Undertake one of humanity's most extreme endurance challenges by swimming across straits like Gibraltar, the English Channel, or Bering Strait. This requires years of cold-water training, support boats, legal permits, and mental fortitude to overcome hypothermia, jellyfish, and exhaustion during swims lasting 10+ hours.
