Philippe Croizon, a 42-year old French resident made history on September 19th, when he became the first quadruple amputee, to swim across the 21-mile long English Channel. What's even more impressive, is that he completed the swim in thirteen and a half hours - almost a full ten hours faster than had been expected.
