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany on 18 March 2012 with a time of 20 minutes and 11 seconds.
