μαθήματα ζωής
 

ιστορίες σάν τού Philippe Croizon είναι αυτό τό κάτι πού σέ κάνει κάθε μέρα νά γυρνάς τό κεφάλι σου πρός τόν Παντοδύναμο καί νά λές ένα τεράστιο ευχαριστώ γιά όλα αυτά πού σού έχουν δοθεί. άς πάρουμε όλοι μαθήματα ζωης απ` αυτούς τούς ανθρωπους.

<<In 1994, at the age of 26, Philippe Croizon was the victim of a tragic accident. As he was changing a TV antenna up on his roof, he got shocked with a 20,000 volt electrical charge. Several months of hospitalization and over a hundred hours of operations later, he found himself stuck in a wheelchair with both his arms and legs amputated.
Philippe decided to overcome his terrible handicap and began racking up the challenges: he learned to walk again with artificial limbs, took up scuba-diving and parachuting. Then on September 18, 2010, at the age of 42, he accomplished something unheard of: he swam across the English Channel. The news spread instantly around the world and at 42, he began a new life as a public figure: a shining example of bravery and self-will. Philippe happily accepted his fame. He didn't only swim the Channel for himself, but also for all those he calls his comrades in misfortune.
But Philippe Croizon is a man who likes challenges. No question of stopping halfway. Just a few months after swimming across the English Channel, he decided, along with his sidekick and friend Arnaud Chassery, to take on a new adventure: connecting 5 continents with 4 swims>>
