Key Largo, FL- In a remarkable feat of endurance and scientific exploration, Dr. Joseph Dituri has shattered records by spending an unprecedented amount of time living underwater without depressurization.


The accomplished marine biologist and adventurer achieved this remarkable milestone during his recent stay at Jules’ Undersea Lodge, located in a key Largo Lagoo, submerged beneath 30 feet of water.


Dr. Dituri’s groundbreaking accomplishment has captured the attention of the scientific community and the general public alike. Dr. Dituri, a seasoned diver with extensive experience in underwater research, embarked on his daring underwater mission on May 15th, 2023.


Equipped with state-of-the-art technology and a wealth of scientific knowledge, he aimed to push the boundaries of human endurance while studying the effects of extended underwater habitation on the human body.

Throughout his record-breaking stay, Dr. Dituri faced numerous challenges, both physical and mental. Living in the depths of the ocean presented him with a constant battle against high pressure and the absence of natural sunlight.


However, his exceptional physical fitness and meticulous planning allowed him to overcome these hurdles and set a new precedent. In a specially designed living environment within Jules’ Undersea Lodge, Dr. Dituri’s daily routine included conducting scientific experiments, documenting marine life, and maintaining his personal well-being.


His habitat provided him with all the necessities of life, including food, water, and a comfortable living space, while ensuring his safety and the ability to communicate with the surface.


Throughout his record-setting underwater adventure, Dr. Dituri remained in constant communication with a team of scientists and medical experts stationed on the surface. Regular check-ins and medical evaluations helped monitor his physical and mental health, ensuring his well-being throughout the duration of his stay.


Dr. Dituri’s incredible feat surpasses the previous record of 14 days, 17 hours, and 50 minutes set by another renowned marine biologist in 2017. His achievement not only highlights the resilience of the human body but also paves the way for further research and exploration in underwater habitats.


Speaking about his groundbreaking accomplishment, Dr. Dituri expressed his gratitude to the team of scientists, medical experts, and support staff who made his stay possible. He also emphasized the importance of further underwater research in understanding the delicate ecosystems and uncovering the mysteries of the deep sea.
