00:00We're in our 60s, still fit and active, but we decided to start home on bold free diving adventures.

00:19We wanted to show by example that it's possible to continue free diving when you get older.

00:26That you can be even better as you get older.

00:29But we had no real interest in competing as free divers. Our goal is simply to enjoy the ocean.

00:42We've had some amazing adventures.

00:46Free diving the Museum of Bunchwater Rack on the Great Palace of Leaves.

00:51The USAT Liberty Wreck off to Lumban.

00:56The Japanese Shipwreck of Hamid.

00:59The Underwater Sculpture Installation Nest.

01:05And the Sun Can Be Peel off Gilly Mino.

01:09The Majestic Manta Rays of Noosa Panida.

01:14Well sharks have Sally Bay.

01:19Free diving isn't like a lot of other sports where you lose your strength, speed and ability to get older.

01:29Being older when having slower metabolism can actually help with free diving.

01:35I recently turned 70 and learned of a German woman who started free diving at 71 and is now world champion at the age of 80.

01:48Competition is what motivated her and that's fine.

01:52Your stories like these that inspire us and make us want to keep on going.

01:59Every day I was doing was different.

02:03We hope you might be inspired by our example.

02:10I'm already 70.

02:13I've still got a whole free diving cleaner hit of me.

02:17And in my 60s I'm looking forward to getting even more experience.

02:23I'm not gonna be inspired by your girl.

02:24I'm looking forward to getting crispy.

02:25It's just a

02:37people's life.

02:39It's just a people's life.

02:40I'm not going to keep going.

02:42No easy.

02:43That's a people's life.

02:44It's just one time.

02:46It's just one time.
