In 2015, he set an Australian record with an 85-metre free-immersion dive – a record that he has gone on to break a further four times. More recently, though, Stern had a chance to enjoy an altogether different diving experience when he took a dip with a humpback whale in the glassy waters off the coast of Nuku’alofa in Tonga. “I have swam with other species of whales in the past, but besides doing my deepest dives to 106 metres, this was the best diving experience of my life,” Stern told us via email.
