Trans-Atlantic rowers 'see' Harry Potter's enemy Voldemort


A ROWER has told how visions of 'He Who Shall Not Be Named' appeared on her boat during an epic trans-Atlantic journey.
Sleep deprivation and exhaustion prompted a flurry of Hogwarts hallucinations for Georgie Leech and her teammates when they took part in the Talisker Whiskey Atlantic Challenge.
She said: “We’d been listening to the talking book of Harry Potter and started to see faces everywhere, including Voldemort in the middle of the compass.
“We were flying at the start, only taking ten minutes rest, to get ahead, but this did mean we were exhausted and started hallucinating.”
Georgie, of Cotherstone, in County Durham, joined Flo Ward and Hannah Walton for the 3,000 mile row from La Gomera, in the Canary Islands, to English Harbour, Antigua.
