Hey, I'm not sure if this is posted already.
I timed my longest note at about 25 seconds. What about you guys?

It depends on your dynamic/speed of air.I played soccer for years. they made me play midfield. I ran 13 miles a game and my lungs took a beating.
Is it pretty long to hold a note for that long? I'm just wondering...
Yes, another good point about range. Higher notes possibly more difficult to control but you’ll be able to hold them longer. @jbtsax has summarised the exercise nicely.I’ve never actually timed it but I’ve been a singer and athlete my entire life so can hold a note for a long time. I’m in agreement that a lot depends on the velocity of sound. A full out fortissimo (fff) takes a lot more breath than a piano (ppp). Also range needs to be taken into consideration too. The note your holding has a huge impact also.

Yes, halfway up the stairs.Are you suggesting a crime was Kermited?
A pedant would say halfway down...Yes, halfway up the stairs.
An old pedant would say they were both halfway up and halfway down, which way were they going and what were they going for anyway.A pedant would say halfway down...
