I have a fear of water, believe it or not. To put a wire 12 feet over a swimming pool frightens me. I don’t like water. — Philippe Petit, French high-wire artist
I realize swimming is great exercise, beneficial for building endurance, toning muscles, and maintaining a healthy weight.
But I’m totally with Philippe Petit here — I’m afraid of the water, so I don’t enjoy swimming and frankly, can’t ever see that changing.
Unless I’m forced into a pool to do something like physical therapy … maybe.
