Reading
The world's best swimmer
Abu-Heif was one of the best Egyptian athletes ever. In 2001, he won a prize as the best swimmer of the 20th century.
Abdel-Latif Abu-Heif was born in 1929 in the Anfoushi area of Alexandria. His father was a primary school teacher and Abu-Heif was the tenth of twelve sons in the family. As a boy, he spent a lot of his time swimming in the sea. At the age of ten, he won the Egyptian primary school swimming championship. After this, he moved to Cairo and trained at al-Ahli Club.
In 1951, Abu-Heif became internationally famous when he swam across the English Channel. In 1953, he crossed the Channel again. This time he broke the record by crossing in 13 hours and 45 minutes. When he returned to Egypt, the people welcomed him as a national hero.
Abu-Heif continued to train for seven hours a day and to swim in long-distance races all over the world. In 1963, in Toronto, he beat Harry William, one of the greatest swimmers in the world. In the same year, he won the Montreal swimming race after he swam for 30 hours without a break. All the other swimmers had given up because they were exhausted. Egypt was so proud of its world famous swimmer that they gave his name to a beach at al-Anfoushi.
In 1966, Abu-Heif decided to retire from swimming. However, President Nasser asked him to think again. So Abu-Heif continued to swim and win prizes until 1975, when he finally retired at the age of 46.
Abu-Heif was also famous for his generosity. He gave his prize money for swimming the English Channel to the family of a British swimmer who had drowned while he was crossing the Channel. He also gave money to the family of a French swimmer who injured his back during a race in France. Abu-Heif died in April 2008.
As a world-famous swimmer and Egypt's greatest athlete of all time, Abu-Heif was visited by kings and other important people. His ability as a swimmer was so incredible that doctors and scientists came to Egypt to study him because they wanted to know what made him such a powerful swimmer.
For many years, Abu-Heif was not seen on television or read about in newspapers. In 2006, at the age of 79, he went into hospital because he had a weak heart. When he died in April 2008, it was not important news. For older people, Abu-Heif was Egypt's greatest sporting hero, but some younger people do not even know his name.
"Crocodile of the Nile" breaks record crossing Channel
Yesterday, Abdel-Lalif Abu-Heif, 22, from Alexandria in Egypt, broke the world record for swimming across the English Channel. Abu-Heif swam the 32 kilometres between England and France in 13 hours and 45 minutes. This is the narrowest part of English Channel
The first person who swam across the Channel was Matthew Webb in 1875. His crossing took 21 hours and 45.

A few months ago, the pilot of a small plane had an unusual flight. A strong wind blew the plane sideways, and it touched the top of a tree. Both wheels of the plane were knocked off but the plane did not crash.
The pilot sent a radio message to the airport. He did not know how to land without wheels. The airport controller promised to help the pilot. He telephoned the airport firemen and told them what to do.
A fireman saw a long open lorry. It was waiting at the airport building to collect some goods. The fireman borrowed it and drove to one end of the airport runway. Then he turned round and waited for the plane to come. The airport controller sent a radio message to the pilot. He told him to land on top of the lorry. The fireman drove quickly along the runway and the pilot flew down to land. Luckily, he managed to land on the lorry.
