Humans 'freedive' to over the 100m quite regularly - obviously those who are fit enough. No problems are found with the bones - so yes this is possible. Still amazing to think that a toad would do it? Why I ask? Food? Hybernation? Do toads hybernate? Guess 100m down the water temparture is quite steady all year round?
