Enough To Give Anyone Vertigo

30/11/2021

Alenka Artnik doesn't need an introduction. She currently is one of the best female freedivers ever to hit the depths, and at 40 years of age, she still has a long way to go in her career. While competing during this year's Vertical Blue in The Bahamas, Alenka teamed up with Alchemy partner Daan Verhoeven and created a short film, "Vertigo".

Here's what Daan said about it: "Part of the fear of heights is that mad desire to jump from them. Alenka Artnik is a Slovenian world record-holding freediver, and the deepest female with a monofin: she has dived on breath-hold to 122 meters. Only a few days after that historic dive, we filmed this exploration of the strange desire to jump whenever we find ourselves at a great height. Turns out we'd both had dreams where we did just that, and we both experienced that in water, you can give into it. This was filmed at Deans' Blue Hole in the Bahamas, which is 200 meters deep, enough to give anyone vertigo".
