33 million times, Luke even showed where he and his boat are in the ocean.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">\u201cIt is month one, day 31 of sailing across the Pacific Ocean alone,\u201d he said in the video.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">He continued: \u201cI\u2019m in the doldroms, I\u2019m stuck here in the doldrums and there is no wind.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">\u201cFor reference, I am right about as far away from land you can be on the planet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">In what would should be a pretty terrifying realisation, Luke admitted he was appreciative of the experience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text_text__nEn66\">He added: \u201cIt is incredibly disorientating to be out on a paddleboard with absolutely nothing on the horizon except like a
