Thames in a paper boat. This record stood unbroken for 289 years. In 2003 Tim FitzHigham, a comic writer and performer, found the story of John Taylor's record in an old history book. When he was asked to help raise some money by doing something unusual to attract the public attention, he said -- without thinking - "I'd try and break the record.
So he made a paper boat and rowed the 160-mile length of the River Thames, thus breaking the old record. The success encouraged him, and two years later Tim had another adventure. This time he decided to cross the English Channel in a bath. Unfortunately, he was caught in a storm and seriously injured.
Anyhow, in 2005 Tim tried to cross the Channel again and had better
luck: his "boat" Lilibet II (named after Queen Elizabeth II) safely arrived in France. The brave man set two records at once -- he was the first person to cross the English Channel in a bath and also his journey was the longest successful row of the Channel. The crossing took Tim nine hours and six minutes. He remembers that the last five miles into France were the worst because of the strong wind and the waves. Besides, he was very tired. In spite of that Tim didn't stop rowing and was greeted with a round of applause by French people who had gathered on the beach to meet him.
1. John Taylor's record was kept in a certain publication.
2. Tim FitzHigham's record was unusual because he set it to help somebody
with money.
3. Tim stopped crossing the English Channel because of his health.
4. Crossing the English Channel in a bath he broke two records.
5. It was hard to complete his crossing because of his health problems.
