Glad I switched #TheDeepestBreath this evening. A beautifully crafted, accurately told story centred around the bizarre world of record free diving and the lunatics who take part in it. 10/10 👏 pic.twitter.com/CDxewTPybd

I can't recommend #TheDeepestBreath enough. It's an emotional journey into the fringe extreme sport that is freediving and the two people whose lives seemed destined to intertwine. Spectacular visuals and a thoroughly compelling narrative. pic.twitter.com/kzQyHljYoC

If you want to know when I last cried, it was a few minutes ago at the end of The Deepest Breath. What a film, one of the great documentaries. #TheDeepestBreath

Sat down last night to watch #thedeepestbreath and holy shit!
I’ve been trying to write some sort of impassioned words about it for the last 30 minutes while I’m waiting for my flight but everything I’ve written falls short of how it actually made me feel. It made me feel a lot pic.twitter.com/HrvCYUnvjv
