Extreme Swimmer to Take on Antarctica in Budgie Smugglers | Sky News Australia

Long-distance swimmer Lynton Mortensen discusses his latest challenge as he is bound for the Antarctic.

Mr Mortensen said the water temperature is anticipated to be at zero degrees.

โ€œAnd itโ€™s just the pair of the good old budgie smugglers, cap and goggles,โ€ he told Sky News Australia.

โ€œSo thereโ€™s no wetsuit.

โ€œWeโ€™re aiming for an ice mile if we can, conditions permitting โ€“ I did one at the Arctic 2022 and the water temperature there was minus one.โ€
