Freediving is by far and away the toughest sport mentally. You are underwater for up to seven minutes, and a lot of thoughts go through your brain, and you need to be completely calm and relaxed. In any other sport, you use increased adrenalin, but in freediving, you have to drop the heart rate down to 20 beats per minute.

Freediving can be extremely dangerous. It's got an incredibly high fatality rate outside of competition. But there's never been a fatality in competition. In terms of spear fishing and people who train by themselves, it's the second most dangerous sport in the world after base jumping. If you black out by yourself, you drown.

I can hold my breath for 7 minutes and 5 seconds.

I've done a lot of other shows in the U.S. that have been great, but I knew that 'Roadies' was something special. I feel very, very fortunate.

It's not good to stretch when you're cold. Get your heart rate up, and once you finish, take time to stretch and let your body calm down.

When you're an actor, you're mollycoddled, and you're treated with kid gloves. Everyone is like, 'Can I get you some water?' or 'Can I put on your slippers?'
