    Iโ€™m swimming 28.5 miles around Manhattan. Crossing all 20 bridges so New York kids donโ€™t have to miss swim lessons just because of money.

    The campaign is called 20 Bridges for 40 Futures: weโ€™re aiming to fund at least 40 full swim scholarships for NYC kids who otherwise canโ€™t afford lessons. Each scholarship is $559 and covers 8 lessons, gear, and pool access. The goal Is $25,000

    As a husband, father, small business owner, and swim coach, Iโ€™m training 6 days a week, swimming 40โ€“45 km while trying to juggle family and work. Iโ€™m not a superhero โ€” Iโ€™m just someone whose life was changed by swimming, trying to pass that chance on.

    A giant crocodile swam right in front of two models during an underwater photo shoot. Kimber Kiefer says she was with her husband Ken, a professional underwater photographer, shooting pictures with another model when the crocodile calmly swam up to them. Crocodiles are known for their long powerful jaws, sharp teeth and terrifying death rolls.
