The 50-year-old swimmer Ben Lisom plans to fly five and a half miles to swim. Sunday (May 27th) will start swimming from Japan, according to the newspaper The Washington Post.
Ben Lysome is of French descent, but his bus is in Texas, USA. He passed the Atlantic Sea from July 16, 1998 to September 25, on September 25. At this time, from the Massachusetts of the United States to Brittany in France. At that time, swimming in cancer research meant swimming. But his journey did not go to the Guinness Book of World Records. Now he wants to pass the Pacific Ocean.
Starting from Japan on Sunday, Lisom plans to reach San Francisco in November. He will not be able to see the donga in the long run of 5,700 miles. His journey will track a digital media science company 'Sikar' and Discovery Channel.
The purpose of this swimming is to collect information for research. At the time of swimming, there will be a boat with Lysom and his associates in the boat. During the eight hours of the day, the rest will be rested in the boat. As well as swimming, they will collect data and samples for more than 27 research organizations including NASA. They will collect information about plastic pollution, migraine mammals (such as whales) behavior etc.
Lisom knows that there may be various problems at this time. Healthy problems, ecological problems and aquatic creatures fear if there is so much water in the water. But Lysome's biggest fear is about jellyfish. He said, 'My thoughts are more about jellyfish. If jellyfish are difficult to swim, especially if they bundle together. '
