The Longest Swim

Although there is controversy about the exact distance actually performed, this is still an exploit to admire.

Basically, while swimming, he imagines himself in another place he’d like to be, and try to imagine all the details of what his sensations would be like, as well as behavior of people, dress style, expressions, etc.
