Just another day for the Coast Guard

An ultra-marathoner’s attempt to “run” from Florida to Bermuda in an inflatable bubble was cut short when the Coast Guard towed him back to land – for the second time.

would you not just bake inside that thing?

coast guard should fine him for littering the sea with plastic garbage. If he wants to die in the ocean he should do it like everyone else

Congratulations! You are being rescued. Please do not resist.

This sounds like it could be a fun experience for a day, weather permitting. More than that is insanity.

does he shit inside it??

He should do it again if he managed to raise $144k for charity!

I mean that's how much was spent on his rescue...

That hammock in the middle of that bubble... That sounds like an amazing nights sleep.

Let the boy run across the ocean in a bubble!

Just leave them.

How does he breathe, and if there are valves, how do they let in only air and not water, considering the ball is spinning?

Is this really a rescue? Is there anything inherently dangerous about going out to sea in an enclosed bubble with rations?

Love the bit where taxpayers are footing the bill to save him.

Wow the comment section does not reinforce the very little faith I have left in humanity .

Did he think fishes in the ocean are pre-cooked and would just swim into his hands willingly ?
