Karl Bushby on how he swam English Channel to reach UK
Adventurer Karl Bushby says he has completed a multi-day swim of the English Channel, stepping foot on UK soil after a 28-year journey.
Bushby, 57, left Chile, South America, on 1 November 1998, following two self-imposed rules - not to use transport to advance and not to return home until the journey is complete.
On Tuesday, he announced that he had swum from France to the UK - the final, major hurdle of his journey back to his childhood home in Hull.
