Llanwrtyd Wells, UK. 30th August, 2015. Arry beresford-Webb from Cardiff (L) & Eva walters from Wrexham dress as a unicorn for the event. The World Bogsnorkelling Championships were conceived 30 years ago in a Welsh pub by landlord Gordon Green and are held every August Bank Holiday at Waen Rhydd Bog. Using unconventional swimming strokes, participants swim two lengths of a 55 metre trench cut through a peat bog wearing snorkel and flippers. The world record was broken in 2014 by 33 year old Kirsty Johnson from Lightwater, Surrey, in a time of 1 min secs. © Graham M. Lawrence/Alamy Live
