Unfair...I don't know who Fanny Crippen is.

And Windows must now increase my virtual memory.

I hopes so.

He was a professional open water swimmer who died in Dubai last week during an event. The water temperature was reported between 83-87 degrees and he died right before the finish line.

It's upset a number of people but he died doing what he loved. Can't ask for much more than that. It's like people think life is an entitlement.

Yeah that was a shame about the swimmer... had read about that the other day although I'd never heard his name before.

The pictures of him though? He was in fantastic shape and so experienced... wonder what the hell happened.

This is a very,very deep statement,although there are manny,many people who don't seem to realize as much.






This is why only the very finest of insane minds call themselves NerdyTrailers.

You are truly and hopelessly insane.

Thank you.

Any time.

The conditions were brutal for open water that day. 100 degree temps 85 degree water.

FINA should be ashamed of themselves for not canceling the event.

I read upper 80's on the water temp. It doesn't take much to pass out when exerting in those temps. Really sad.

Yeah I've read anywhere from 83-87. Ridiculous.
