Orlando Bloom freediving - or "I got photobombed by Legolas!"

A while back, Orlando was filming for a TV show called "Orlando Bloom: To the Edge", in which he does some extreme things, like wing suit flying, mountain climbing, and freediving. His freediving teachers were Camila Jaber and William Trubridge (he chose well) and so during the Vertical Blue competition that William organises and Camila competes in, Orlando was there to train. He did really well - turns out he's a natural - so when the comp was almost over, we asked if he wanted to do the last dive. He said yes and the result you can see here.
The episodes of To the Edge are streaming now on Peacock, my friend Alex St-Jean filmed the underwater action beautifully, and it's a great show.
