The average person can hold there breath for about 30 to 40 seconds, not that long uh. But some people mainly free divers who have been diving for a long period of time their lungs and heart have expanded and got used to holding their breath for longer times. There was a case in NYC which a man for the Guinness Records held his breath for 15 minutes.

What is the largest diameter the average human can hold?

With one hand, the average male human cannot hold and grasp a basketball from the top without it falling. The standard basketball is a little over 9 inches in diameter. Given that women will have smaller hands on average, the diameter that the average human can hold and prevent from falling, and this is complete conjecture, should be between 5-7 inches. But first, the average human hand size would have to be determined. With two hands, the largest diameter object the average human could hold would be significantly larger, dependent on the wingspan of the average human, the surface texture and the weight of the object, and the average height and strength of the average human .
