Boggle Fogle? I like the sound of that.

I hope the posh c*** drowns after having his genitals chewed off by a conger eel.

Hope he doesn't have to wait too long for his certificate and that little patch for his mum to sew on to his towel. When I got my 25 metres backstroke it seemed like ages before I got my certificate and that little patch for my mum to sew on to my towel.

It was another Ben (Ben Lecomte) who first swam the atlantic in 1998, for him the Atlantic was mental and physical exhaustion and he swore "never again" just to put into perspective what Fogles up against.Lecomte was tracked by a shark for days .Im not sure if Ben Lecomte has set out on his latest challenge to swim the Pacific but apperntly mid may 2012 so he should have started. "Lecomte's Pacific swim will begin in Tokyo, Japan, and be completed in San Francisco, Calif. -- a 5,500-mile trek that should take five to six months depending on ocean conditions. His current training consists of swimming 3-5 hours per day, six days per week. During his Pacific swim, his body will require a consumption of 8,000 calories per day." Lecomte's web page with news ,blog etc very inspiring indeed, talk about dedication. http://www.thelongestswim.com/

Is he doing it for charity? If so, good luck to him.

If not, he should stop poncing around and go out and get a real job.
