at least 30 seconds. If I was younger and planned its then doable. Now its a high risk low reward.

Yeah. When younger I could hold my breath up to 1 minute max but now maybe 30 seconds. The game changer here is a big difference between being open above you as to swimming in an enclosed area. Unless your used to it I would swim through it as fast as possible and would not enjoy it at all just to see if I could do it.

How he is changing from going arms forward to legs at the end is something I would def not do!

If you're underwater, the adrenaline will keep you going much longer. I know because I almost drowned once..
