COSTELLO: Can I just say Diana Nyad is amazing? For the fifth time she's trying to swim from Cuba to Florida without a shark cage. And guess what, she has almost accomplished that feat. She's now about five miles from shore. Nyad's team posted these pictures on her Web site early this morning. The caption reads: "True story: cruise ships make way for Diana Nyad". But here's more exciting news. John Zarrella is in Key West and we can actually see her team from shore now. This is amazing.</s>ZARRELLA: Yes. We think so, Carol. People that have been pretty close to Diana Nyad's team have said that indeed those boats we see behind us. They are in the distance -- way in the distance so they're tough to see. It's a small flotilla of boats with doctors on boards and her handlers on those vessels as well making their way ever so slowly. Now we know, Carol, from earlier on today that she was taking frequent breaks -- she was going less than a mile an hour. And they said that she had swallowed a lot of salt water. Doctors were reporting earlier today that her tongue and her lips were swollen. A little bit of concern then about her airway but they are pressing on. And that may well be their flotilla out there closing in. We expect her to land somewhere here along Smathers Beach perhaps in the next four hours or so. It's hard to tell. All depends on just how quickly she's making headway -- Carol.</s>COSTELLO: Quickly, because I don't have much time, what's her secret to success this time? It's the fifth time.</s>ZARRELLA: those goggles, they're saying, those goggles that were especially made to keep the jellyfish from stinging her which is what cost her the last time she made the attempt.</s>COSTELLO: Understand. John Zarrella, thank you so much. And thanks for joining me today on this Labor Day. I'm Carol Costello. "LEGAL VIEW" with John Berman filling in, starts now.
