How have you travelled across the sea? By boat? By plane? How about by bathtub?

Well, YouTuber Max Fosh has! He travelled from Cornwall, all the way across the Celtic Sea, to the Isles of Scilly.

Max said he wanted to complete the challenge "because no one has ever done it before" and because he had a spare bath.

He had also found a drawing that he made at the age of six, of him sailing around in a bath and thought "let's make little Max's dreams come true"!

Max had a safety team following him for the trip to make sure he was safe

Max called his tub 'Billy the Bathtub Boat', and together they set off at 07:30 in the morning from Sennen Cove in Cornwall, and almost nine hours later, arrived at Hugh Town, St Mary's.

Max says the journey was fun but that his back is now quite sore, so he didn't fancy travelling back to Cornwall in the tub.

Instead, he gifted Billy to a 10 year-old-boy who lives on the island.

Whilst the whole challenge looks very 'Scilly', Max took safety precautions and says he was "very well supported" with a safety boat and crew with him on the journey.

The adventure took place last week, with a number of islanders greeting Max at the finish line.

What's the strangest form of transport you've ever taken? Would you cross the sea in a bath?
