Humans and other mammals have a Diving Response (also known as The Mammalian Dive Response/Reflex) consisting of a set of reflexes that are activated when our face is cooled (such as by the water during a dive) or if we hold our breath. The diving reflex is a clever physiological mechanism enabling the body to manage and tolerate a lower level of oxygen. – Tiny Fox Lab Facts
