Maybe he forgot what he was doing

His breathe reflex must have kicked in before he got his little stupid head out of the water.
I'll stick with practicing guitar and bass.

As kid's, we used to hold our breath while going through a local tunnel while in a car...
Nowadays we would die from traffic slowdowns.

As for that not breathing, he's still practicing.

Kinda difficult to beat Abel's old world record, though.

Nope. Not much of a loss. He was probably doing something he saw in a movie.

He just didn't count on doing it forever.
