How deep can you go on just one breath of air ?

¡@

Champion freedivers Pipin Ferreras and Umberto Pelizzari dive to an unimaginable depth of over 162 metres on a single breath, the equivalent of a fifty-storey building.

The Omnimax film "OceanMen" takes you into the world of these two awe-inspiring freedivers as they compete against each other, using completely different diving philosophies. Pipin is a No Limit man who uses a weighted sled to plunge himself deeper into the ocean, whereas Umberto relies only on his strength as a swimmer to reach his goal with Constant Weight.

Marvelous computer graphics escorts you on a journey through the divers' bodies to visualize how the human body transforms as the divers descend to record-breaking depths. Hold your breath to accompany the divers as they dive into the deep blue world of danger and stunning beauty with passion, drive and adventure.
