7 year old Alcatraz adventure

This boy just became the youngest person to make the swim between Alcatraz and San Francisco

Alcatraz island and San Francisco.
Braxton Bilbrey took 47 minutes to swim the estimated 1.4 miles (2.25km) from the notorious island prison, which once housed criminals including Al Capone.

This is one tough kid. He says he could do it again and says next time he will swim out from San Fransisco and around around Alcatraz and back to San Fransisco.
