David Blaine
A freediving adventure. Follow three athletes as they explore the very edge of human potential. Martin Stepanek, Mandy-Rae Cruickshank, George Lopez and their coach Kirk Krack embark on a project to break world and national records in competitive freediving. Freediving is the ultimate extreme sport where failure means unconsciousness. Join in as the athletes push their own physical and psychological limits while pursuing the ultimate test - World and National records. Special appearance made by David Blaine while training for his Drowned Alive stunt. 

 Shot in Grand Cayman in 2006, the day to day struggles and victories of each athlete are followed. Spectacular underwater footage allows the audience to join in as the athletes train and play. This non traditional documentary tells each of their stories as its own chapter. 

 At the elite level freediving is a psychological challenge. Performances are based on how physically ready an athlete is, but more so on where they are mentally. Follow the rise and fall of two world class athletes as they fight to reach their goals. 

 Never before has the inside story of the mental part of the game been so fully documented. One athlete arrives sick and wondering if they can dive, while another has a better start than they ever have before. Where they end up may surprise you.
