PILLAGE…5..4..3..2..1…DON’T PILLAGE

That darn cat!

Pablo’s feat was pretty impressive, but apparently he is not the current world record holder for this.

Maarten van der Weijden broke Pablo’s record on 30 December 2023 with a 45 hour continuous swim.

Those huge equine statues probably give real horses the heebie-jeebies.

I hope I do! I was born there.

Aarhus sounds like they would rune everything. Perhaps they’ll rune the day.

“More than 1.5 miles of steel” is a rather silly statement if you think about it; steel what?

Wonder if Pablo achieved shrinkage? And 36 hours nonstop, where did he pee? Were there any witnesses to this feat? There are just so many questions

How big is an endless pool?

Aarhus has a town hall crew with a good sense of humor!

I’ll bet that cat is smart enough to figure out the extra security measures.

Vikings were great warriors, but they ain’t never won a Super Bowl !!

Pablo must have left quite a yellow trail behind him

“1.5 miles of steel” is meaningless without telling us the form of the steel. Is this 1.5 miles of steel wire? girders? what size girders? Or are they steel plates? How thick are the plates? Maybe rebar? We need more context

Aarhus is a very very very fine hus

Ha, ha – I like the cat security door cartoon!

1.5 miles of steel what? Wire? Sheet? Ingots? What??

All that swimming got him nowhere.

Aarhus is my home town. I left there in 1956.
