Swimming from the UK to Norway?????

im pretty bored and i wanna move to norway so i can live in a tent in the wild, going to town to steal a loaf of bread and a bottle of water every 4 days

is this possible?? is the swimming distance to far? im pretty sure people have swam the english channel to france but i dunno if anyone has gone so far as to swim to norway

im not TOO bothered about dying desu, im more worried a ship will find me and make me go back to the UK

It's possible. Don't forget to stream it.

Yeah, it's definitely possible.

People have swum from Scotland to Iceland before. So you should be able to make Norway no problem, just do backstroke to rest.

You would die within one hour so give it a shot

(very funny joke about OP that gets many replies)

Why don't you go ahead and try it, dumb fuck?

>britbong user died like an idiot while swimming from England to Norway

Britannia rules the waves pham, follow your dream

It should be possible within 3-4 hours of constant swimming if you're in good shape, just wear some shark-away spray and you're good.

Good luck!

Stop right there abdul salam dingalingdong

>Typical Remainiac Europhile

...

Its too far.

Now if you get a canoe you will be set. Or find a boat at the local marina that isnt locked up well and take it.

>america
>not sure if jose, jamal, moishe, pajeet, abdul, chang

You would last about 10 mins, that's the north sea fella.
Steal a boat, its really not that difficult

sure, if you're immune to freezing water

Should be easy to swim that far. It's only half the distance of your mom's cunt and you made it out of there okay.

Draw on a smaller map, the distance will be shorter

it's the fucking north sea

lmao

thread is a joke

I'd watch it.

With an average speed of 2 miles per hour you will have to swim for 140 hours

yeah i'd watch it too desu

steal a paddleboat and do it in that

Get ready to die too.

The average swimming speed is 4 miles per hour. The distance you're talking about is 283 miles. You'd have to swim at 4 miles per hour for 70 hours to make it. You'll most likely die user. The english channel isn't comparable (you're slightly retarded for even thinking this) as it's only 21 miles.

>You would last about 10 mins, that's the north sea fella.

What would I die of?

>It should be possible within 3-4 hours of constant swimming if you're in good shape

I'm not. But i'm ok with taking 30 days. I'd take a lot of supplies, and not strain myself too much.

>sure, if you're immune to freezing water

what if i buy a thermal swim suit and wrap myself in insulating foil?

Try a boat desu desu desu

It might be possible but only in summer. Its fucking novemember and you will die of hypothermia. That's not a might.
Nobody will care about a small boat going across the north sea. Decent chance nobody will even know or see your boat depending on where you depart/land.

All these people saying that you can't do it and that you will die? Where's your spirit! Go for it!

The North Sea ought the be like bath water right now thanks to Global Warming.

What could go wrong?

>What would I die of?
Sharks.

No shit.

Where were you when OP won the Darwin award?

>What would I die of?
Obesity.

>thermal swim suit
Layers are your friend. Just put on like 5 wool sweaters and a bunch of socks and pants.

That's the North Sea lel

You will freeze to death, die of exhaustion, get caught by trawlers or get chopped up by a tanker.

Quite literally the Stupidest person to ever create a thread on Sup Forums

...

North Sea is really shallow so at worst you can rest standing on your legs for some time

You'd freeze to death very quickly you absolute cock sleeve. Steal a boat.

I could go on a sunday, and i could coat myself in shark blood so the sharks dont smell me?

again im not too bothered of dying, i just dont wanna get found by humans who want to take me home

You want make it 10 meters

just get some wood and make a boat

you can do it, i did similiar thing, i swam from poland to norway, dont listen to those people saying you cant, they probably didnt swim a mile in their lives.
just get a good swimming suit and take supplies in a waterproof backpack

That's 300 miles. The world record is 140 miles.
Take a ferry

2british4me

Brian Ferry?

you'll die 100%

stream it on twitch

Don't listen to this man.

Don 100% COTTON clothing, like migrants do, if you want to make it. That's how they survive the crossing

youtube.com/watch?v=cs7CW6xDbL8
mimic this video and you'll manage it easily

AHAHAHAHA.

Honestly you can just get a scuba diving set and just walk from the UK to Norway under water. You can sit down in some rock if your feet get tired and you can just blow into the oxygen tank to fill it up again and keep going.

You can also put sandwiches on the oxygen tank and there's plenty of water on your way so honestly why are you still posting here senpai

not cool
Sup Forums is a board of peace.

Just measured the distance on Google Earth OP...

474km to swim, that's uh... Good luck with that.

If you swim 400m in 8min that's quite OKish, so 8min for 400m, and you wanna swim 474,000m... welll

400 m in 8 min = 25m / min

474,000 m / 25 m/min = 18960min = 316 hours = a bit more than 13 days.

> a bit more than 13 days

That is if you swim 24 hours a day

So if you can swim and drag a raft, and sleep, you're looking at probably about a month, if you drag the raft and in it you have supplies.

Godspeed, if you actually do this you'll be a world famous man, hahahhaha.

Don't bother swimming.

>Get together all your wealth
>Look on HUKD for cheap European flights. (Recently there was Ryanair flights to Denmark for a £1)
>get bicycle
>disappear into forest
>¿¿¿¿¿
>PROPHET

DON'T swim, get a boat so you have a chance of surviving

Tanks and trawlers are pretty far between. The sea is big.

OK now I'm sure its a troll thread. On the off chance you're just retarded, get a boat. Steal one if you want. Or build one, lumber is cheap (needs to be treated, you can do it yourself cheaply).

Boats go around the North sea all the time. Nobody will seize you and take you back even if yours is spotted. If you are really nervous, fly a union jack from your ship. Switch to a Norwegian flag halfway. No questions asked when you enter their waters. Do it miles from a dock or any people if you want, Norway has no shortage of coastline.

>not TOO bothered about dying desu

I'm a pretty experienced swimmer and still occasionally have panic attacks when I'm out as little as 100m in calm summer weather.

But if you're confident, go ahead and attempt 15 back-to-back English Channel swims without food or water in freezing water. Alternatively, seek treatment for you autism

Haha, enjoy freezing to death you stupid cunt.
Don't forget to stream it

Like i said here The guy telling you you can do it in 3-4 hours is a fucking idiot. That's implying you can swim at 70 miles per hour for 4 hours. You're not even in good shape. You wouldn't be able to do it in double this time if you trained for a fucking year.

kek

wait until his corpse has bloated
take a sharp knife to carve off meat

Yeah, show those waves that we're still their rulers. Go on lad, swim through that ocean.

>absolute cock sleeve
This is why i love you guys

Do it step by step: Orkney, Shetland, Norway.
That said I would be surprised if you managed to reach Orkney , even with a survival suit.

People swim the canal in minutes, you should easily get to Norway within a few hours.
Put on a thermal swimsuit and wear some clothes on top of it, that'll keep you warm the entire time.

...

You would have to sleep, how?

If you don't give a fuck and have no money, hiding yourself on a boat like a Nigerian is probably easier than what you're thinking of. Your supplies would be far more expensive than a one way ticket anyway.

>take supplies in a waterproof backpack

This, something like a sleeping-bag so you can stop halfway and have a sleep during your 290-mile swim

>1000 + 1016
>Still sleeping

It's a piece of cake. About 5 people swim it everyday. You'll be fine

The cold will get you long before exhaustion would. Honestly it isnt difficult to nick a boat and head east.

You would die. Please try.

be sure to keep regular check on your health bar

keep watching your HUD

build a fucking boat you retard. They're not that hard to build, you can build one for next to nothing, and you wont fucking die.

>Two Estonians became the first people in recorded history to successfully swim across the Gulf of Finland. They started their effort in Finland and ended it in Estonia, taking nearly a full day to complete the swim.
Six Estonians with professional swimming experience, five men and one woman, made the attempt to cross the stretch of water between Estonia and Finland, but only two of them made it to the other side. Priit Vehm and Bruno Nopponen were successful in swimming the 55kms, Nopponen finished first with a time of 19 hours and 13 minutes, while Vehm took around 3 hours longer.

Looking like ~300-320 miles minimum distance. North Sea in November.

Easy as sucking down haggis. Do it.

>Not knowing where the UK stops and Scotland begins

And nothing of value will be lost.

Seriously girls. What would be stopping an supreme gentleman from taking a cheap flight to a European city and disappearing off the radar?
What are the likelihoods of getting sum gibsmedems I when food or money runs low?

I'm pretty sure Beowulf did it. Try it!

>You would have to sleep, how?

I'd just lie on my back and sleep on the waves. Maybe swim for 20 hours, sleep for 4? Maybe i should just swim to france and then walk to norway.

fpbp

>burger education

this fucking guy, lmao

...

Why swim? As e EU citizen you can legally come here, no problem

this, wtf OP. Just go to Norway and dissappear.

OH MY GOD YOU FUCKING DIDN'T

Here's what you have to Do desu
>sell your liver
>Buy the cheapest boat(with an engine) on ebay from the money
>Get yourself a tent, a fishing rod and a little money
>Set of to glory from the scottish shore
>Throw your passport in the water
Arrive in norway
>profit

>untied

Hypocrite.

I would steal a boat.
FInd the harbor you will sail from.
Buy food, gasoline, a lot of water.
Find a small boat and watch it for a couple of days.
When you are sure it's the boat you can easily steal do it at night. Also plan ahead and be sure the next 24 hours is calm seas.
If you steal a boat that can travel with a speed of 20 km/h you can get to Norway in 24 hours.

Nice

Not OP, but if I wanted to camp in the wilderness where should I go?

poes

Swim to Calais, claim asylum, get free ticket to Oslo.

You forgot "Adopt a Middle-eastern accent and blacken yourself with dubbin"

Ive done it before, granted i was drunk which kept me warm and gave me never ending stamina.

Neck a few snaps and beers and jump in. The cold water will make you go faster because its cold.

United. Typo. I have heard lefties calling it the untied kingdom since the brexit vote "its gonna fall apart any day now".

Something about sea boats with little sheltered cabins that is so /comfy/

If you get inside a cresting wave it's like a water tent that will protect you from the elements. Chances are they will land in Norway so you won't even have to swim just read a book and relax.

That could work I think.
Go for a trial run and stream it.
