这是我第十五次站在这片古巴海滩上，望着远处的地平线，我再次相信，我会成功跨越

这片浩瀚、危险的海中荒漠。不仅仅是我都尝试了四次失败，世界上其他伟大的游泳健将，

自从1950年以来就开始尝试了，而至今还没有人可以做到。我和我的团队尝试了四次，团队

由30人组成，尼是我最好的朋友，也是我的首席训练师，她总能在我要放弃的时候唤醒我

底最后的力量，很长时间来一直如此。

我们有世界上最好的鲨鱼专家——大型捕食杀手就在水底游荡，这片水域里的箱型水母，

拥有海洋里最致命的毒液，在这片海洋，这片水域里。之前一次的尝试就差点毙命于此。这

里的水域条件，除了海面超过100英里的直线距离，水流、涡流和墨西哥湾暖流，所有的条

件都是这个地球上最不可预知的。
