A Breathtaking Record
Congratulations to Amber Bourke on your Guinness World Record!
In August 2024, Australian freediver Amber Bourke set the record for the longest underwater walk with one breath. At 370 feet 2 inches, Amber covered a distance greater than that of an American football field!
From the bottom of our big blue hearts, we sincerely thank Amber for raising $2,000 for marine conservation during the recordbreaking journey.
“Being a freediver, we spend so much time in the ocean, and the ocean has been such a big part of my life, and I just felt I wanted to give back a little bit,” says Amber.
In October 2024, Guinness World Records officially recognised Amber’s incredible achievement.
