Quick ways to oxygen saturate the body?

The record for holding breath underwater is 24 minutes after inhaling liquid oxygen for about 19 minutes. This amount of time could prevent a large amount of drowning deaths especially in sports. Obviously most people don't inhale large quantities of oxygen immediately before they touch the water so is there any way to oxygen saturate the body for an hour or to quickly saturate the body?

Man, you are retarded. That time is from someone doing absolutely nothing inside of a tank after months of preparation.

So your shitty premise is that someone is going to saturate their body to fall in the water and start drowning without moving, when in real life they are going to be swimming/consuming o2 at a rate way higher than basal rates.

Let me repeat what you just said:
>The record for holding breath underwater is 24 minutes

>or to quickly saturate the body?
Breathing.

How does this help anyone?

Many have died from doing breathing exercises in water and losing consciousness. Be careful.

Bullshit, you'd die if you did that.

You can't saturate your body with oxygen; it is not a thing; your oxygen levels are within a reasonable range no matter how much you try to increase them. It doesn't matter anyway. What makes you feel the need to breathe is the accumulated CO2, which needs to be excreted. Regardless of how much oxygen you have left, CO2 will make you feel like you're drowning, and CO2 is produced in higher quantities the more you move around.
>This amount of time could prevent a large amount of drowning deaths especially in sports.
Actually you're wrong; it would make more people drown. If you try to breathe more before going into the water, what you will do is end up with less CO2, but roughly the same amount of oxygen. In pic related, red is oxygen and blue is CO2; green is the level of CO2 where you need to breathe, and orange is the level of O2 where you lose consciousness. As you can see, normally you enter the water in a normal level of CO2 inside you, and that makes you need to breathe before you die. On the lower graph, you enter the water after hyperventilating, and you die before feeling the need to breathe. You can feel stupid now. Never post in this fine board again.

You can. Its just basically hyperventilating before you go down. Look at the pearl divers in okinawa. They're not down there for 30 minutes like op is asking but they're pushing the limits of human endurance underwater.
Really the trick is just swimming as efficiently as possible and tamping down the panic signals you get.

Gee wizz that is edgy.

No, you can not; it has been measured.

That just decreases the CO2 and kills you in the way I described. That's how most shallow water drownings happen.

I looked at them and they seem to be completely unrelated to the topic.
>They're not down there for 30 minutes like op is asking
No, they sure are not.
> but they're pushing the limits of human endurance underwater.
Because the water is cold. Wikipedia says nothing remarkable about breath holding. I looked up a video and they just talk and jump into the water, swim for like 40 seconds and come out.
>Really the trick is just swimming as efficiently as possible and tamping down the panic signals you get.
Is this something for which you can provide peer reviewed evidence, or just another of your mistaken ideas? Because up to this point you've been wrong about pretty much everything you said.
