A Perth man is still missing this morning after apparently attempting to swim to Rottnest last night.
Authorities are unsure if he actually left for Rottnest and are continuing to check the surrounding dunes in case he returned from the ocean, walked along the coast and simply fell asleep.
Looks like he may have had some sort of argument with his wife who apparently spent four hours looking for him along the beach.
What would possess a man to just start swimming towards Rottnest - at night?
I've done some crazy things after arguing with my missus, but nothing quite that ambitious!
