Abstract
- This first sociological study of freediving adds to the new wave of thalassography.
- Learning to overcome fear and enjoy freediving depends on self-cultivation.
- Underwater freedivers are secluded from sound and sight and turn attention inwards.
- Feeling effects of the water on the body is accompanied with emotional experiences.
- Underwater becomes a therapeutic landscape and a liminal landscape of edgework.
