Base Jumping at Dean's Blue Hole

My daughter sent me the link to this clip. Pretty cool or crazy, your choice.

Guillaume Nery base jumping at Dean's Blue Hole, filmed on breath hold by Julie Gautier

I don't think this guy got all the way to the bottom of this sink hole. The bottom of Dean's Blue Hole is 663 feet down. Light only makes it to 300 feet, and the world free dive record is only slightly more than that. I wonder how deep the ocean floor at the top of the hole is?

Update March 2017 added video caption. A more recent post about this couple.

The hole starts at about 18 feet underwater.....if you look around you can find interviews where he states that he did not go to the bottom, nor was it his intent to have people think that. He says no one will ever get to the bottom during a freedive (and come back that is)....neat video nonetheless...
