How long can you hold your breath for?
Use this video for an easy way to time yourself

If you like me and you beat the tape easily, then time yourself with a watch and say what you got

I got 2 mins 30 seconds

First time is always about 1 minute, but the second/third/fourth time I can get over 2 minutes.
