Reza Baluchi was spotted in a 'manifestly unsafe' vessel, which resembled a hamster wheel, around 70 miles from the east coast of the United States. He refused to come off and had threatened to blow himself up, in what turned out to be a hoax.
A Florida man who tried to run across the Atlantic Ocean to London using a makeshift hamster wheel has been arrested.
According to court documents, the USCG judged the makeshift boat was"manifestly unsafe" and kept afloat by buoys and wiring. But Mr Baluchi refused to step off the vessel for three days until officers managed to safely extract him and bring him back to shore two days later, court papers state.
