Sometimes the records that are set can amaze anyone because they are actually quite unusual.
For example, few people would come up with the idea of swimming around the United Kingdom.
Not everyone even thinks that such an idea is realistic, since the risk of danger is high. However, such a record was recorded by representatives of the Guinness Book of Records. Several years ago, a daredevil from Great Britain was able to implement this unusual idea.
How long did it take the swimmer to do this?
It is known that the coast of Great Britain cannot be called "friendly": it is not the most comfortable place for swimming. However, this did not stop the Briton.
In total, the man swam more than three thousand kilometers.
He did not go ashore during his swim. In total, it took the record holder 157 days to complete his undertaking.
In order to ensure the swimmer's rest during the night, and also to come to his aid if necessary, an escort set out with the Briton.
The sailor was steering the catamaran.
