    FEAR, like PAIN is an integral element of the human composition, in fact it exist to varying degrees, as part of a survival mechanism in all living beings. They are unavoidable CONSTANTS in life, and like all of life’s yin/yang elements, the key is in finding a balance-understanding in them.

    However, I’m disappointed that the documentary didn’t mention absolutely anything about the day to day aspect of the crossing. Food, water, breaks, sleeping, hygiene, etc. Would be really interesting to learn that as well.
    I watched another documentary about 4 women rowing across the ocean, and it was much more interesting.

    First, I want to say that I do admire this young woman, but I do not see anything inspirational about voluntarily rowing across the Atlantic to fill in her available free time with such a good engineered prosthetic aid, wrapped and worn around her fragile body. Is the inspiration to now go, and row cross the Pacific or pedal a human-powered craft or foil pumping across the English channel? I do not fully understand what they mean by the stated statement, " Roz Savage’s journey from an ordinary career woman to an adventurer". At the moment I am thinking of my own mother who during WW2 she followed what might be misinterpreted as an "ordinary career" looking after her six children in Malta with bombs being dropped by the German and Italian air forces! Rather than rowing 30 miles a day, my mother has to walk 30 miles three times a week to go and collect food from our relatives who lived in the countryside rather than the dockyard area where we lived and which was continuously heavily attacked. There were a few thousand other mothers who collaborated with each other to live through all that!! If all those mothers had to film what they faced as this young woman, did, I am sure that all these mothers would have been called " great adventurers!" rather than ordinary careers all " flying and sailing under their own power in such heavy going conditions! "
    In modern days, relative to the life people want to live, many are born with congenital disorders and they need to do what they cannot do under their own natural power, but always wearing and wrapping themselves with various designs of engineered prosthetic aid. Pilots are all born with a flying congenital disorder as they are born with no wings and they need to wear around them a prosthetic aid called an aircraft. What is more, if their prosthetic aid fails as it did with the recent Pakistani flight that crashed in a residential area in Karachi, the pilot is not regarded as a potential murder for doing something which he could not do with the natural equipment he was born with! Other pilots who always carry their congenital disorder they are allowed to dump fuel over people's head so that hey can land a lighter aircraft!
    Steve Oberg loved going beyond his human limits as he thought that he had the right to fly over people's heads when he went over his own limits, crashed, and killed himself. Other pilots not only killed themselves but also killed innocent people resting in their own homes flowing " ordinary careers!" In such activities, whether things go right or things go wrong, I personally do not see anything of " inspirational;l value" in becoming such an adventurer through wearing an engineered prosthetic aid around you, rather than just use the natural equipment one is born with. There are no " ordinary careers" which intelligent natural women who use only their own abilities without wearing an engineered prosthetic aid to make them feel ten foot taller than they really are. I would say that to make myself clearer I should as the assistance of Maya Angelou who wrote the poem PHENOMENAL WOMAN which depicts the real inspiration of an intelligent woman and there is no need for both men and women to wear artificial engineered prosthetic aids to make up for their congenital disorders in wanting to flow career always wearing a heavy doze of engineering equipment including ejector seats and parachutes.
    There is one issue that would conclude out of this episode, is the fact that the boat was well designed, well equipped for a trip lasting over 103 days but that young woman failed to test those four oars which were wrongly designed by someone who did not know the stresses in a second class lever. So what I do not see to be so inspirational is for this young woman to have blindly trusted a person who did not know how to give her the best life security on that boat. Many people think that they do inspirational activities just because they can buy and operate a prosthetic aid to wrap around their bodies and go skydive, or fling with a wingsuit, or join the military where all personnel needs to wear a prosthetic aid ALL THE TIME for defensive or offensive reasons.
    Going through life just doing what is necessary to do to support others simply using our basic natural power, does not make ordinary careers and one is an absolute fool to think that filing in time to be an adventurer always wearing engineered prosthetic aids to be able to feel ten foot taller than one really is.
    Here are a few videos showing how people can wear useful engineered prosthetic aids to help them rather than to cause their own adrenaline to go around facing danger as they think that their career is only " an ordinary one!"

    Phenomenal Woman
    BY MAYA ANGELOU
    Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
    I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s size
    But when I start to tell them,
    They think I’m telling lies.
    I say,
    It’s in the reach of my arms,
    The span of my hips,
    The stride of my step,
    The curl of my lips.
    I’m a woman
    Phenomenally.
    Phenomenal woman,
    That’s me.
    I walk into a room
    Just as cool as you please,
    And to a man,
    The fellows stand or
    Fall down on their knees.
    Then they swarm around me,
    A hive of honey bees.
    I say,
    It’s the fire in my eyes,
    And the flash of my teeth,
    The swing in my waist,
    And the joy in my feet.
    I’m a woman
    Phenomenally.
    Phenomenal woman,
    That’s me.
    Men themselves have wondered
    What they see in me.
    They try so much
    But they can’t touch
    My inner mystery.
    When I try to show them,
    They say they still can’t see.
    I say,
    It’s in the arch of my back,
    The sun of my smile,
    The ride of my breasts,
    The grace of my style.
    I’m a woman
    Phenomenally.
    Phenomenal woman,
    That’s me.
    Now you understand
    Just why my head’s not bowed.
    I don’t shout or jump about
    Or have to talk real loud.
    When you see me passing,
    It ought to make you proud.
    I say,
    It’s in the click of my heels,
    The bend of my hair,
    the palm of my hand,
    The need for my care.
    ’Cause I’m a woman
    Phenomenally.
    Phenomenal woman,
    That’s me.

    • @carmelpule6954

      Perhaps one should proceed to mention what an " educated city life" is doing to the mentality of modern people, where, as in this case, the following of a career in London, is not so natural nor " ordinary", as those careers our forefathers followed in more rural natural areas, which were full of natural oriented people following ordinary careers and group activities....... as insinuated in the introduction of this video.
      It seems that following higher education and a city career tacitly affects the human body and mind as it did those workers who left the farms and the fishing grounds and went to work for Henry Ford in Detroit at about 1910, which was the initial stages when humans began to feel that Education and Artificial city careers were taking them away from nature and was resulting in men feeling robbed of their natural self abilities in doing and thinking for their own. Women started feeling this mental effect at about 1935 and rights and careers in cities were to be followed, little did they know that slowly, the natural personality of individuals was being robbed at a fast rate, and many thought that fighting for rights and equal opportunities of work, will equate the equality of outcome between men and women!!
      All that happened resulted in that the human mind was highly disturbed and the city life personality was beginning to home in as not being the ideal thing to follow. Natural families in cities normally suffer, and even begin to slowly disappear as in all cities around the world, with a new style of social unions formed between people. Miscarriages, aborts, and stillborns in " educated career people" rise drastically. The most obvious is that even sexual relations begin to take form in an artificial manner with a variety of prosthetic aids being used to curtail the reproduction function but retain the excitement in sex! It does seem that those who had a natural education living close to nature, their sexual activity was just " ordinary and productive as nature meant it" but a city career induces too much artificiality in our lives. City life becomes a life where Educated people start seeking intimacy with some engineered prosthetic aid which can give them that belonging feeling which city careers usually lose in the long run. It is interesting how an engineered prosthetic aid becomes a substitute partner for lonely city career people, including a car, to take them out of their city surroundings and back to nature in such an artificial manner.
      This intimate relationship with a bought, leased or borrowed, or sponsored, engineered prosthetic aid can take many forms including, cars, and washing machines and spin dryers and microwave cookers and boats and aircraft and computers, and watching dancing or other activities on videotape, rather than actually going dancing to a dance hall to meet real people face to face and get that natural belonging feeling for both adults and children. The use of an engineered prosthetic aid to help people be alone yet intimate in a somewhat adulterated fashion, as in sexual excitation, to cause the adrenaline to shift around in veins as the old natural reproductive sex used to do, now it is all a well thought out and organized a lonely affair with a bought or leased or borrowed, engineered prosthetic aid which brings you close to death.
      Flying through the air above people's head, alone in the cockpit of a Pitts Special biplane or the Red Baron in a triplane or AR Brown in his armed aircraft, or others in an air display or at the Reno races or indeed crossing the Oceans in a small lonely boat and claiming to be "adventurers" or indeed flying in a human-powered aircraft, one must dig deep to weigh up what it is that the " user or adventurer contributes to the activity in question!" All the activities mentioned do not bear much difference from the sexual activities in a city where the use of prosthetic aids in all forms is applied to add to the excitement of a lonely performer!
      I do not think that there is anything inspirational or of value, if one handles a pair of oars for 3.600,000 repeated times, in life and death situation, or as in the case of flying a Pitt's special and go over the limits of one's ability, as in the case of Steve Oberg, Arthur Bud Holland and all those who died in air displays even involving innocent people on the ground! It is interesting how the excitement of natural sex, being intimate with a human partner, and without the use of prosthetic aids are now declining to lonely people being alone, wrapped, or wearing some engineered prosthetic aid which increases their rate of flow of adrenaline in their veins flowing at such a higher rate than it even comes close making death a pleasurable activity, even killing the occupant where their relatives will claim that" The person died doing what he loved to do most!"
      Engineered prosthetic aids are becoming so interesting that people are beginning to think that engineered prosthetic aids which they buy and use have become part of their own body limbs and one tends to laugh a little when even INdustries are claiming that an item is "HAND MADE" when the people involved are simply transferring the state of a machined formed part from one machine to the next. People now claim that learning how to shift a gear lever and apply the throttle to power a high-performance car or use a 350 Horse Power engine in a Pitts Special to go beyond the Human limits is a measure of a person's ability rather than pitting one's wits in making a suitable prosthetic aid for a more useful purpose.
      We are now at a stage with the application of prosthetic aid worn and attached to our bodies, that a pilot will claim exceptional flying abilities when all he does is to press the starter button to start the engines.
      In this case of rowing across the Atlantic humanly pulling at those engineered prosthetic oars repeatedly for about 3,600,000, reading the GPS to navigate with, having an appliance freshwater, from seawater and storing boat preserved food was not so inspirational as it was the rowing and the self-imposed pains that she enjoyed replacing what she could have done in an " ordinary career" which could also have been very inspirational as it is to many other family people. Note that one American woman whose morale went down too much used her engineered distress transmitter to call for help which she received after she said on her video that she was preparing for her own death!
      If the so-called "inspirational people" who wrap around them bought, leased, borrowed, or sponsored complex engineered prosthetic aids to try to use basic tools and form some basic materials to form a product rather than seek a near-death experience to reach an excitation, titillation level, then that would be more inspirational to many children rather than telling children to learn how to buy an engineered prosthetic aid and try and go an kill yourself with using it after pressing the start button!
      People who use prosthetic aids in a useful and unuseful manner.

      @@listless22 The philosophy of what I wrote was absolutely not inspired by this video but by the fact that there were many other women who brought up families in difficult conditions, aiding other people in a charitable manner, and those who suffered in prisoners of wars and other dire states where they did not have any " engineered prosthetic aids attached to their bodies" to do the repetitive, relatively simple operation she did, but only had their normal human power and sole determination. After all, this woman volunteered to do it with the aid of sponsors and other engineering support. There are many people who punish themselves just as much when they train for the Olympic games, Do think deeply about it!

      What you are perhaps missing is that extreme athletic sports like this are the initiation of technologies which end up helping many others. Carbon fiber for example, mentioned several times in this documentary, was invented and improved and propelled specifically for extreme athletic events such as this one. During the initial designs, these new inventions are tremendously expensive, and the cost is beared by the investors in the events, via sponsorships and private funding. Eventually these technologies make their way into the mainstream in many ways, again for example with carbon fiber, being repurposed for medical uses and in many other ways. The navigation equipment, which this documentary mentions as failing, was also made up of newest-generation technology which was pushed by her demands for better equipment, and later on that same technology, when it stabilizes in usage and price, trickles down to the mainstream into the life of an average person. You lampoon pilots for their technology yet that same technology was developed for extreme events very similar to this one, and then repurposed into beneficial avenues such as life-flight emergency rescue, etc.
      All of these extreme events, or "never done before" events, which could be cited, like you have done, as "WHY are they doing this useless thing; it is so wasteful and purposeless?" are pushing at many thousands of boundaries, just as her own oars push against the water, and little by little many advancements are made, propelling all of humanity forward.
      Medical science itself is significantly improved by the efforts of professional athletes and extreme athletes. The results or failures of her constitution end up benefiting all of humanity, in terms of better treatments for injuries, or various types of medical data with far-reaching implications, many of which are not even guessed at from the start. Her successes (or failures) in various aspects of her efforts may trickle down to become new physical therapy treatments, or new medications, or new dietary studies for better health, etc etc.
      Pundits like yourself who attempt to diminish those who push at the extremes of humanity are not helping humanity, you are harming humanity. Yes, it is entirely possible for a "well-off woman in a consulting job and no other life worries other than sensing a lack of purpose perhaps by misplaced anxieties from childhood" to train, and train, and train, and end up shifting human science and human psychology in a very positive way. That is the lesson to take away from this documentary. Every single human, regardless of position in class or position in geography, can move all of humanity forward by making focused choices to press against the boundaries of what has been done before. Guaranteed that no trip across such raw natural environments will be done in the same way twice, or face identical challenges to what has been before; every trip is a new trip, facing unique challenges and having to overcome those challenges, creating various new lessons for humanity to learn from.

    Filipinos did this 2500 years ago we sailed on our double canoe the LAPITA austronesian people were from Philippines. We sailed to micronesia to melanesia and Polynesia and to Indonesia
