The Great Icelandic Swim with Ross Edgley
Land of the Dragon and Giant
Season 1 Episode 3 of 3
Three months in to the swim, deadly muscle collapse looms with the strain of swimming two marathons a day. From a surprise fly-by from the Royal Navy to a glimpse of the rapidly melting Vatnajökull glacier, Ross swims onwards through the tail end of a hurricane across monster seas. After 114 days and 1000 miles, the epic swim ends with a spectacular send-off from the northern lights
The Great Icelandic Swim with Ross Edgley airs on Channel 4 at 3:35 AM, Tuesday 24 February. (Subtitles, repeat, finale, series, sign language, audio description.)
