    There's no way i see him finishing it. I think after a while when he see's how long it really is he'll quit. That and the cold, he's mad with no wetsuit. He look's totally out of shape.
    But we could give him benefit of the doubt and say well maybe he's been swimming since he was a kid, and he could be a great swimmer. But still i think he lacks the fitness and without proper insulation. Vaseline is good, but it's not that good. I wonder how many tubs of it he's taking with him...
