MERSIN, TURKEY - OCTOBER 28: Aydincik Town Mayor Ferhat Aktan, Mersin Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Vahap Secer and Mersin Governor Ali Ihsan Su speak at a press conference after internationally renowned Turkish diver Sahika Ercumen broke women’s free-diving world record of 90 meters at the Gilindire Cave in Aydincik town of Turkey's southern Mersin province on October 28, 2019. She dove 100 meters in the icy waters of Gilindire Cave in Turkey's southern province of Mersin. The 34-year-old diver trained at a swimming pool in Mersin before she started training in the cave itself to break the previously held 90 meters record. The cave was discovered by a shepherd in 1999 and dates back to the Ice Age. The freestyle driver said she was overjoyed at earning the Guinness World Record and dedicated her win to Turkish soldiers. (Footage by Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)
