What do you call a man with no arms and no legs in the water?

He may have one leg and one arm, but he's got a massive set of kahunas!! :)

I wish him the best of luck!

It is a little curious losing opposing limbs.

I admire a guy who has the guts to try this with one arm and one leg. Most of us couldn't even swim as far as Mario's failed attempt.

My guess is Mr. Filipi doesn't whine about his disability or prey on others' sympathy. Liberal US Democrats wouldn't like this guy.

Okay, this guy seems pretty studly, but I'm still waiting for the first paraplegic dwarf to swim the Channel.

He may be missing a leg and an arm, but his BALLS are in good working order.

His name wouldn't happen to be Bob, would it?

Is this the guy that killed Sam Sheppard's wife?

In all those years a lot could have changed. He could have lost a leg.

The very first thing that came to my mind was that he would go in circles. Imagine my surprise (not!) to find out I'm not the only sick bastard on here.

"Something like this is about mental strength - whether you've got the determination to push that extra bit harder. It's got nothing to do with whether you're disabled or not."

That's so stupid. Christopher Reeves would still be riding horses if that were true.

Hey folks, this guy should have begun his quest by now. Anyone heard an update?
