Your move, creep.



It's called static apnea, and every photo of it looks like someone just found a dead body.


I used to get yelled at for doing this when I was a kid but now people compete at it. Some of them get so good at it they they can fall asleep, which I guess is static sleep apnea.

The world record for it is over 24 minutes, but that's only possible if you breath pure oxygen for half an hour beforehand. Without pure oxygen the record is just under half of that.

That's a long loving time. When I did it as a kid I thought holding your breath for more than 5 minutes was impossible.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

What sucks the most about this loving horseshit catching on is the fact that that position is actually the optimal way to hide an unwanted pool boner (known as "bone chilling"). Essentially, it hides the boner by putting it at a hard to spot angle that is generally not available outside of the context of a pool (tried planking to hide a street boner in 2012 - yipes!), loosens up your muscles so as to decrease blood flow to boner, and on the off chance anyone swims under you, it'll just look like weird water physics stuff happening in your swim trunks.

Also, any loving piece of poo poo trying to say you can start snoozing while doing this is lying through their teeth. No man has ever fallen asleep hard.

King,

Its 2020 and poppin wood at the pool needn't be concealed through advanced green beret survival techniques. Men get aroused and thats okay. Just chill on the side of the pool and stay natural and confident, bro. If someone notices thats okay. We cant always control our bods, but we can control our mindset, chief. 100.

We called it "dead man's float" down in Florida. As an adult, thinking about six year olds joking about dead floaters is the most florida thing.

I used to do this growing up and whenever I want to spend some time at the pool. You can't really just hold your breath underwater for a long time unless you are comfortable and train for it.

Just even for 45 seconds to a minute you are just yourself and your thoughts. Water around you and air above you with your eyes closed. Man I miss being that peaceful right now making this post. I need to meditate
