The Mysterious Disappearance of Free Diver Natalia Molchanova

  • Summary

  • Natalia Molchanova (Russian: Наталья Вадимовна Молчанова) was a Russian champion free diver, multiple world record holder, and the former president of the Russian Free Dive Federation. Natalia was the world’s most decorated free diver, holding 41 world records and winning 23 gold medals during her career.


    Free diving is considered one of the deadliest extreme sports. Free divers may descend more than 300 ft (100 m) without using an oxygen tank. At such depths, a diver’s heart rate begins to slow, their blood vessels shrink and their lungs compress. Divers often have to be helped to the surface and revived because diving to such depths squeezes the lungs and can cause major damage..
