"Man in inflatable bubble rescued of the coast of Florida" Julian Smith
Ultra marathoner Reza Baluchi was rescued saturday morning off the coast of florida alone in an inflaitble floating bubble. Baluchi was supposedly attempting to run from Florida to Bermuda. He has a goal to run over 190 countries to support world peace. Baluchi was rescued by a coast guard. The coast guard first heard about him after receiving a report about a confused man in a bubble of the coast of Miami asking for directions to Bermuda. Reports say that Baluchi had with him protein bars, bottled water, a GPS, and a satellite phone. The Coast Guard recommended that Baluchi stop his journey because he didn't have enough supplies but Baluchi ignored him. Needless to say Baluchi did not make it to Bermuda. On Saturday Morning the Exhausted Baluchi activated his personal locating beacon and was soon rescued.
