Amelia sets world record by blowing most air rings underwater

The attempt was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be

When I practiced, I was practicing by myself and I would count the bubbles

but I had never had anybody else count them. So the number that I had in my head was different to the actual number of bubbles

that wouldn't break up at the surface. So when I went to do the attempt and I tried the first time, I couldn't even do it

My background in the area of bubble brink making comes from free diving

When you free dive, you learn techniques to expand your lungs, you learn, or with the training you learn to control the contractions that happen when you need to breathe

So all that helps for making bubble brains. And the technique is really easy

First, the shallower you go, the easier it is. Trying a bulwring at 5 meters is much harder than a meter and a half

But you also then have to figure out what is the ideal depth

Because if you're too shallow, then the bubbles will break each other up

All you do is you put some pressure in your cheeks, and you stick your tongue out and you suck it back in So I do the okay And then the next thing that you have to do is get a rhythm

If you do them too fast, the bubbles will kill each other and they have to make it fast through one meter

But if you look, if I had one to the surface, which is the other attempt

there's one that goes through the other one and one of them dies

So the speed is really important for the survival of the bubble

And then as you're going, so your lungs are getting empty and more empty and more empty and by the end

my lungs are beyond where you are in an exhale. So, and then more

Growing up and through my life, I've never been an athlete. I was a kid that failed physical education several times and that was never picked for any

I never picked for any jeans and I can't do a push up

I can't run very far. And then suddenly I found my superpower

which is holding my breath or diving or making bubble rings. And then it was pretty cool so that I worked for something

and wow, I got a record
