My dad can kick your dad's ass

[Zerostar]

I've moved out of my house, and now that I'm not always at my parent's place, every time I go back learning about the next thing my dad did really emphasizes how he probably has more balls than anyone I know.

My dad does open-water swimming. He swims around Manhattan every year (ew), he swam the Strait of Gibraltar, and he has gone swimming with the Polar Bears (famous Coney Island swimming group that goes out for a group swim every year on New Years in freezing cold waters). Back in February, there was a period of time where I wasn't entirely sure whether he was alive or dead as I was waiting for news from Chile (where my family is from), as he decided to swim the Strait of Magellan. It's at the southern tip of South America, and is a 2 mile swim in arctic waters with a strange meteorological phenomenon called the williwaw, where strong arctic forces cause mini whirlpools that have been known to down ships. Of course, my dad successfully swam it. Prior to him and his group going to swim it, only 2 people ever completed the strait.

Last I visited home, I was asking him about the trapeze went (he went on a trapeze the week before as an impromptu thing), and he was mentioning how he wants to swim from Alaska to Russia. He's totally nuts if he tries it (he probably will). Still, it's fairly impressive for a man who is 51.

You're right. That IS impressive. And I'm proud of your dad.
But I think "My Dad Can Kick Your Dad's Ass" is a very bold statement ; )

I thought you were going to talk about how your dad's a super awesome ring fighter who kills and eats his opponents for dinner.

Obviously I was wrong, but all that swimming is pretty impressive.

My dad is over 2 metres tall and is a muscly man.
(lolwut?)
Please tell me you know what a metre is....

I wanna be the first to say it: Who gives a shit?
When you turn 6 years old, you stop bragging about this shit.

[MyGuitarSticks]

My dad can shoot your dad until you can't recognize him.

Also, I seriously thought this was going to be a troll thread.

Who gives a shit about your dad?

[Funzo123]

That is very.. Good.

Impressive that he survived those whirlpools though!
