11.Imagine someone has crossed the seas joining five continents by swimming.It is a major success for anyone.But it is an even greater success for Philippe Croizon,who has no arms,and no legs!His achievements show that we can all achieve great things-no matter who we are.Philippe Croizon was 26years old when he had an accident.The doctors had to remove both of his arms and legs."When they cut off my last leg I wanted to die.I suffered great depression and my spirit was as low as you can get.But you have to choose-and I chose to live!"said Croizon.
While he was recovering in hospital,Croizon saw a television programme about a woman who had been swimming across the English Channel.After watching the programme Croizon decided to do it.He began to exercise every day to make him strong and it took him two years to prepare.
