Only a month ago, a US researcher achieved a remarkable feat by spending more than 74 days living underwater, setting a new record. Joe Dituri, a former US Navy diver and specialist in biomedical engineering, chose to reside in a 55 square meter area located 30 feet beneath the surface near the Florida Keys starting from March 1. His initial plan was to stay underwater for 100 days, and now he has successfully completed that duration. To share his unique experience, Dituri recently took to social media and posted about his remarkable journey.
