Man Hoping To Swim Across The Pacific

Ben Lecomte is planning to spend the next six months swimming 5,500 miles across the Pacific Ocean. The 50 year-old will jump into the water in Chosi, Japan on Sunday before swimming through a giant trash heap, a great white shark migration, tons of jellyfish and storms. Ben hopes to paddle and kick to San Francisco by November. In 1998, he crossed the Atlantic.
