Bell & Ross replica watches have plumbed the depths of the ocean, and conquered the skies, marking significant and demanding moments of human acheivement. It is perhaps no surprise then, that the Swiss watch brand has chosen to equip intrepid French parachutist Michel Fournier in his upcoming stratospheric skydive, which if successful, will smash all existing high altitude sky dives including the pressurized 31,300meter jump of American Joseph Kittinger, and the 24,483meter free parachute dive of Russian Evgeny Andreyev. Both of these records have stood since 1960. In late May 2008, over Saskatchewan, Canada, Michel Fournier will ascend within a pressurized capsule attached to a balloon, to an nearspace altitude of 40,000 meters, or nearly 25 miles! Upon completion of his monumental leap, Fournier will be able to claim several world records at once; these include experiencing the longest freefall, which will have a duration of 6 minutes and 25 seconds, and being the first skydiver to surpass the speed of sound. Not just a colossal milestone for the human spirit, "The Big Jump" promises to be a treasure trove for science and medicine, as it will provide invaluable insight into how the body performs and reacts under exceptional and unusual stresses. The Bell & Ross BR 02 Instrument watch will accompany Fournier during the course of the historic "Big Jump". Just as intensive conditioning of mind and body are crucial to the success and survival of Michel Fournier himself, no ordinary timepiece can be expected to endure the drastic pressure variations, excruciatingly low temperatures, Gforces, and cosmic radiation that this event will subject it to. In every aspect, both inside and out, this Bell & Ross timepiece has been uncompromisingly designed to handle such stresses and provide absolute reliability. More information on "The Big Jump" can be obtained at: “The 1st competitors organized was in 1996 in Pleasant, France, in which I dwell,"Nery recalls. “That's exactly where every thing started off then the movements grew. While in the previous 5 or 6 many years it's develop into a giant establishment and now we've got competitions all around the planet each and every week."Simply said, freediving will be the apply of breathhold underwater diving. It may consist of routines including spear fishing, freedive photography and in some cases some kinds of snorkeling. Nevertheless the excessive activity of freediving or “competitive apnea"has garnered by far the most manifeste consideration. Apnea is defined as “the suspension of exterior respiration."Today, two entire world associations, the Worldwide Affiliation for Growth of Apnea (AIDA) as well as the Globe Underwater Federation (CMAS), govern the game. It consists of pool and depth disciplines. Nery competes mainly inside the depth self-discipline, a cetegory which characteristics subdisciplines which include Continuous Bodyweight Apnea (CWT). In CWT, the athlete should dive to depth subsequent a tutorial line that she or he will not be granted to actively use throughout the dive. Divers use each footdriven bifins and monofins to aid propel them downward. “Constant Weight"indicates that divers aren't granted to drop any diving weights for the duration of a dive. Other subdisciplines incorporate CWT with out bout and freeimmersion apnea, in which divers utilize a vertical tutorial rope to pull to depth and again on the area, Guillaume competes in all a few of such problems but it's in CWT exactly where his earth information have already been set and wherever he focuses his vitality.
