Adam Diver makes second attempt swim to the Isle of Man from Whitehaven

He set off at 8.00 this morning

A former army captain is making his way to the Isle of Man from Whitehaven, but not by ferry or plane.

Adam Diver is attempting the 'The Big Swim 2' - he's already 15-kilometres in after setting off from St. Bees Beach. 

He's hoping to make his 51km feat into the Guinness Book of World Records, and raise funds for mental health charities.
