In the province of Jeju, South Korea, the Haenyeo In the province of Jeju, South Korea, the Haenyeo are female divers that harvest sea life such as mollusks and seaweed. These women today are descendants of a long line of divers. The tradition dates all the way back to 434 AD. This has caused genetic evolutions, such as increased tolerance to cold temperatures and a protective gene for blood pressure. Diving normally increases blood pressure, but scientists believe that Jeju's exceptionally low stroke mortality rate is related to this gene.

Haenyeo begin diving as young as 11, and continue until they no longer can, which is about 80 years old. Even through pregnancy and a few days after the baby's birth! The waters they regularly dive in are at most 50 degrees on the surface.
