"Swimming for peace, friendship and clean waters" is his motto. The only man in the world who has swum 5 greatest rivers on Earth, including the Amazon, Yangtze, Mississippi, Parana and Danube, four times Guinness world record breaker and unique individual Martin Strel (Big River Man) is coming to Switzerland.

First time ever, Martin will appear in Switzerland where he is going to present his ultra marathon swimming adventures during January and February 2013 in 20 different towns. The multi-media show is called Amazonas Schwimmer and is made in co-production with Swiss Multivision company dia.ch which is run by Corrado Filipponi, a long time expedition partner of Martin Strel.

If you enjoy seeing world´s greatest adventure stories, then this show is a must for you. When you see Martin Strel live on the stage, you will hardly believe he is a swimmer. He looks more like a grizzly bear, but after his presentation you will get to understand why he has become widely known as the Big River Man.
