Sh*t gets real: swimming underwater naked in the arctic while frolicking with whales
I'm posting this here because its very, very awesome, and I didn't want it to go unnoticed outside of the diving forum.
Naked female scientist swimming with Belugas
Under the pretense of hoping to better interact with Beluga whales, which according to some logic do not like clothes, a Russian diver, Natalia Avseenko, swam with them naked.
The accompanying pictures are beautiful. Also incredible? Through her training, Natalia Avseenko can stay under water in 1.5 C water for ten minutes. [mind ... BLOWN]

That is the most amazing thing. Beautiful pictures, and she is so brave! I'm cold just looking at this.

I'm not a big fan of nudity, but that picture is beautiful to me because there's absolutely zero sexual connotation whatsoever and I admire it when people push themselves to their limits.

The comments on the article are interesting... I'm not sure I believe this either...

Kae-Leah, the whole point of fine nude art is that is doesnt = sexuality
-
Holy crap. Seriously. That is nuts.
Although it sounds like that article has its facts mixed up. They said she can hold her breath for 10 minutes and 40 seconds. I think that's longer than the current womens world record for breathholding, and at subfreezing temperatures that seems even more unlikely.

Hmmm, a Russian underwater filmmaker who recorded her underwater swims with the Belugas recently put up a video of her swims on YouTube.
In it you can see how she accomplished such long underwater times. She buddy breathed with a scuba diver.
It's in Russian, with no subtitles available, but still, an amazing video.
