Reza Baluchi, a man who is considered a “ultra marathoner” tried running from Florida to the Bermuda, but unfortunately had to be rescued on Saturday by the Coast Guards.
Baluchi was running in a hamster like ball that powered by man called a “hydro pod bubble”. The Coast Guard said Baluchi had protein bars, bottled water, a GPS and a satellite phone and somewhere while on the Gulf he called in for help. The Coast Guard’s public affairs specialist Mark Barney said, “Part of his effort was to make world peace but he got caught up in the Gulf Stream,”  “The chances of muscling out of the Gulf Stream were pretty low.”
Check out a video posted on Baluchi’s Facebook page that described his plans to travel across the Caribbean, .
