River walker smashes fund target

Graham Boanas walked underwater across the River Humber
A record-breaking river walker from Hull has reached his fund-raising target of £100,000.
Graham Boanas, who is 6ft 9in tall, became the first man to walk across the River Mersey in August.

Just days later, Mr Boanas, 43, crossed the River Humber, spending 90% of his trip fully submerged in the water. It was his second walk across the river.

The father of two has now raised £119,000 for charity DebRA, which helps those with a skin blistering condition.



this guy is a nutter! he walked across the humber! i grew up near that and the thought gives me the shivers, it looks like flowing mud! but he is raising loads of cash, he is now planning to walk across 3 rivers in one day! this guy is anutter but a guy who believes in what he is doing!

Good luck to him in all his future exploits

Agree, a brave guy, as that particular stretch of the River Humber is dangerous .. I watched him do his first walk across, as I am only about 10 mins, by car, from the Humber Bridge

Wow, this is very impressive, and he is doing it for a good cause. I hope he stays safe in his future endeavors.
