The deepest dives made by whales have been recorded to be down to

depths of an incredible 2000m (or 6000 feet.) The Sperm whale which can

dive this deep may even dive deeper (it's just not yet been recorded.) The

deepest a free diving human has been is 209m which makes the depth of the

Sperm whales' dive even more amazing.
