Turkish diver, dubbed as the "Aquarium Man, " prepares to break a new world record of the longest open saltwater scuba dive in cold water on April 23.
Together with his 20 - people strong team, Cem Karabay, a lifelong lover of the sea, is working very hard every day at Underwater Marine Park in Gökçeada Island, the largest island of Turkey.
The existing record in the same category was held by Norwegian diver Nils - Roar Selnes, who spent 15 hours and 10 minutes underwater in Eidkjosen, Norway in 2016.
Karabay's goal is to eliminate Selnes's record by spending 23 hours and 4 minutes underwater. "If I break this record, I would have broken the hardest record in my life, " he told Anadolu Agency.
