Inspired by my new hero Ranulph Fiennes,this guy (or mad b@stard in my eyes)is set to swim from Dakaar in Senegal to Brazil. 10 hours a day and 1900 miles.

Mental if you ask me, i work in the Atlantic and sharks are not uncommon. (And Pirates further up from me)

Good luck to him but nobody has suceeded before "officially".

Be surprised if he does succeed but good luck to him.

I read a lot about folk who swim the English channel and I find it quite awe inspiring. The training involved, and having to pick the right moment to set out etc. F.UCK SWIMMING THE ATLANTIC.
