Now this is a surprising story worth mentioning in Nexbetsports NFL.
There are some things in life that you cannot imagine that will happen. You can’t tell when you will fall in love, when you will have your first kiss. You cannot tell if your point will decide a match, but most certainly you cannot tell if you will be part of a boat accident in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. That’s what happened to Rob Konrad after he decided to go fishing alone in the Atlantic Ocean. These trips that he did there were not so rare, he would often go fishing and jump in the Ocean a few times for a refreshing swim. But this time he did something not so smart, and not that he should brag about.
Let’s see what he has done and how he has embarrassed himself in front of the public.
He left the boat on Auto pilot and forgot to bring down the stairs that are needed for you to get on the boat, jumped in the water and he didn’t have a way to get back on the boat. The autopilot continued to move forward, and Rob Konrad was unable to catch the boat. With the boat getting further and further away from him he decided to swim back to the shore, about 9 miles or about 14.5 kilometers to the shore.
The Miami Dolphins fullback that played for them from 1999 to 2004 still had the physical and mental strength to be able to swim that much to a shore. The power that he had back when he was a professional NFL player seemed to help him live another day. The experts say that he was in the cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean for around 10 hours, and as he says he was swimming for around 12 hours, before finally managing to reach the Palm Beach by the Country Sheriff’s Office somewhere around 5 in the morning on Wednesday.
The popular Miami Dolphins ex-player played 82 games for the NFL team of which 57 were as a starter. He retired from professional career in 2005, but still has what it takes to swim 12 hours in cold water.
His friends realized that he was gone after not showing up to the evening dinner that he had planned with them, and they knew that he was out in the ocean and immediately told the police. The coast guard police sent a helicopter to search for Rob Konrad, and they found him after he reported where he is, where we mentioned earlier on the Palm Beach.
He was held in the hospital for a few hours to treat hypothermia and was released immediately after that. He only explained the whole story in a few words to the media, refusing to answer the questions.
Ang Dating Dolphins Player ay Nagkuwento ng 16-Oras na Paglangoy para sa kanyang Kaligtasan
PLANTATION, Fla. — Ang dating NFL Dolphins fullback na si Rob Konrad ay pumasok sa silid noong Lunes na may pag-aalinlangan sa kanyang paglalakad at nangangailangan ng tulong sa pag-akyat sa podium upang pag-usapan ang kanyang hindi malamang na 16 na oras na paglangoy sa pampang.
Humigop siya mula sa isang bote ng tubig, nagre-rehydrate pa rin apat na araw pagkatapos ng episode. Umupo ang kanyang asawa sa kanyang gilid at hinimas ang kanyang binti bilang suporta. Nangingilid ang mga luha sa kanilang mga mata habang nagsasalita siya.
“Masaya akong narito,” panimula ni Konrad na may mapait na ngiti.
“Dapat wala ako dito,” sabi niya maya-maya, basag ang boses.
Ang pagtakas ng 38-taong-gulang na si Konrad ay isang patunay ng paghahangad at world-class na athleticism.
“Ito ay isang hindi kapani-paniwalang kuwento,” sabi ng endurance swimmer na si Diana Nyad. “Ang pagkuha ng kanyang buhay sa kanyang mga kamay at pagpapasya na ililigtas niya ang kanyang sarili.”
Si Konrad, na naglaro para sa Miami Dolphins mula 1999 hanggang 2004, ay nasa paligid ng mga bangka mula noong kanyang pagkabata sa North Shore ng Boston. Kaya alam niya kung ano ang ibig sabihin nang mahulog siya sa kanyang 31-foot Grady-White habang nangingisda nang mag-isa siyam na milya mula sa lupa.
“Ang bangungot ng isang boater,” sabi niya.
Lumangoy siya sa Palm Beach, na sumasaklaw sa layo na 27 milya bago nag-doorbell ng isang tahanan sa karagatan para sa tulong noong 4:30 a.m. Huwebes.
Ang mga detalye ng kanyang kaligtasan ay mahirap paniwalaan, siya at ang kanyang asawa, si Tammy Konrad, ay sumang-ayon.
“Isang himala na nakauwi siya,” sabi niya.
Sinabi ni Rob Konrad na isinasakay niya ang kanyang bangka para sa pagseserbisyo noong Miyerkules at nagpasyang mangisda sa daan. Nakahuli siya ng isda at inaalagaan ang pamalo nang tumama ang isang malaking alon, na nagpabalik-balik sa kanya.

Ang bangka ay nasa autopilot at patungo sa silangan; walang ibang nakita. Walang suot na life preserver si Konrad. 12:30 p.m.
“Napagtanto ko na ako ay nasa ilang tunay na problema,” sabi niya.
Nagpasya si Konrad na lumangoy patungo sa dalampasigan, bagama’t naisip niya na ang biyahe ay aabutin ng higit sa 10 oras, at natakot siyang sumuko sa hypothermia o cramp pagkatapos ng dalawa o tatlong oras. Ang temperatura ng karagatan ay nasa 70s — malayo sa malamig, ngunit mas malamig kaysa sa temperatura ng kanyang katawan.
Hinubad niya ang kanyang shirt at nagsimulang magpalit-palit ng breaststroke at backstroke.
Sinabi ni Konrad na nakagat siya “ng isang buong grupo ng mga bagay-bagay.” Umikot ang isang pating bago sumabay. “Mayroong maraming bagay na kumikinang sa gabi, marahil ilang dikya,” sabi niya.
Nakikita rin niya ang mga ilaw sa baybayin at pumili ng mga landmark. Sa kanyang pagod, nagkaroon siya ng emosyonal na lakas.
Konklusyon
Talagang nakakamangha ang ginawa ng dating man lalaro ng NFL Sports Betting na si Rob Konrad. Kung wala siyang lakas ng loob ay talagang maaring hindi na siya nahanap at naka ligtas sa kanyang pinaroroonan. Mas pinili niyang manalig at mag tiwala par siya ay maka ligtas.
