The ratification of this record is now a fact. TheAsociacion de Cruce a Nado del Estrecho de Gibraltar has been confirmed, and David Mea has crossed the Strait 3 times, going a distance of 75 km in 7 hours and 20 minutes in making the full trip, but the entire time invested is over 12 hours in the 3 stretches.
Meca had tried without success with the same prowess last January, but an inopportune dizziness prevented him from making the record, though he finally did it this past Friday.
