Video proof: Evolta did swim the official Ironman route

Exciting stuff in American/Japanese, still think it would have gotten into problems if there was a decent current against it. Was that a whale jumping at the turn buoy? The robots completed the full Ironman challenge 2011 in only 166 hours 57 minutes, with the 2.4-miles (3.86 km) swim taking a little over 5 hours.
