How long can you hold your breath?

Asked by trainerboy (1307points) March 18th, 2008

I can hold mine for 2 minutes. I know this may be too personal for some so if it is, don’t answer, but for the rest, what is the max time for you?

You can hold it longer if you hyperventilate. Take in a number of deep breaths to boost your oxygen level before holding your breath.
