4. (Русский перевод) Хотели бы вы пересечь¹ Ла-Манш в ванне? Это не шутка — именно так комик Тим ФитцХайэм проплыл на веслах² (1) из Англии (2) во Францию. Тим завершил путешествие (3) за девять часов и шесть минут. Он первый человек, который переплыл Ла-Манш (4) в ванне. Это не (5) первый раз, когда Тим пытался пересечь Ла-Манш. Он пытался сделать это за год до этого, но его приключение было испорчено (6) из-за плохой погоды. Тим стартовал из Фолкстона, в Кенте (7) в 4 утра. Почти (8) семь часов спустя казалось, что Тим не справится, так как ветер изменился, замедляя его. Он достиг мыса Гри-Не, в 35 км от Великобритании, ровно (9) в 13:00, крича: "Мы сделали это. Я не верю (10) этому. Я в шоке — это было весело." Вскоре (11) после этого он описал это событие как худшие несколько часов своей жизни.
