00:00 When working from home, we all want to be close to home.
00:05 Close to home means that we don't have to spend too much time on transportation.
00:11 Especially when you are working from home,
00:14 whether you are on the road or on the highway,
00:16 you are stuck in traffic, especially when you live in a big city.
00:18 The difference is that you are stuck in traffic,
00:21 or you are just a little bit stuck in traffic.
00:25 Sometimes it's really impressive that
00:27 life is just a little bit stuck in traffic.
00:30 In Turkey, a pastry chef suddenly thought of
00:34 another way to avoid traffic jam.
00:37 He also tested it himself,
00:39 proving that it really saves time.
00:42 Oh, this pastry chef who lives in the east bank of Istanbul, Turkey,
00:47 has to drive to the west bank of Istanbul every day to work.
00:51 And he has to pass the Eurasian Bridge every day.
00:54 He has to drive to work every day,
00:57 which is really stressful.
01:00 His commute time is almost an hour every day.
01:04 The daily life of a traffic jam
01:07 is really hard for the pastry chef.
01:10 One day, he decided to jump off the bridge
01:14 and swim to work.
01:19 Swim across the sea.
01:21 It seems that the pastry chef doesn't want to be stuck in traffic.
01:26 He has the courage to swim across the sea.
01:28 After all, without a little bit of kung fu and courage,
01:31 I'm afraid he can't even swim to the other side.
01:34 After his actual test,
01:36 he crossed the Bosporus Strait by swimming.
01:40 It only took him 20 minutes to get there.
01:41 Compared to his original driving time,
01:43 it saved him 60% of the time,
01:46 more than half the time.
01:48 So he was determined to start.
01:50 Swimming across the Eurasian Bridge every day.
01:55 Not only can it shorten his commute time,
01:58 but it can also take the opportunity to exercise.
02:00 It's a win-win for him.
02:01 Although it's a win-win method,
02:04 the pastry chef also said that
02:05 when he first started this plan to swim across the sea to work,
02:11 his family was very opposed.
02:13 They thought it was very dangerous.
02:15 His two daughters even hoped he could give up this idea.
02:19 But the pastry chef said that
02:21 he was not the only worker who swam to work.
02:25 He actually had a lot of partners.
02:27 In order to cross the sea safely,
02:30 they would confirm the ship's timetable in advance
02:34 to avoid accidents,
02:37 avoidance and collision with the ship during the process of swimming.
02:40 At the same time,
02:41 there would be a partner who was responsible for collecting everyone's clothing and tools every day.
02:46 He would drive the car to the other side of the sea.
02:50 After all, you can't bring anything with you when you swim.
02:53 You still need someone to deliver these things to the destination without water.
02:57 As the news of swimming avoiding the car cage broke out,
03:01 and he could arrive safely every day,
03:04 the daughter of the pastry chef slowly accepted it.
03:07 She even said that
03:09 her father was the one who swam to work.
03:11 She was very proud.
