A person who spent 100 days dwelling underwater at a Florida Keys lodge for scuba divers has resurfaced.

Dr Joseph Dituri, a college professor, has set a brand new file for the longest time dwelling underwater with out depressurisation throughout his keep at Jules' Undersea Lodge.

The lodge was submerged beneath 30 ft of water in a Key Largo lagoon.

The diving explorer and medical researcher surpassed the earlier mark of 73 days, two hours and 34 minutes set by two Tennessee professors in 2014.

Speaking on his expertise underwater, Dr Dituri stated: "It was by no means concerning the file.

"It was about extending human tolerance for the underwater world and for an isolated, confined, extreme environment."

After 74 days underneath the water, Dr Dituri was listed on the Guinness World Records web site.

The record-breaking agency stated on its web site: "The longest time spent living in an underwater fixed habitat is 74 days, and was achieved by Joseph Dituri (USA), who entered Jules' Undersea Lodge, a steel-and-glass facility anchored at a depth of 9.14m (30 ft) just off the coast of Key Largo, Florida, USA, on 1 March 2023, as verified on 13 May 2023."

Now Dr Dituri has hit 100 days, the Marine Resources Development Foundation, which owns the lodge, will ask Guinness to certify the milestone.

Dr Dituri's record-breaking mission, dubbed Project Neptune 100, was organised by the muse.

Unlike a submarine, which makes use of know-how to maintain the within stress about the identical as on the floor, the lodge's inside is about to match the upper stress discovered underwater.

Project Neptune is a long-term examine which appears to be like on the physiological and psychological results of compressors on the human physique, and it makes use of "the uniqueness of the mission and location to bring more awareness of current marine research and the importance of conservation of our ocean's resources and processes."

In order to maintain observe of how his physique responded, Dr Dituri carried out each day experiments to watch his response to the stress all through his time underwater.
