NSData contentsOfUrl returns nil

I found several similar questions on StackOverflow but none of them solve my problem.

I am trying to get a image from a url. Here\'s how I do it:

let

I think you should, before all, create a resilient code.

if let url = NSURL(string: "http://pic3.zhimg.com/8161ba9638273e0fb1a0201789d22d8e_m.jpg")
{ 
    if let data = NSData(contentsOfURL: url) 
    {
        if let image = UIImage(data: data) 
        {
            //Do something
        }
    }
}
