Vineyard refuge, mass. – British-South African Durable Athlete closes on target of his line 62 miles (100 kilometers) Multi-day swimming Around Marth’s vineyard on Monday, aimed at becoming the first person who is the first to swim all around the island.

Lewis Pugh began swimming for more hours a day in water for 47 degrees (8 degrees Celsius) to raise awareness of sharks as a movie “Jaws” near 50. birthdays. He wants to change public perceptions and encourage the protection for animals exposed to risks – for which he said that the film was abused as “villains, as a cold-blooded killer.”

“It was a movie about sharks that attack people and 50 years, we attacked sharks,” he said before he entered the ocean near the edgartown lighthouse. “It’s completely unsustainable. It’s madness. We have to respect them.”

Pugh (55) said this would be among his hardest floating endurance, which he says a lot for someone who knocked out the proximity and volcanoes, and among hyponyo, crocodiles and polar bears. Pugh was the first athlete who was swimming over the North Pole and completed swimming on a distance in each of the world’s oceans.

But Pugh, which often swims to raise awareness of ecological causes – the protector of the ocean – said that not every drastic measures in the world would be killed on a global scale – almost 100 million each year, according to the American Science Improvement Association.

“Jaws”, which was recorded in Edgartown, renamed the Amity Iceland for the film, created Hollywood Blockbuster culture when he was released in the summer of 1975, setting up the new records for the office for the office. The film would shape the view of the ocean for decades to come.

And the director of Steven Spielberg and author Peter Benchley expressed that the viewers of the film became so much afraid of sharks, and both later contributed to the conservation of effort because their population fell, to a great extent for commercial fishing.
