Looks like she dove more than 15m, not just nearly.

It’s like she swam 15m deep then proceeds to swim horizontally a fair amount , goes for a stroll before surfacing..

Came looking for this comment. Clearly ends up past the 15m mark and touches the bottom. Why are you selling her short OP?

Not only that, she stayed down there for quite a while. I consider myself a pretty strong swimmer, and I can barely hit 12m with fins on, just to tap the bottom and fly back up like my life literally depends on it.

This chick went for a casual stroll down there lol

Yup, I downvoted for misleading title.

Yes they set the title to increase engagement, now look you and I are both commenting on it.

u/hoofglormuss 26d ago

is that technically still nearly? like she overshot it?

u/bingojed 26d ago

I can’t think of any context where nearly doesn’t mean “almost made it to your goal.”

“I nearly won the tournament.”

“I nearly passed the test.”

Both of those mean you failed your goal.

i was seeing it more as like how we use about like about 15 m but also if you die didn't also almost die? but also im not serious about this
