Saddam is 28 years old, a graduate of the Faculty of Tourism, Suez canal University, class of 2010. He completed his military service by 2012 and travelled then to Sharm el-Sheikh where he became a diving instructor and settled there. He developed a burning ambition to achieve more and found it in himself to take the challenge of staying the longest time under the water head on.
He trained hard and arranged a team of professionals that helped him and received diving medical support from the local recompression chamber. In his first trial he managed 30 hours, soon after, the second trial got him up to 53 hours and 3 minutes and finally he managed 76 hours successfully! He is working hard to reach 150 hours under the water breaking the current 142 hours world record.
