7:42Now PlayingA man attempting to cross open seas in a “hydropod,” for charity, has been rescued. This isn’t the first time he has tried to do this, and has already been rescued before. Ana Kasparian and Brett Erlich, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Who knew that traveling the open sea in a giant inflatable bubble could cause so much trouble?
Pretty much everyone, apparently, but that didn't stop Reza Baluchi from trying it anyway. On Sunday, U.S. Coast Guard officials were forced to rescue Baluchi after discovering that his hamster wheel — sorry, HydroPod as it's known — was "manifestly unsafe."
This isn't the first time Baluchi had to be rescued from his HydroPod. In 2014, the Coast Guard saved Baluchi after discovering him dazed near the coast of Miami, asking for directions to Bermuda.
Earlier, the Coast Guard had advised Baluchi not to go on his trip, reminding him of his previous mistakes and the dangers that lay ahead.”
