To Swim Across English Channel He lost legs and his arms in a freak electrical accident. 42-year old Phillipe Croizon decided to swim across the English Channel. And he was inspired to attempt the swim after watching a documentary about crossing the Channel from his hospital bed. ‘This is a dream and I’m determined to fulfill it,’ he said, showing off his specially-designed flippers. ‘At first my parents thought the idea was mad, but I was determined to carry on. The more I practice in the sea, the more I feel confident.’ Unbelievable that two years ago, Philippe was hard to finish a return in swimming pool. Brave as he is, Philippe has been swimming for up to 30 hours a week for the past two years, and building up his body strength in his local gym.
