    How long can you hold your breath?

    The title says it all; How long can you hold your breath? Use a timer or such, no cheating!

    Mine was 1 minute 22 seconds, I think it was my very max.

    40 seconds for me, though I'm as close to being fit as a flying deer.

    I hit 1:18, but I think I might be able to do better with a little prep.

    Released the massive gush of air that I held in my lungs at 2 minutes sharp.
    I could've done more by re-breathing the air I already had in me, but that kinda felt like cheating. (you don't take up 100% of the oxygen in the air you breathe in in one breath, the majority of the oxygen contained in the air flows out when you exhale. You can get the "extra" oxygen by breathing out into your mouth, then back in. Not the healthiest though considering the Co2)

    That doesn't quite work as you can change the speed your computer registers keypresses, or how I should put it. For example, you can set it to print out 2 characters a second or 5 characters per second, different settings produce different results.

    I wouldn't do that if I were you. The brain cells of a non-professional start dying after 4 minutes without oxygen.
