It's not Glasgow for a start, the whale was built in Forres, Moray which is 200 miles north of Glasgow. The buildings behind the whale were occupied by Reid Engineering which went bust. I was involved in escorting the whale as it was an abnormal load. This video must be at least 10 or 12 years old now. The last I heard the whale was rusting away somewhere for want of more money to finish the project.
Did anyone hear what happened to this guy? I heard a real whale came up to investigate and got so angry it wasn't a real whale that it dragged him to the bottom of the ocean in its mouth.
Scoffing is easy, but he was the first to row across the Atlantic solo and sailed it in a 9'9" then a 7'9" boat, regained the rowing record at 44, from the French. Crossed in a 'bottle'. He occupied Rockall to cement Britain's claim to the island and a big area of the European continental shelf. So he may seem a bit daft, but he's no fool.
Rock all pretenders to rockall's what I'm sayin' this guy is a water-proof pinata of a national treasure long live Britannia Britannia Rules the Waves!
Give the guy a break. He is obviously very intelligent. I know I personally couldn't build a boat. Much less one that resembled a bottle or a whale. This is really cool. My hat goes off to him.
well if he wanna make it like a whale then well he gotta make it can hold oxygen too cuz whale can dive and hold it breath
