>Scientists once thought humans could swim to a maximum depth of 30m on a single breath. Amber Bourke has gone deeper than 70m and physiology alone can’t explain why

And then there is the fastest 60M sprint record, by an Asian. And many other example as well as you grow older. Especially in biology.

To the point in certain sense, some so called science are more like religions.


The headline is broken in an amusing way: "the woman who can descend into the sea on one breath" describes half the world's adult population!
