About this episode

Marathon swimming isn't for the faint hearted, let alone when there's 5500 crocodiles in the same body of water. But for Andy Donaldson, the challenge was worth the pain and risk. We chat to the Australian-Scottish world record holder about overcoming fear, the mental battles of long distance swimming and why he chose the Kimberley in Western Australia for this epic feat.

Featured: Andy Donaldson, marathon swimmer.
