Crazy, or inspired? I certainly wish him well, hope he manages it safely.

Pah, he's not even doing it in one go.

I'd say so. He's named one of his children after a board game.

Insanely difficult I would imagine. But it sounds like they'll have a boat next to him and he'll spend 12 hours a day on that, so it's not that great an achievement IMO. I could do it eventually if that boat and safety team was always there.

You have to question how they'll handle bad weather though. Put him on a string attached to the boat?

Not looked, but I assume Cluedo?

He is mad though. Good luck to him for the swim.
