According to the British media on April 4, Julia Petrik, 38, is one of Russia's top free-diving experts. Not long ago, she cut through a 30-centimeter-thick layer of ice on the surface of the White Sea in Russia, and then dived into the freezing seawater at minus 2 degrees Celsius through an ice hole. Julia even climbed onto the back of a white whale that happened to be passing by, "riding" the whale as it swam underwater for a few seconds. The breathtaking scenes of the Russian beauty "dancing" with the whale left the press photographers speechless.
