“If it’s making people laugh, it’s a good thing,” Holt says about the popularity of the video.
When Scott Holt was running late for a meeting, he needed a solution to get there fast!
Needing to get across the Hudson River to New York City, you might think he hopped in a car or hailed a cab — neither would have gotten him there fast enough.
Instead, Holt did what anyone (probably just him) would do — he put on his suit, grabbed his paddle board and started paddling.
“Boats’ wakes were coming at me from different angles and the current was quick closer to Manhattan,” Holt recalled.
Holt ended up making it to his meeting on time and his journey took him about 30 minutes. Although he nearly fell off several times, he made it onto land without getting soaked.
