Extreme adventurer Ross Edgley is in hospital after enduring temperatures as low as 5C in a record breaking swim in Scotland. The 36-year-old began the challenge of breaking the record for the longest ever open water swim in Loch Ness on Wednesday.
He swam continuously without touching land or a boat for 52 hours and 39 minutes covering approximately 79km in the loch for a period of more than two days and nights.
On Saturday morning the ultra-marathon swimmer shared a photo on social media in hospital. He said: "Thank you SO much for all the kind messages of support. As you can probably tell the swim didn’t entirely go to plan.
