Matthieu Bonne Sets New World Record for Longest Distance Swam in Greece despite Challenging Conditions

Bonne started his world record attempt on Thursday, a day later than planned due to strong winds and high waves in the Bay of Corinth in Greece. “Despite his worn-out body, Matthieu continued to laugh and continue,” says his entourage.

The previous record was held by Neil Agius, an Olympic swimmer from Malta who covered 125.7 kilometers. Bonne’s world record could only be homologated if he actually set foot on land. As a result, he had to cover three kilometers more than planned.
