Gonfi i polmoni, pieghi le gambe e ti prepari a trattenere il fiato, a lungo, per metri e metri e metri, sempre più giù, oltre i pesci colorati e le gorgonie, giù, fino a quando la luce si affievolirà e poi sparirà, fino a quando il freddo ti annebbierà la mente e rischierà di farti perdere la concentrazione.

On our boat, for 15 hours, we thought that we had found out how we were going to die. By a slim margin, we managed to survive that incredible cornerstone event in each of our lives.
