On Tuesday, February 23, he swam a record 80 meters under the ice, without a wetsuit, cap or weights to ease the dive. David Vencl said he was given a white card by a judge from Pure Apnea (an international freediving organization) for the dive, meaning his performance could be a new world record. However, the video footage still needs to be reviewed before a possible new record can be confirmed.
David Vencl is very keenly interested in a healthy lifestyle, which is intrinsically linked to diet. Despite a healthy and functional diet, he got to a plant-based diet. Gradually, he also began to perceive ethical and ecological problems and came to veganism. By the time he changed his eating habits, he felt improvement and a steady supply of energy. In one interview, the Czech athlete stated that, in his opinion, each of us can be healthy and thrive on a plant-based diet. Kor in the middle of Europe in the 21st century.
