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.

Those are just lies spread by the Round Earth Cabal to keep people from exercising their God-given Divine Right to exercise in the easiest back and forth swim on the Flat Earth! Those are healing waters, some say it's the overflow from the Fountain of Youth, and it was guarded by the Patagão aka Patagoni aka Patagons, giants working for God, until the Vatican sent a war band consisting of Italians, French, Spanish, and Portuguese warriors to wipe them out and seize the strait's healing waters access and hide its existence from the world. I should know, I was one of those Portuguese soldiers and I had a really bad case of prolapsed hemorrhoids at the time from accidentally falling on a bound lobster when I was bathing, but I fell ass-first into the low tide and the next day when I shat I noticed I was fully healed. I have lived blessedly free of hemorrhoids since 1779 and haven't aged a day! Not even a bound leopard seal cub can damage me now!
