British Adventurer Completes 28-Year, 50,000 km Walk Around the World
Karl Bushby, a 57-year-old British adventurer and former paratrooper, has completed a 28-year journey walking nearly 50,000 km around the world. Starting in 1998 from Chile, he vowed not to use transportation or return to the UK until finishing. He completed the final leg by swimming across the English Channel, arriving at Shakespeare Beach near Dover. Bushby was welcomed by family and friends, and filmmaker Werner Herzog is documenting his expedition in a film titled "Walk of Life."
