When They Tell YOU It's Impossible...

It's the mid-70's... YOU're paddling down the Dusi/Umgeni rivers in record floods during the official 50-Miler.
YOU're approaching the notorious Devil's Island Rapid (a full level 5 rapid - most difficult at normal levels)... and no-one else is in the water (they're all portaging over Burma Road) because they say - 'it's IMPOSSIBLE'!
Can YOU do the 'impossible'?
What do YOU do?



YOU give it a go... YOU try... YOU do it... YOU end up in a rare 'raging river' photo that captures the imagination of other canoeists for years.

Did they really do it?

Yes.

YOU Can... Do It!

  1. What is impossible? How would you know if you have not tried? Everyone (except this guy) believed the 4 minute mile was a feat humanly IMPOSSIBLE. Now we all know the story of Roger Bannister ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Bannister.

    So, what is your "impossible barrier"? Challenge it, test its validity. Decide how badly you want it. Then BREAK it :-)
