PORT BLAIR, June 10 — A team of divers in India’s Andaman and Nicobar Islands has set a Guinness World Record by constructing a 73-foot (22.3-meter) underwater human tower, marking a rare achievement in the world of adventure sports and diving.
The record-setting feat was accomplished at Swaraj Dweep, where divers spent months preparing for the challenge. Participants worked together beneath the surface to form the tallest underwater human pyramid ever recorded, requiring exceptional coordination, balance, and teamwork.
Organizers said the attempt demanded extensive training and strict safety protocols, as divers had to maintain stability while managing underwater conditions such as buoyancy, visibility, and movement. The structure remained intact long enough for officials to verify the record.
The achievement has brought international attention to the Andaman Islands, a destination already known for its coral reefs, marine biodiversity, and diving opportunities. Tourism officials say the record highlights the region’s growing reputation as a hub for adventure and underwater activities.
Supporters believe the accomplishment could boost interest in marine tourism and attract more visitors to the islands. The record also showcases the skill and dedication of the diving community involved in the effort.
Guinness World Records confirmed the achievement, placing the Andaman Islands among the locations associated with unique and ambitious world-record feats.
