Who was the first man to swim across the Atlantic Ocean without a kick board?
Thomas Burgess
Matthew Webb
Benoît Lecomte
Jean Boiteux
During his 73 days long journey, he was accompanied by a sailboat that had an electromagnetic field to ward off sharks. He was followed by a great white shark for 5 days. He also encountered sea turtles, dolphins, and jellyfish. He did this to raise money for cancer research as a tribute to his father.
