Man Spends 93 Days at Bottom of the Atlantic - Now 10 Years Younger

A scientist says spending 93 days underwater has turned back the aging clock and left him 10 years younger.

Retired naval officer Joseph Dituri has spent more than three months living inside a 100sqft pod in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean. His time spent below the waves was part of a study group to research the effects of a pressurised environment on the human body. It also gave him the opportunity to beat the previous world record for living underwater, dwarfing the previous record holder's 73 days.

After getting back to dry land, Dituri was assessed by medics who measured his vitals and telomeres - the DNA sequence that attach to the end of chromosomes.

Telomeres usually dwindle as we age, but Dituri's are now 20 per cent longer than when he submerged in March.
