Deans Hole Death

Four days ago there was a very sad accident that happened in Long Island, Bahamas. For many years free divers have been trying to break the record for the furthest down someone could swim in the famous deans blue hole. It is the deepest underwater sinkhole in the world. The depth is 663 feet. This 32 year old man was in a competition for the deepest swim to win $20,000. At 236 feet he lost control of his body and mind set and he became unconscious.  They are still unsure what exactly happened with his body causing him to die. They think that it was lung related and his lungs burst and filled with blood causing him to drown.
