The Man Who Typed to a Million
In November 1998, the man who held the Australian record for treading water achieved another personal goal. He pecked out the words “one million” to complete his 16.5 year quest to type (in words, not numbers) all the numbers between one and one million. The project, which he began in 1982 after going on disability from his job as a police typing instructor, is 19,890 pages long. His secret: Type for 20 minutes an hour, every hour.
