Answer:

Skeptical

Explanation:

When a person is "incredulous," this means that he is finding something difficult to believe. In this case, the character realizes that he can hold his breath for two minutes, and this leaves him incredulous. This means that he cannot believe this to be the case. The word that most closely resembles this meaning is the word "skeptical."
