Aussie swimmer survives freezing triple crossing of the English Channel | 60 Minutes Australia

From in November …

It was the swim of three lifetimes. Last week, Melbourne girl Chloe McCardel waded into the chill waters of Southern England, determined to become just the fourth person to make a triple crossing of the English Channel. How she found the courage to dive into that rough and unpredictable ocean just amazes us. But every year, hundreds try it, all determined to conquer swimming’s Mt Everest. Maybe if they saw what happened to Chloe, they’d think twice before taking the plunge.
