The Swim by Leighton O'Connor

Yesterday before I left St. Thomas after the Rolex Regatta I wanted to test my GoPro and see what it could do underwater. So I popped down to the rocks off of Morning Star Beach below Frenchman's Reef in St. Thomas. I ended up putting together this very weird video. Sometimes I wonder what's wrong with me. Don't you?
