Over 700 go naked, attempt world
record for the largest nude ocean swim
(PHOTOS)
Hundreds of people stripped naked and flocked to the Tasman
Sea in what has been billed as the largest nude ocean swim
on record.
More than 700 people turned out to protest against body image
conformity on Sunday – and to enjoy a good swim in the baking heat in
Sydney, Australia.
It was the second Sydney Skinny, which was attended by 750 people last
year and raises money for Australia’s National Parks.
Starting at 8am, the revellers deposited their clothes on the beach before
swimming 900 metres around the diamond-shaped Middle Head island by
Sydney’s coast.
Some took to the waves excitedly with messages painted on their
behinds, while some slipped out of their towels at the very last minute.
Speaking ahead of the event, one skinny dipper said: ‘We are born naked.
who cares who sees your body – be naked with nature for a great cause.
The more the merrier…’
Another wrote on the online event page: ‘I’m quite shy and I have never
swam naked before. But there is no embarrassment – it will be great fun.’
After the event, the bathers donned their clothes and headed to a festival
arena, where there was live music to celebrate their feat.
