Man Crosses Atlantic in Metal Tube

71 year old man crosses Atlantic Ocean in orange capsule

From the article:

In December last year, Jean-Jacques Savin, 71, floated away from the Canary Islands off the coast of Africa in an orange capsule he’d built. Last week, he landed at the Dutch Caribbean island of St. Eustatius. The capsule has no motor and was steered by the ocean current. Inside the 10 feet by 7 feet capsule is a bed and kitchen for Savin to cook fish he caught during the nearly 3,000 mile journey.
