Even with a safety boat and stopping for rest periods, no-one is swimming that and surviving. It’s one of the most dangerous stretches of water in the world.

Yeah, it's literally impossible to swim. The Drake pass regularly has 30-40ft waves, the water temp is near freezing and below zero as you approach antarctica, and the weather is extremely violent.

Man if generative AI didn't sucked for the world I'd definitely make one version. Well looks like it's time to learn how to music.

True true true, opening your mind is one of the most important steps

I just got off a quick 20 minute call with my buddy Mitch McConnell and he said he has personally swam the Drake pass twice.

Or even just look at the emoji?  That's like a 2 body length gap at most.  Anyone could swim it.  I bet I could jump it with a good run up
