Swimming the English Channel

Swimming the English Channel has a long history. The first man who successfully swam the Channel was Captain Webb, an Englishman. This was in August 1875. He reached France 21 hours 45 minutes after entering the water at Dover. Thirty-six years had passed before another man, Berdges, crossed the Channel.

Swimming the Channel is not easy. Though the Channel is 21 miles wide, swimmers usually have to swim 30 to 35 miles, because of tides. As the sea is usually cold, swimmers cover their bodies with grease. The purpose of swimmers is not only to cross the Channel, but to set a new record. Not only men but women

swimmers have also set Channel records.
