00:01:17.620 Hello, everybody.

00:01:25.220 Welcome back to the Gains for Girls podcast.

00:01:27.700 This past weekend, I broke liberals' minds,

00:01:31.600 which number one is not very hard to do,

00:01:33.260 and number two, it seems to be a hobby of mine at this point.

00:01:35.760 But this time, it was for swimming and successfully escaping Alcatraz

00:01:40.420 at 31 weeks pregnant, by the way,

00:01:43.520 which my belly just continues to expand really exponentially at this point,

00:01:49.280 of course, as we're rounding out pregnancy.

00:01:51.500 We are going to get into all of that and more,

00:01:53.880 but before we do, I want to tell you to,

00:01:55.380 number one, be sure to like, subscribe,

00:01:57.760 follow us at youtube.com slash Outkick.

00:02:07.000 Again, youtube.com slash Outkick.

00:02:09.000 And number two, I want to tell you about today's sponsor for this episode.

00:02:12.540 It is Cozy Earth.

00:02:14.660 It's the end of July at this point.

00:02:16.620 I live in Tennessee.

00:02:17.460 I know you guys know that.

00:02:18.300 It is hot.

00:02:18.940 It is humid.

00:02:19.900 It does not matter what temperature you have your thermostat at.

00:02:22.660 You are going to be sweating in the middle of the night.

00:02:25.280 At least I was previously,

00:02:27.040 before I had Cozy Earth sheets on my bed.

00:02:30.720 I have the bamboo viscose sheets.

00:02:33.020 They are incredible.

00:02:35.040 I thought it was kind of like, again,

00:02:36.580 an inevitable thing that you sweat in summer,

00:02:38.380 not with these sheets.

00:02:39.700 And Cozy Earth was so kind to send me sheets made for a crib mattress for the sweet little

00:02:48.240 baby who is to come in just a few weeks at this point.

00:02:51.140 So those are so soft as well.

00:02:53.180 So if you're a mom, an expecting mother, you can get crib sheets.

00:02:57.460 Or if you're anyone who sleeps in a bed, which of course is everyone,

00:03:00.940 go to CozyEarth.com.

00:03:02.940 You can use my code GAINS for 40% off.

00:03:04.860 Again, these are best-selling, temperature-regulating sheets.

00:03:08.080 And more, they have loungewear.

00:03:09.220 They have pajamas.

00:03:10.460 You can sleep cooler.

00:03:11.740 You can lounge lighter.

00:03:12.960 You can stay cozy with CozyEarth.com.

00:03:16.100 Okay, let's get into this week's episode.

00:03:20.740 Of course, Alcatraz has really made the news over the past week or so.

00:03:25.240 Actually, really longer than that, if we're looking at alligator Alcatraz.

00:03:28.300 But we're talking about Alcatraz, the prison in the middle of the San Francisco Bay.

00:03:32.880 Donald Trump, he put this out on True Social.

00:03:36.260 He says, in all caps, again, True Trump fashion,

00:03:39.440 rebuild and open Alcatraz.

00:03:41.600 For too long, America has been plagued by vicious, violent, and repeat criminal offenders, 0.53

00:03:46.180 the dregs of society who will never contribute anything other than misery and suffering.

00:03:50.820 When we were a more serious nation in times past,

00:03:53.100 we did not hesitate to lock up the most dangerous criminals

00:03:55.320 and keep them far away from anyone they could harm.

00:03:57.760 That's the way it's supposed to be.

00:03:59.280 Amen.

00:03:59.520 No longer will we tolerate these serial offenders who spread filth,

00:04:03.040 bloodshed, and mayhem on our streets.

00:04:04.660 That is why today, I am directing the Bureau of Prisons,

00:04:07.460 together with the Department of Justice, FBI, and Homeland Security,

00:04:10.320 to reopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt Alcatraz

00:04:14.920 to house America's most ruthless and violent offenders.

00:04:18.500 We will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and judges,

00:04:22.280 interesting, that are afraid to do their job

00:04:24.820 and allow us to remove criminals who came into our country illegally.

00:04:28.280 The reopening of Alcatraz will serve as a symbol of law, order, and justice.

00:04:33.080 We will make America great again.

00:04:36.100 Of course, that was his campaign slogan,

00:04:38.260 both in 2016, 2020, and 2024,

00:04:41.040 make America great again.

00:04:43.640 This would do just that.

00:04:44.960 This would actually extend beyond that.

00:04:46.320 This would make America safe again.

00:04:48.240 As you can imagine, liberals were not happy with this.

00:04:53.200 Those who suffer severely from TDS.

00:04:56.400 This guy put on Twitter, or on X, he says,

00:04:58.580 Trump even mentioning reopening Alcatraz 0.94

00:05:00.620 is absolutely abhorrent and disgusting. 0.98

00:05:02.960 Puts a knot in my stomach. 0.98

00:05:04.560 The only one who belongs in prison 0.99

00:05:06.560 is himself and his staff of Nazi a-holes. 0.95

00:05:10.660 Happy Monday. 0.66

00:05:11.580 Trump is a see you next Tuesday.

00:05:13.000 Clearly, they are taking it very, very well.

00:05:16.240 I wonder if this guy had a knot in his stomach

00:05:18.100 when Lakin Riley died.

00:05:21.980 I will never forget listening to that court proceeding

00:05:26.140 where Lakin Riley's father spoke,

00:05:29.100 and it broke me.

00:05:31.120 So I wonder if he felt that exact same way.

00:05:34.100 The controversy here is

00:05:36.420 that President Trump's plan to reopen Alcatraz

00:05:39.140 could cost around $2 billion per Axios.

00:05:42.000 Which, by the way, is $500 million

00:05:45.200 less than the Federal Reserve headquarters

00:05:47.980 renovations from Jerome Powell.

00:05:51.320 So how does a maximum security

00:05:53.340 abandoned island prison

00:05:55.640 cost less than a government office?

00:05:57.440 That's the question.

00:05:58.660 But let's watch this video

00:06:00.140 right here from Nancy Pelosi,

00:06:01.820 who says that the reopening of Alcatraz 1.00

00:06:03.780 is one of Trump's stupidest suggestions. 0.99

00:06:06.500 The president's notion about Alcatraz 1.00

00:06:12.240 with stiff competition, mind you, 1.00

00:06:15.820 is one of his stupidest suggestions. 1.00

00:06:19.140 Stiff competition. 1.00

00:06:20.480 There's so many other stupid ideas, 1.00

00:06:22.700 ideas, I don't even call them ideas, 1.00

00:06:24.940 notions that they have put forth.

00:06:27.400 The cost to shape it up

00:06:32.380 and the cost to run it

00:06:34.440 are just formidable.

00:06:36.540 And it's really sad because

00:06:37.880 they said we don't have enough money

00:06:39.240 to feed our children

00:06:40.220 or to get health care to people

00:06:42.120 because we're too busy

00:06:43.620 giving tax cuts to the rich.

00:06:45.180 But we have money for 0.82

00:06:46.580 really a ridiculous mission

00:06:49.140 that is never going to happen. 0.81

00:06:50.820 I think Nancy Pelosi 1.00

00:06:51.700 thinks this is stupid 1.00

00:06:53.300 because she can't buy stock in it. 1.00

00:06:55.380 Look, I don't want to hear a word

00:06:56.680 from Democrats about something

00:06:58.340 costing too much.

00:06:59.160 These are the same people

00:06:59.940 who spent billions of dollars,

00:07:01.700 who approved to spend

00:07:02.760 billions of dollars

00:07:04.000 on DEI grants

00:07:05.560 and initiatives and contracts.

00:07:06.960 These are the same people

00:07:08.060 who oppose DOGE,

00:07:09.900 the Department of Government Efficiency,

00:07:12.380 for crying out loud.

00:07:13.720 So that's what I think

00:07:15.420 about Nancy Pelosi.

00:07:16.520 Look, who would be my first pick

00:07:18.120 to go in these prisons?

00:07:20.160 I think, number one, Fauci.

00:07:21.260 And again, interesting,

00:07:22.080 President Trump

00:07:22.620 and his true social,

00:07:23.800 he said judges,

00:07:25.040 which hopefully that means

00:07:26.640 that there will be

00:07:27.260 some sort of crackdown

00:07:28.360 on these judicial figures,

00:07:31.300 unelected bureaucrats,

00:07:32.800 who continue to really circumvent

00:07:34.980 the American people,

00:07:36.200 what the American people voted for,

00:07:37.960 the president that 77 million people

00:07:41.740 turned out to support.

00:07:43.440 and to circumvent Congress,

00:07:45.020 quite frankly.

00:07:47.100 Yeah, Fauci,

00:07:47.960 I think he belongs there.

00:07:49.680 Who else?

00:07:51.080 People who don't put their bins up

00:07:52.780 when you go through TSA,

00:07:54.400 right, the security checkpoint

00:07:55.560 and airports.

00:07:56.360 If you go through that line,

00:07:57.980 you take your backpack

00:07:58.700 out of the bin,

00:07:59.320 your suitcase out of the bin,

00:08:00.160 and you leave that bin

00:08:01.180 on the little conveyor belt thing

00:08:02.720 without putting it

00:08:03.840 where it's intended to go,

00:08:05.880 straight to Alcatraz.

00:08:07.540 Who else?

00:08:08.380 People who film themselves

00:08:09.820 crying

00:08:10.780 and voluntarily post it

00:08:12.720 to the internet

00:08:13.860 for the world to see.

00:08:15.080 For the life of me,

00:08:15.760 I can't fathom this.

00:08:16.440 I cannot imagine,

00:08:17.160 like, number one,

00:08:18.840 sobbing,

00:08:20.420 thinking to myself

00:08:21.300 while in the midst

00:08:22.120 of a breakdown

00:08:22.840 that I need to film it,

00:08:24.120 filming it,

00:08:25.300 finishing the recording,

00:08:26.620 going back to watch it,

00:08:28.560 thinking,

00:08:28.960 yes, this is good

00:08:29.620 clicking posts

00:08:30.180 for the world to see.

00:08:31.060 Straight to Alcatraz.

00:08:32.600 I'm kidding, of course.

00:08:33.440 This prison institution

00:08:36.200 will house

00:08:36.880 the most heinous

00:08:38.940 of criminals,

00:08:39.880 which I believe

00:08:41.100 is a good thing.

00:08:41.900 I really do.

00:08:42.960 I don't think prisons,

00:08:44.220 especially, again,

00:08:44.960 those prisons

00:08:46.080 for the worst

00:08:46.800 of the worst criminals

00:08:47.540 this country has seen

00:08:49.440 who roam our streets,

00:08:51.140 I don't think they're meant

00:08:52.120 to be a luxury hotel.

00:08:53.800 I am all for

00:08:54.620 creating these, again,

00:08:57.680 penitentiaries

00:08:58.380 or institutions

00:08:59.320 surrounded by

00:09:00.920 very dangerous animals.

00:09:02.320 Again, whether that is

00:09:02.980 Alcatraz

00:09:03.500 surrounded by

00:09:04.740 great white sharks

00:09:05.460 or alligator Alcatraz

00:09:06.780 surrounded by alligators,

00:09:08.760 these are not meant

00:09:09.520 to be desirable situations

00:09:11.560 that you want

00:09:12.420 to find yourself in.

00:09:13.940 They are meant

00:09:14.700 to be a punishment.

00:09:16.380 Okay?

00:09:16.720 So, I'm all for it.

00:09:17.720 Maybe we can create one

00:09:18.600 in, like,

00:09:20.420 Antarctica

00:09:21.100 and have it

00:09:22.220 be surrounded by,

00:09:23.560 like, polar bears.

00:09:24.580 I don't know.

00:09:25.480 Anyways, I swam Alcatraz.

00:09:27.600 I debunked the myth.

00:09:28.960 Can you escape?

00:09:30.300 Yes, you can.

00:09:31.440 And again,

00:09:31.680 I did this at

00:09:32.240 31 Weeks Pregnant.

00:09:33.780 Actually, I did it

00:09:34.500 last year for the first time.

00:09:36.320 I was much more fit then.

00:09:38.560 I will say I was

00:09:39.100 a little more buoyant

00:09:39.860 this year.

00:09:40.480 Maybe that helped me.

00:09:41.740 But basically,

00:09:42.720 what happens is

00:09:43.540 that you ride a boat

00:09:44.800 out to the prison,

00:09:46.120 you're dropped off

00:09:46.980 at the prison,

00:09:47.540 and you swim back to shore.

00:09:48.720 It's about a mile

00:09:49.640 and a half swim.

00:09:51.920 So,

00:09:52.520 dropped off there.

00:09:54.620 It was pretty incredible,

00:09:55.960 actually.

00:09:56.640 I did this with a group

00:09:57.840 of current

00:09:59.080 and former Navy SEALs

00:10:00.620 and Army veterans.

00:10:02.200 I didn't publicize this

00:10:03.800 on my social medias

00:10:04.620 when I was posting

00:10:05.340 about this

00:10:05.740 because many of these

00:10:07.340 military members,

00:10:08.460 they cannot be mentioned

00:10:09.420 by name

00:10:10.740 or I cannot share

00:10:12.160 their stories.

00:10:12.920 They're incredible,

00:10:13.660 heroic stories

00:10:14.840 of what they've been able

00:10:15.740 to accomplish

00:10:16.320 because some of them

00:10:17.160 are still active duty.

00:10:18.480 It would put them

00:10:19.060 in a position

00:10:19.480 of being compromised.

00:10:20.520 And of course,

00:10:21.000 that is not something

00:10:21.740 that I want to do.

00:10:23.140 But nonetheless,

00:10:23.560 these people are heroes.

00:10:25.840 They are America's

00:10:27.080 unsung heroes.

00:10:27.920 And it was just amazing

00:10:29.600 to be able to,

00:10:30.560 for a few days,

00:10:31.900 have that time

00:10:33.220 of fellowship

00:10:34.120 and companionship

00:10:35.340 and be able to talk

00:10:36.200 with them

00:10:36.540 and honor them.

00:10:38.140 I left this experience

00:10:39.880 for the second year in a row

00:10:41.140 just feeling

00:10:42.420 so overwhelmed

00:10:43.640 with gratitude

00:10:44.180 for those who

00:10:44.960 put themselves

00:10:45.840 and their lives

00:10:46.940 at risk.

00:10:48.140 I can mention

00:10:48.800 some of these people

00:10:49.400 I swam with,

00:10:49.900 one of those being

00:10:50.460 Charles Keating III.

00:10:52.220 He actually swam

00:10:53.720 in the Montreal

00:10:54.280 Summer Olympics in 1976.

00:10:56.320 So it was remarkable

00:10:57.740 to be able to swim

00:10:58.900 alongside him.

00:11:00.260 Obviously,

00:11:00.560 he's a bit older

00:11:01.140 at this point,

00:11:01.820 but just how fast,

00:11:03.420 how efficient

00:11:04.180 his stroke was,

00:11:05.180 was incredible.

00:11:06.600 But beyond his own

00:11:07.520 accomplishments

00:11:07.980 in swimming

00:11:09.460 and for the United States,

00:11:11.560 what he's been able

00:11:12.800 to build out

00:11:13.540 following a horrific incident

00:11:15.260 that his family faced,

00:11:16.220 he has a nonprofit

00:11:16.880 now called C4,

00:11:18.360 which is really there

00:11:19.780 to provide assistance

00:11:20.800 and guidance

00:11:21.260 and resources

00:11:21.900 to families

00:11:22.840 of military members

00:11:24.580 in high-stress environments

00:11:26.680 and circumstances.

00:11:28.040 So awesome stuff,

00:11:28.880 but again,

00:11:29.140 this follows

00:11:29.500 a pretty tragic scenario

00:11:31.800 where his son,

00:11:33.340 who's also named

00:11:34.460 Charles Keating IV,

00:11:36.660 he was a U.S. Navy SEAL.

00:11:38.600 He was actually

00:11:39.260 a sniper with the SEALs,

00:11:40.780 but he was killed

00:11:41.420 in action

00:11:42.000 against ISIS forces

00:11:43.840 in Iraq in 2016.

00:11:46.940 Following this,

00:11:48.020 he was awarded

00:11:48.700 the Navy Cross,

00:11:49.440 which is the U.S. military's

00:11:51.320 second highest award

00:11:52.380 for valor.

00:11:53.480 I think he was

00:11:54.020 the third

00:11:54.760 American service member

00:11:56.500 to be killed 0.91

00:11:57.220 while fighting 0.99

00:11:58.860 ISIL in Iraq

00:12:01.400 in 2016.

00:12:02.800 Again,

00:12:03.120 really horrific

00:12:03.960 circumstances,

00:12:05.340 but to see

00:12:06.260 what these families

00:12:07.520 have been able

00:12:08.060 to build

00:12:08.660 surrounding things

00:12:09.500 to help out

00:12:10.040 other families

00:12:10.640 is really remarkable.

00:12:12.820 We swam with

00:12:13.560 a man named

00:12:14.280 Paul DeGelder,

00:12:15.580 who is a double amputee.

00:12:17.980 Actually,

00:12:18.340 now he's a Shark Week host.

00:12:20.440 He's an Australian

00:12:21.260 former Army paratrooper

00:12:23.040 and elite Navy

00:12:24.500 clearance diver

00:12:25.180 who survived

00:12:26.200 a shark attack

00:12:27.400 in 2009,

00:12:28.860 losing his right,

00:12:29.920 I believe,

00:12:30.320 his right hand

00:12:31.100 and leg

00:12:32.100 to a bull shark

00:12:33.120 during a routine

00:12:34.660 counterterrorism exercise

00:12:36.060 in the Sydney Harbor.

00:12:37.920 Let's watch this video.

00:12:38.600 Comes to facing off

00:12:39.940 with the planet's

00:12:40.700 greatest predators.

00:12:42.580 Few are more qualified

00:12:43.700 than shark attack survivor

00:12:45.220 Paul DeGelder.

00:12:46.980 In 2009,

00:12:48.600 I was working

00:12:49.100 with the Australian

00:12:49.760 Navy clearance diving teams.

00:12:51.500 I was doing

00:12:52.000 a counterterrorism exercise

00:12:53.420 in Sydney Harbor

00:12:54.600 right alongside

00:12:55.280 the Navy base.

00:12:56.220 I was swimming

00:12:56.620 from point A

00:12:57.380 to point B.

00:12:58.200 That's it.

00:12:58.680 On the surface,

00:12:59.540 on my back,

00:13:00.180 kicking my legs

00:13:00.800 and all of a sudden,

00:13:02.180 I felt this pressure

00:13:03.220 on my leg

00:13:04.100 and I turned around

00:13:06.820 and came face to face

00:13:08.320 with a massive shark's head.

00:13:12.760 And then my survival

00:13:14.040 instincts kicked in

00:13:15.000 and I thought,

00:13:15.680 I've got to get out

00:13:16.640 of this somehow.

00:13:17.520 And I thought,

00:13:18.160 I've seen shark week, 0.97

00:13:19.200 I'll jab it in the eyeball. 0.99

00:13:21.280 But the shark actually 0.99

00:13:22.420 had my right hand

00:13:23.740 and I couldn't move it.

00:13:25.120 I grabbed it by the nose 0.96

00:13:26.200 and I tried to lever it off me,

00:13:27.760 but that did absolutely nothing.

00:13:29.920 It took me underwater

00:13:31.040 and it just kept shaking me

00:13:32.900 and thrashing me,

00:13:33.940 the teeth soaring

00:13:35.120 through my hand

00:13:36.000 and my leg.

00:13:38.160 The shark,

00:13:39.260 in its infinite power,

00:13:40.940 had almost surgically

00:13:42.040 removed my entire hamstring

00:13:43.620 and ripped off my hand

00:13:44.700 at the same time.

00:13:45.880 My hand was just shredded.

00:13:47.960 From the moment it grabbed me

00:13:49.200 to the moment that I popped up

00:13:50.560 out of the water

00:13:51.120 was only eight seconds.

00:13:52.860 So what do you do

00:13:53.560 when you survive

00:13:54.220 a shark attack

00:13:55.460 that takes your right arm

00:13:56.840 and your right leg?

00:13:57.560 You go back into the water

00:13:59.720 and you swim Alcatraz

00:14:01.060 and you become a host

00:14:02.240 with Shark Week,

00:14:03.240 which is this week,

00:14:04.300 by the way.

00:14:04.700 It feels very timely.

00:14:05.880 Again, another incredible story.

00:14:07.780 How did it go for me?

00:14:09.400 I think this year,

00:14:10.860 comparing it to last year,

00:14:12.680 obviously being this far along

00:14:14.300 in the pregnancy,

00:14:15.700 I felt great.

00:14:16.940 I felt great.

00:14:17.640 If you've watched

00:14:18.220 the episode I made

00:14:19.740 with my husband,

00:14:21.080 I think around 26 weeks pregnant

00:14:22.840 when I announced my pregnancy

00:14:23.880 to the world

00:14:24.800 when I revealed this

00:14:25.780 exciting news,

00:14:26.820 I shared with you all there

00:14:28.400 that I have had virtually

00:14:29.460 no symptoms

00:14:30.400 the entire pregnancy.

00:14:31.800 I have felt awesome,

00:14:33.760 pretty much the exact same

00:14:35.100 as I did pre-pregnancy,

00:14:36.760 pre-conception,

00:14:37.680 but now my pants

00:14:38.600 just don't fit

00:14:39.580 as well as they once did.

00:14:42.360 But otherwise,

00:14:43.400 I've still been able

00:14:44.380 to do everything

00:14:45.180 that I did prior to pregnancy

00:14:46.740 in terms of exercise.

00:14:48.980 I run,

00:14:50.400 I mean,

00:14:50.900 close to 30-ish miles a week,

00:14:53.980 still swimming here and there,

00:14:55.700 still lifting.

00:14:56.820 Doing everything

00:14:57.740 that I can

00:14:58.580 to stay fit

00:14:59.260 and to stay in shape

00:15:00.740 and to make recovery

00:15:01.840 postpartum a breeze.

00:15:03.760 And I think being fit

00:15:05.040 is a large part

00:15:06.440 prior to pregnancy

00:15:07.280 is a large part

00:15:07.900 of why I have felt

00:15:08.780 so great

00:15:09.320 during my pregnancy.

00:15:11.560 So,

00:15:12.660 again,

00:15:13.140 dropped off at the prison

00:15:13.920 probably about like

00:15:15.120 a third of the way in.

00:15:16.400 So let's say

00:15:17.140 you've done

00:15:18.000 close to half a mile

00:15:20.140 at this point.

00:15:22.160 Bear in mind,

00:15:22.960 it's really,

00:15:23.680 really cold.

00:15:24.680 I think the water

00:15:25.860 is around 55 degrees,

00:15:27.820 which doesn't sound

00:15:29.380 too cold

00:15:29.740 in terms of air temperature,

00:15:30.960 but really,

00:15:32.420 really cold

00:15:32.940 when you're in water.

00:15:34.840 So it's around 55 degrees.

00:15:38.180 That's got to be

00:15:38.920 the worst part.

00:15:39.500 More than the sharks,

00:15:40.300 more than the current,

00:15:41.060 more than anything else

00:15:41.860 is just how cold it is.

00:15:43.400 So about a third

00:15:44.040 of the way in,

00:15:45.360 I start getting pretty dizzy.

00:15:47.240 I don't know

00:15:48.000 if it was the current,

00:15:49.680 again,

00:15:49.980 kind of leading you

00:15:50.760 one way

00:15:51.280 all while getting hit

00:15:52.480 with waves

00:15:53.040 that are coming

00:15:53.520 another way.

00:15:54.560 I don't know

00:15:55.260 if it was pregnancy.

00:15:56.160 I talked to my OB

00:15:56.860 about this afterwards.

00:15:58.000 I had an appointment,

00:15:58.720 actually,

00:16:00.780 you know,

00:16:01.000 just a standard

00:16:01.520 routine appointment

00:16:02.240 that you have every,

00:16:03.340 for me,

00:16:03.620 every two weeks

00:16:04.100 at this point.

00:16:04.940 And I told him,

00:16:05.660 you know,

00:16:05.780 I was really dizzy

00:16:06.360 when I was swimming.

00:16:06.980 He was like,

00:16:07.320 well,

00:16:07.880 of course,

00:16:08.220 when you're pregnant,

00:16:08.740 your body carries fluid.

00:16:09.780 You might have

00:16:10.120 some of that in your ears.

00:16:11.100 Having water in your ears,

00:16:12.180 too,

00:16:12.340 could affect,

00:16:12.840 you know,

00:16:13.740 how you're feeling

00:16:14.480 in terms of your balance,

00:16:15.500 being dizzy.

00:16:16.420 So it's very dizzy.

00:16:17.180 So at one point,

00:16:18.160 you know,

00:16:18.740 just incredibly disoriented.

00:16:19.860 I'm like swimming

00:16:20.320 back to the prison.

00:16:21.300 Where am I?

00:16:21.860 I don't know.

00:16:22.680 Got back on track,

00:16:23.840 made it to shore,

00:16:25.880 really with no major problems.

00:16:28.940 About 35 minutes

00:16:31.160 for me to complete this swim.

00:16:33.780 Again,

00:16:34.100 not too bad.

00:16:35.780 But as I alluded to

00:16:36.740 in the intro of this episode,

00:16:38.900 me swimming this event,

00:16:41.820 it wasn't even really

00:16:42.480 like a formal event.

00:16:43.440 It was like

00:16:43.840 just a little gathering

00:16:45.980 that we all decided to do.

00:16:47.260 Okay?

00:16:47.380 It was no formal thing

00:16:48.980 really put together

00:16:50.180 or it was not a race

00:16:51.320 or anything like that.

00:16:52.520 Following this swim

00:16:54.240 that myself

00:16:55.320 and these incredible seals did,

00:16:56.720 my husband actually

00:16:57.520 swam it with us too,

00:16:58.280 by the way,

00:16:59.220 following this,

00:17:00.860 it broke the minds

00:17:02.520 of liberals.

00:17:03.700 The same liberals

00:17:04.420 who are still getting tested

00:17:05.780 for COVID

00:17:06.760 in the year 2025,

00:17:08.380 seriously,

00:17:08.780 by the way,

00:17:09.340 are mad at me

00:17:10.320 for swimming

00:17:11.320 in the San Francisco Bay

00:17:13.600 waters

00:17:14.620 in my third trimester

00:17:15.900 of pregnancy.

00:17:16.500 I posted this

00:17:17.960 to social media.

00:17:19.000 I said,

00:17:19.480 escaped Alcatraz

00:17:20.220 at nearly 31 weeks pregnant.

00:17:21.740 I'm basically just

00:17:22.540 a human submarine 0.98

00:17:23.340 for baby girl,

00:17:24.360 which I thought

00:17:24.920 was kind of funny

00:17:25.540 and that's what I was thinking

00:17:26.640 literally in my head

00:17:27.500 as I was swimming.

00:17:28.180 I'm like,

00:17:28.380 she gets to do this

00:17:29.200 with zero output.

00:17:30.840 I'm like,

00:17:31.300 I'm like her submarine here.

00:17:33.680 But let me read you

00:17:35.140 just a few of the comments

00:17:36.900 that I received

00:17:37.960 following this.

00:17:38.740 Again,

00:17:39.560 it got about

00:17:40.640 77,000 likes.

00:17:42.420 I don't know how many views

00:17:43.120 it's at at this point,

00:17:43.860 but as you can imagine,

00:17:46.080 I mean,

00:17:46.260 tons of support,

00:17:47.080 by the way,

00:17:47.800 people who are,

00:17:49.100 I mean,

00:17:49.680 who expressed

00:17:50.800 how much in awe

00:17:52.580 they were

00:17:53.180 of my willingness,

00:17:55.240 number one,

00:17:55.600 to do this

00:17:56.040 and two,

00:17:56.640 the ability to do this

00:17:57.600 as far along

00:17:58.080 in the pregnancy,

00:17:59.200 but did not stop

00:18:00.280 the haters.

00:18:01.200 This guy says,

00:18:02.120 I guess putting your baby

00:18:03.460 at risk for clicks

00:18:04.560 was a decision.

00:18:05.620 I wonder where

00:18:07.920 he got his doctorate.

00:18:10.720 I didn't know

00:18:11.160 Twitter had so many

00:18:12.020 like OBGYNs 0.99

00:18:14.080 or doctors

00:18:14.800 who suddenly

00:18:15.580 know more about

00:18:16.900 pregnancy

00:18:17.520 and exercising

00:18:18.920 when pregnant

00:18:19.600 than my OB did

00:18:20.700 who cleared me

00:18:21.420 to do this.

00:18:22.680 This person says,

00:18:23.760 maybe not the best time

00:18:24.720 to swim in the ocean.

00:18:26.340 LOL,

00:18:26.840 but what do I know?

00:18:28.600 Nothing.

00:18:29.600 Actually,

00:18:30.000 you know nothing,

00:18:30.720 at least about pregnancy

00:18:31.780 and again,

00:18:32.800 exercising during pregnancy.

00:18:34.360 This person says,

00:18:35.280 why do this

00:18:36.040 when you're pregnant? 0.99

00:18:36.760 Seems dumb, 1.00

00:18:37.540 pointless, 0.99

00:18:37.900 and not worth it.

00:18:40.160 Again,

00:18:40.760 I think I feel so great

00:18:42.560 and I have the entire time

00:18:44.240 because I have done

00:18:45.360 things like this

00:18:46.060 regularly,

00:18:46.960 whether being pregnant

00:18:47.780 or not being pregnant.

00:18:49.560 This person,

00:18:50.560 I like this one,

00:18:51.760 it says,

00:18:52.140 I'm shocked

00:18:52.600 you can still swim

00:18:53.420 given the crippling PTSD

00:18:55.160 you seemingly

00:18:55.980 are suffering from

00:18:56.840 after tying for fifth place.

00:18:58.580 You're so strong.

00:19:00.620 This is so old

00:19:01.680 and tired,

00:19:02.580 but again,

00:19:04.380 in one ear,

00:19:04.920 out the other

00:19:05.760 does not hurt my feelings.

00:19:06.800 I guarantee you

00:19:07.420 this person commented it

00:19:08.340 from their couch.

00:19:13.080 This person says,

00:19:14.240 I'm sure this was worth

00:19:15.160 putting your baby at risk.

00:19:17.220 I love this one.

00:19:18.960 This guy says,

00:19:19.960 this is pretty,

00:19:21.340 this is pretty amazing.

00:19:23.060 He says,

00:19:23.680 imagine the torturous,

00:19:25.100 horrific conditions

00:19:25.820 for the fetus.

00:19:27.460 Breathing.

00:19:28.680 Oh no.

00:19:29.740 Breathing.

00:19:30.780 Muscle squeezing,

00:19:32.120 adrenaline overdosing,

00:19:33.380 massive pressure

00:19:34.040 on the cervix,

00:19:34.960 womb,

00:19:35.300 sac,

00:19:35.600 and fetus.

00:19:36.120 Then the sloshing

00:19:37.160 and incredibly loud noises.

00:19:38.880 Quite the sadistic torture.

00:19:40.380 Hope the fetus survives 1.00

00:19:41.620 the mother's idiocy 1.00

00:19:42.520 to be born healthy. 1.00

00:19:44.060 Poor baby.

00:19:45.280 First of all,

00:19:46.480 my child,

00:19:47.620 my developing child

00:19:48.520 in the womb

00:19:48.960 is not a fetus

00:19:50.900 at this point.

00:19:52.160 It's like,

00:19:52.960 if she were to be born,

00:19:54.700 obviously not ideal

00:19:55.740 to be born nine weeks early.

00:19:58.200 And no one can say

00:19:59.100 what is to,

00:20:00.360 you know,

00:20:00.580 for certain happen.

00:20:02.180 But viability

00:20:03.260 is 24-ish weeks.

00:20:06.220 So to have a baby

00:20:07.080 at 31 weeks,

00:20:07.860 again,

00:20:08.200 not ideal.

00:20:09.040 And I'm sure

00:20:09.360 there are circumstances

00:20:10.120 where it has resulted

00:20:11.640 in not fantastic outcomes.

00:20:13.920 But this is a child.

00:20:15.380 Okay.

00:20:15.740 So this whole fetus thing 0.93

00:20:17.380 is silly. 0.89

00:20:19.560 I mean, 0.99

00:20:20.120 bare minimum,

00:20:21.140 he's aware

00:20:21.760 women have a cervix 1.00

00:20:23.620 and a womb.

00:20:24.720 So that's good news,

00:20:25.860 I guess.

00:20:26.200 But outside of that,

00:20:27.880 he knows less than

00:20:29.420 than nothing about biology.

00:20:30.660 To say

00:20:31.280 the incredibly loud noises,

00:20:34.520 there was nothing loud

00:20:36.940 about being in that water.

00:20:39.680 The muscle squeezing,

00:20:42.280 I think she feels

00:20:42.960 my muscles squeezing

00:20:43.800 more when I cough.

00:20:45.300 Okay.

00:20:46.120 Breathing,

00:20:46.860 you're right.

00:20:47.580 Let me just stop that

00:20:48.340 really quick.

00:20:48.860 Let me just stop breathing.

00:20:49.920 Good idea.

00:20:51.280 Brian,

00:20:52.580 he sounds

00:20:54.000 like he would get winded

00:20:55.260 going up about

00:20:56.340 five steps,

00:20:58.280 five stairs.

00:20:59.540 He sounds

00:21:00.220 incredibly unhealthy.

00:21:01.240 He sounds

00:21:01.880 vaccinated,

00:21:03.720 quite frankly.

00:21:04.780 So that is 0.98

00:21:05.900 just ridiculous. 0.83

00:21:08.380 One of my 0.87

00:21:09.300 favorite things

00:21:10.080 to come out

00:21:10.720 of this

00:21:11.780 situation

00:21:12.680 is this article

00:21:13.760 that the

00:21:14.960 San Francisco

00:21:15.860 Chronicle

00:21:16.600 posted about.

00:21:17.600 I guess

00:21:18.820 this is like

00:21:19.620 a satirical

00:21:21.340 account.

00:21:23.020 The headline is

00:21:23.720 Riley Gaines

00:21:24.520 makes the swim

00:21:25.200 from Alcatraz.

00:21:26.200 Ties for fifth place

00:21:27.300 behind 61-year-old

00:21:28.620 former supervisor

00:21:29.680 Aaron Peskin.

00:21:31.720 Again,

00:21:32.100 kind of funny.

00:21:32.680 Like,

00:21:32.820 I can laugh at this,

00:21:33.820 right?

00:21:34.220 I have a sense of humor

00:21:35.500 unlike the other side.

00:21:38.420 Obviously,

00:21:39.400 this is

00:21:39.820 totally made up.

00:21:41.440 It's a lie,

00:21:41.880 but it caught traction

00:21:42.800 on social media.

00:21:44.500 Nearly 10 million

00:21:45.560 views.

00:21:46.920 10 million

00:21:47.480 people saw this

00:21:48.640 and thought that I tied

00:21:49.620 with whoever

00:21:50.500 Aaron Peskin is,

00:21:51.460 which I went on

00:21:52.240 to find out

00:21:52.660 he was a 61-year-old

00:21:54.680 retired politician

00:21:55.620 who is five foot two.

00:21:57.700 I hope I could

00:21:58.480 take him

00:21:59.320 in a

00:22:00.400 swim

00:22:01.600 of any length,

00:22:02.840 any distance

00:22:03.560 as a Division I

00:22:05.760 athlete.

00:22:06.300 This was funny to me

00:22:07.060 because I think

00:22:07.760 they were, like,

00:22:08.660 owning themselves

00:22:09.380 without ever even

00:22:10.520 knowing that that's

00:22:11.600 what they were doing.

00:22:13.120 Number one,

00:22:13.880 the implication being

00:22:14.740 that something is

00:22:15.400 wrong with fifth place.

00:22:17.580 Again,

00:22:18.300 when they allude

00:22:19.020 to Riley getting

00:22:20.040 fifth place,

00:22:20.900 it's fifth

00:22:21.500 in the entire country.

00:22:23.600 Didn't go

00:22:24.520 my best time

00:22:25.800 when I placed fifth,

00:22:27.920 but nonetheless,

00:22:28.920 it's a feat

00:22:29.260 that I'm incredibly

00:22:29.800 proud of.

00:22:30.480 And those four women 1.00

00:22:31.140 who beat me

00:22:31.780 are phenoms,

00:22:32.980 are superstars,

00:22:33.840 are the best of the best,

00:22:35.000 are all Americans.

00:22:36.440 Some of them

00:22:37.120 are Olympians,

00:22:38.520 Olympic medalists,

00:22:39.400 okay?

00:22:39.600 Like,

00:22:40.220 they're phenoms

00:22:41.600 in their sport.

00:22:42.540 They're world-class

00:22:43.540 athletes.

00:22:44.340 So to be able

00:22:45.560 to even be in contention,

00:22:47.880 that be in the same field

00:22:49.120 as those women,

00:22:50.960 is something that

00:22:52.060 I'll forever be proud of,

00:22:53.400 no matter what people

00:22:54.400 like Keith Olbermann say.

00:22:57.240 And again,

00:22:57.880 to prove the point

00:22:58.540 that I think

00:22:59.700 with this headline

00:23:00.380 that the San Francisco

00:23:01.200 Chronicle put out,

00:23:02.900 that men are just

00:23:04.220 inherently better

00:23:05.280 swimmers

00:23:06.040 due to their

00:23:07.600 genetic

00:23:08.680 musculature,

00:23:09.920 their stature,

00:23:11.560 their wingspan,

00:23:12.700 their heart size,

00:23:14.220 their lung size,

00:23:14.980 right?

00:23:15.140 Like,

00:23:15.340 all of the different

00:23:15.960 scientific things

00:23:16.660 that go into it.

00:23:18.760 That's the point

00:23:19.580 I've been trying to make.

00:23:21.180 Again,

00:23:21.780 I think I could beat

00:23:22.680 Aaron Peskin,

00:23:23.840 whoever that is,

00:23:24.960 but nonetheless,

00:23:26.040 on average,

00:23:26.880 especially when we're

00:23:27.500 talking about

00:23:28.000 at the same

00:23:28.800 competitive level,

00:23:29.940 like,

00:23:30.140 if you have

00:23:30.440 the world record

00:23:31.340 200 backstroke

00:23:33.420 swimmer

00:23:34.360 in the men's division

00:23:35.740 competing against

00:23:36.780 the world record

00:23:37.560 200 backstroke holder

00:23:38.760 in the women's division,

00:23:39.720 obviously you know

00:23:40.720 who,

00:23:41.900 what time

00:23:42.580 is faster here,

00:23:43.680 who would win

00:23:44.280 in a race.

00:23:45.100 So this is kind of

00:23:45.800 proof that men

00:23:46.340 don't belong in

00:23:46.860 women's sports,

00:23:47.880 but the San Francisco

00:23:49.180 Chronicle is 1.00

00:23:50.080 simply too stupid 1.00

00:23:51.420 to know that. 1.00

00:23:53.160 So,

00:23:53.780 it was fun fielding

00:23:54.740 all of the

00:23:56.460 nastiness 0.74

00:23:58.060 that comes with it.

00:23:59.640 Will I swim it

00:24:00.500 again next year?

00:24:01.820 Absolutely.

00:24:02.300 God willing

00:24:04.080 that I'm healthy.

00:24:05.580 Baby girl

00:24:06.280 will be in tote.

00:24:07.520 Obviously,

00:24:08.000 she will be

00:24:08.600 on the boat

00:24:09.660 swimming

00:24:11.280 or coming back

00:24:12.220 to shore

00:24:12.540 on the boat

00:24:12.960 where I will be

00:24:14.100 swimming in the water.

00:24:15.760 So,

00:24:16.240 hopefully next year

00:24:17.380 we can make

00:24:17.980 some more people

00:24:18.880 angry.

00:24:19.860 Again,

00:24:20.360 one of my

00:24:20.800 favorite pastimes.

00:24:23.240 And I,

00:24:23.560 of course,

00:24:24.060 I still agree

00:24:24.640 with President Trump

00:24:26.400 in the fact that

00:24:27.460 Alcatraz

00:24:28.020 should be

00:24:29.160 rebuilt.

00:24:30.620 It should be

00:24:31.320 a place that

00:24:32.700 again,

00:24:33.220 houses the worst

00:24:33.940 of the worst,

00:24:34.500 the most violent

00:24:35.040 as he says

00:24:35.780 in his true social

00:24:36.600 that he put out.

00:24:37.680 People who are

00:24:38.260 roaming our streets

00:24:39.000 causing mayhem,

00:24:40.240 destruction,

00:24:41.280 bloodshed.

00:24:42.140 Those are the people

00:24:42.800 who deserve to be

00:24:43.560 in Alcatraz,

00:24:44.400 both in the Bay

00:24:45.340 and in Florida

00:24:46.680 in Alligator Alcatraz.

00:24:48.420 Maybe we can work

00:24:49.140 on my idea

00:24:49.940 of having something

00:24:51.000 in Antarctica

00:24:52.340 surrounded by

00:24:54.180 polar bears.

00:24:55.020 There's a,

00:24:57.180 like a,

00:24:59.100 like a theory

00:25:00.060 out there,

00:25:00.600 these prisoners

00:25:01.140 that escaped

00:25:02.480 or did they escape?

00:25:03.540 That's the bigger

00:25:04.220 question I think here.

00:25:05.680 Let's look at that

00:25:06.400 really quick.

00:25:07.780 Again,

00:25:08.040 Alcatraz,

00:25:08.460 remember,

00:25:08.740 it was built

00:25:09.140 to be inescapable.

00:25:10.540 It's a mile and a half

00:25:11.240 about off the shore,

00:25:12.600 freezing cold waters,

00:25:13.660 shark infested waters.

00:25:14.760 They've got great whites 0.89

00:25:15.440 apparently there,

00:25:16.560 deadly ocean currents.

00:25:19.120 They've got armed guards

00:25:19.900 in every single tower.

00:25:20.740 And for years,

00:25:22.120 no one did escape

00:25:22.960 until 1962.

00:25:26.260 Again,

00:25:26.740 this is the most famous

00:25:28.600 prison break story

00:25:30.620 in history.

00:25:32.780 It's how some of the most,

00:25:33.920 you think of the people

00:25:34.780 that Alcatraz

00:25:35.400 in its past has,

00:25:37.940 has housed,

00:25:39.120 I guess if that's the word

00:25:40.020 you want to use.

00:25:41.100 Al Capone,

00:25:42.240 Machine Gun Kelly,

00:25:43.240 Robert Stroud,

00:25:43.900 again, 0.98

00:25:44.080 really dangerous criminals.

00:25:46.000 But there were three men

00:25:47.340 who took it upon themselves

00:25:49.340 to defy

00:25:50.420 these odds

00:25:51.400 that Alcatraz

00:25:52.040 was inescapable.

00:25:53.220 One of them being

00:25:53.960 Frank Morris.

00:25:54.720 The thing about Frank Morris

00:25:55.660 is allegedly

00:25:56.880 he was like a genius

00:25:58.180 with an IQ of

00:25:59.380 I think 130,

00:26:00.980 135,

00:26:01.840 something in that realm.

00:26:03.060 And he had a history

00:26:04.180 of jailbreaks.

00:26:05.400 Then you had

00:26:06.120 two other men.

00:26:07.700 These were brothers,

00:26:08.920 Josh Englund

00:26:09.760 and Clarence Englund.

00:26:11.020 They were both

00:26:11.560 skilled swimmers

00:26:12.620 of the bunch.

00:26:14.520 They had a fourth inmate,

00:26:16.120 I believe,

00:26:16.640 who was attempting

00:26:18.060 to help them

00:26:19.060 with this prison break,

00:26:20.020 but he didn't actually

00:26:20.700 make it out.

00:26:22.600 So what they were

00:26:23.640 going to do,

00:26:24.140 number one,

00:26:24.540 they created this

00:26:25.240 meticulous plan

00:26:26.000 where they were going

00:26:26.500 to dig an escape route.

00:26:28.100 They did this

00:26:29.000 using stolen spoons,

00:26:31.000 makeshift tools,

00:26:31.820 they chipped away

00:26:32.480 at their air vents

00:26:33.720 in their cells

00:26:34.880 and then they made

00:26:35.600 these decoys.

00:26:36.660 So they crafted

00:26:37.460 these lifelike

00:26:38.540 dummy heads

00:26:39.660 from soap, 0.98

00:26:40.700 from cement dust.

00:26:42.240 One of the things

00:26:42.840 they would do is,

00:26:43.680 of course,

00:26:44.140 these prisons,

00:26:44.800 you know,

00:26:45.000 the inmates

00:26:45.760 can have jobs.

00:26:47.120 One of them

00:26:47.780 is the prison barber.

00:26:49.780 They have a barbershop

00:26:50.440 in the prison

00:26:50.820 for the inmates

00:26:51.380 to get their hair cut.

00:26:52.360 They would take

00:26:53.020 the real human hair

00:26:54.220 from the prison barbershop

00:26:56.180 to create

00:26:57.440 these decoys.

00:26:58.800 So when the decoy,

00:26:59.960 so when they decided

00:27:00.500 they would ultimately

00:27:01.060 break out,

00:27:01.780 they would leave their cell,

00:27:02.660 they would put this decoy

00:27:03.380 in their bed

00:27:04.000 or at nights

00:27:05.180 when they were going

00:27:06.040 to work on their,

00:27:07.500 again,

00:27:07.780 the plan that they

00:27:08.740 were devising,

00:27:09.720 they'd put the decoy

00:27:10.320 in the bed,

00:27:10.820 they would have

00:27:11.120 real human hair.

00:27:12.240 So when guards

00:27:12.740 walked by,

00:27:13.220 it looked like

00:27:13.640 they were asleep

00:27:14.340 in their bed.

00:27:15.520 Then they built,

00:27:16.420 the next step

00:27:16.960 was to build a raft.

00:27:18.300 They stitched together,

00:27:19.620 I think it was

00:27:20.060 over 50 raincoats.

00:27:21.760 They sealed them

00:27:22.500 with heat

00:27:23.200 to form a watertight

00:27:24.840 escape raft.

00:27:27.140 And I think

00:27:28.000 the final step here

00:27:29.360 was to find

00:27:30.120 the perfect exit.

00:27:31.860 They located a vent

00:27:33.320 that led to the roof

00:27:35.360 that was unguarded,

00:27:37.120 apparently,

00:27:37.720 and barely noticed.

00:27:39.100 And every night

00:27:39.820 at 930,

00:27:40.940 during,

00:27:41.280 I think they had

00:27:41.920 this thing called

00:27:42.320 music hour.

00:27:43.760 They would use

00:27:44.540 that noise

00:27:45.140 during music hour

00:27:46.060 to cover the sound

00:27:47.100 of their digging

00:27:47.840 and slowly but surely

00:27:48.940 they carved a hole

00:27:49.980 big enough to crawl

00:27:51.300 through into an

00:27:52.720 unguarded maintenance

00:27:53.780 corridor.

00:27:55.040 And then,

00:27:55.820 on this night in June

00:27:56.920 in 1962,

00:27:58.460 about 930 p.m.,

00:28:00.280 Morris and the 0.74

00:28:01.500 two Anglin brothers,

00:28:02.500 they climbed

00:28:03.220 through their escape tunnel,

00:28:04.580 they made their way

00:28:05.300 to the roof

00:28:05.920 via the plumbing pipes,

00:28:07.520 they used a

00:28:08.000 homemade wrench

00:28:08.780 crafted from a bed frame

00:28:10.140 to remove the rooftop vent.

00:28:12.380 They descended,

00:28:13.960 crossed the yard,

00:28:14.880 scaled,

00:28:15.200 I think,

00:28:15.400 a 15-foot fence,

00:28:17.260 reached the shoreline.

00:28:18.240 They inflated the raft,

00:28:19.700 they vanished

00:28:20.380 into the dark bay.

00:28:23.840 I think the fourth member

00:28:25.040 who I was telling you about

00:28:25.920 who worked with them

00:28:27.000 on this plan,

00:28:27.780 he couldn't widen

00:28:28.720 his hole in time,

00:28:30.200 so he got left behind.

00:28:32.260 It wasn't until

00:28:33.840 the next morning,

00:28:34.760 so again,

00:28:35.020 that's around 9 p.m.

00:28:35.980 at night,

00:28:36.280 it wasn't until

00:28:36.740 the next morning

00:28:37.420 that the guards

00:28:38.480 discovered the fake heads,

00:28:40.700 again,

00:28:41.080 with the real human hair,

00:28:42.380 and that's when Alcatraz

00:28:43.020 went into full lockdown.

00:28:46.200 Army,

00:28:46.860 FBI,

00:28:47.440 Coast Guard,

00:28:47.860 they launched

00:28:48.220 this massive search,

00:28:49.920 but what they found

00:28:51.300 was pretty chilling.

00:28:53.160 In the days following,

00:28:53.960 they found a homemade paddle

00:28:54.980 floating near Angel Island,

00:28:56.700 which is likely

00:28:58.100 the destination

00:28:58.700 that they were trying

00:28:59.360 to reach.

00:28:59.760 They found a waterproof bag.

00:29:02.380 This had some of

00:29:03.200 their personal items

00:29:03.980 like family photos.

00:29:05.420 It had a list

00:29:05.940 of phone numbers,

00:29:07.260 a letter actually

00:29:08.700 to Clarence Anglin

00:29:09.660 was washed ashore.

00:29:11.980 They found life vests

00:29:13.300 with bite marks

00:29:14.700 that were discovered

00:29:15.440 90 meters from Alcatraz.

00:29:17.980 The list goes on

00:29:19.100 of the different things

00:29:20.560 that they found,

00:29:21.280 so what happened to them?

00:29:23.340 That's the question.

00:29:24.320 Theory number one

00:29:24.860 is that they drowned.

00:29:26.820 Probably the most likely,

00:29:28.400 if I had to guess,

00:29:30.180 again,

00:29:31.560 just having done it twice

00:29:32.760 at this point,

00:29:33.980 how cold it is,

00:29:35.300 you can only imagine

00:29:36.400 that these prisoners

00:29:37.420 were probably malnourished.

00:29:39.480 I swam with a wetsuit,

00:29:40.960 which keeps you

00:29:42.160 a little more insulated,

00:29:44.660 but being,

00:29:45.680 I would imagine,

00:29:46.180 very skinny,

00:29:47.580 one of the men

00:29:49.220 was not a skilled swimmer.

00:29:51.860 That's why I believe

00:29:53.120 they probably drowned,

00:29:55.020 but again,

00:29:56.800 hasn't been proved

00:29:57.340 because the bodies

00:29:57.820 were never,

00:29:58.180 they've never been found.

00:29:59.840 Theory number two

00:30:00.560 is they escaped

00:30:01.240 and fled to South America.

00:30:02.720 This is what a lot

00:30:03.260 of people think.

00:30:05.380 Apparently,

00:30:06.020 the mom of the Anglin brothers

00:30:08.240 received anonymous roses,

00:30:10.560 flowers,

00:30:11.220 delivered to her house

00:30:12.180 for years.

00:30:14.060 She passed away in 1973,

00:30:15.540 and it's rumored

00:30:16.680 that the two brothers

00:30:17.620 attended her funeral

00:30:18.580 in disguise.

00:30:20.100 So that's pretty crazy.

00:30:22.980 But again,

00:30:24.240 we don't know

00:30:24.780 the conclusion

00:30:25.580 to this day.

00:30:26.960 We don't know,

00:30:28.380 but what,

00:30:28.960 I think we can conclude,

00:30:30.300 it's likely they died,

00:30:31.960 but again,

00:30:32.760 the escape

00:30:33.220 was absolutely possible

00:30:34.880 as proven

00:30:35.560 by this 31-week

00:30:36.960 pregnant woman,

00:30:38.700 twice now

00:30:39.540 at this point.

00:30:40.080 So I think

00:30:42.440 if they were still alive,

00:30:43.240 they'd be

00:30:43.780 in their 90s

00:30:45.260 now.

00:30:46.360 So I believe

00:30:47.460 the case will remain

00:30:48.300 open until they

00:30:49.240 are confirmed dead,

00:30:50.160 if they are confirmed dead,

00:30:51.320 or until they turn

00:30:52.760 99 years old.

00:30:55.220 So nobody knows

00:30:56.220 if they've made it.

00:30:57.260 The question of Clay Travis,

00:30:59.040 this is something

00:30:59.580 that he's been boasting in.

00:31:01.020 Clay thinks he could make it.

00:31:02.240 I tried to invite him

00:31:03.160 this year

00:31:03.660 to swim

00:31:04.240 with me

00:31:05.180 and with

00:31:05.580 these Navy SEALs.

00:31:06.800 Clay declined.

00:31:09.720 I don't know

00:31:10.040 if he declined.

00:31:10.640 I think he was busy

00:31:11.420 with other stuff going on.

00:31:12.920 Do I think

00:31:13.620 Clay Travis

00:31:14.400 could escape Alcatraz?

00:31:16.580 No.

00:31:17.660 No, I don't.

00:31:18.860 I think it takes

00:31:19.580 a certain level

00:31:21.220 of skill

00:31:23.080 to be able to,

00:31:25.360 again,

00:31:25.840 conquer not just

00:31:26.540 the cold,

00:31:27.300 the current,

00:31:28.180 the waves

00:31:28.660 that are pulling you

00:31:29.420 one direction,

00:31:30.380 waves are hitting you

00:31:31.140 another direction,

00:31:32.020 and I just don't think

00:31:33.620 Clay Travis has that.

00:31:35.280 Could he?

00:31:35.760 If he started training,

00:31:37.740 sure,

00:31:38.680 maybe.

00:31:39.520 If a water wing company

00:31:41.560 sponsored his show,

00:31:43.280 his radio show,

00:31:44.340 I think he can make it.

00:31:45.820 But as it stands now,

00:31:46.880 I don't know, Clay.

00:31:47.640 He says he's going

00:31:48.300 to do it next year.

00:31:49.220 I'm going to hold him

00:31:50.020 to that

00:31:50.440 because I think

00:31:52.000 this should be like,

00:31:53.600 you know,

00:31:53.780 we should do like

00:31:54.200 a charity event

00:31:54.900 surrounding this.

00:31:56.260 The winner gets to,

00:31:58.280 or I guess the loser

00:31:59.300 should have to put up money

00:32:00.340 to the charity

00:32:01.620 of the other person's choosing.

00:32:03.800 So Clay,

00:32:04.700 Clay's made bets before,

00:32:05.640 about,

00:32:06.000 you know,

00:32:07.520 high school boys

00:32:08.820 basketball players.

00:32:10.820 If they could beat

00:32:11.820 one WNBA team 0.91

00:32:13.640 in a game,

00:32:15.280 $100,000.

00:32:16.640 If any man

00:32:17.640 who would go on

00:32:18.440 to play in the WNBA,

00:32:19.500 just unironically,

00:32:20.320 like as a man

00:32:20.940 declare himself

00:32:21.460 to be a woman

00:32:21.920 to play in the WNBA,

00:32:23.560 he'd win a certain

00:32:24.300 amount of money.

00:32:24.780 So Clay likes

00:32:25.260 making these bets.

00:32:26.060 So consider this

00:32:27.520 my,

00:32:28.640 my,

00:32:29.300 my wager to Clay.

00:32:31.480 a charity event

00:32:33.260 swimming Alcatraz.

00:32:34.660 I don't think

00:32:35.620 Clay Travis

00:32:36.300 could make it,

00:32:37.440 but we will see

00:32:38.380 next year.
