We were sad to hear over the break that adventurers Omar Nour and Omar Samra had to cut their epic cross Atlantic rowing challenge short on Friday, when heavy winds caused their boat to capsize. The pair struggled for 12 hours in the water under extreme conditions, until a cargo ship, primarily crewed by Egyptians came to the rescue. We are happy to report that both Nour and Samara are well and have rested after the ordeal. We commend their valiant effort, and look forward to watching the Hollywood adaptation.
