Fiann Paul

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fiann Paul (2018)

Fiann Paul (born 1980 in Poland ) is an Icelandic ocean rower , polar explorer, artist and speaker. He is the researcher who has broken the most records in the world and holds the most performance-related Guinness world records ever in any sport discipline (41 total / 33 of which performance-related), followed by Roger Federer (max. 29/25, currently 30/18) and Michael Phelps (max. 26/24, currently 23/20).

Known as the fastest ocean rower (2016) and the one with the most broken records (2017), as of 2020 he has been the first and only to reach the Ocean Explorers Grand Slam (crossing the five oceans in a muscle-powered boat on the open sea ). In comparison, around 50 people have made it to the Explorers Grand Slam in the countryside.

Fiann received many of the highest awards in the history of ocean rowing, including the highest number of Guinness "World's First" titles (14 in total since 2020, 5 more than Reinhold Messner's ). These awards are also known as "First Man in of history "and are awarded by Guinness in particular for explorations such as" first person to row five oceans "," first person to hold the running speed records on all four oceans ", and other titles as the first person to row some of the rowed through extremely large bodies of water in both polar regions .

He was the captain of the record-breaking expedition, batsman for the fastest boat in ocean rowing history, and batsman for the boat with the record-breaking speed of any ocean. Since 2020 he has also been the captain of the only three successful muscle-powered pioneer expeditions on the open sea in both polar regions.

His achievements were instrumental in making Iceland the country with the highest number of Guinness Sports world records per capita. In 2018, his records are 68% of the Icelandic Guinness Sport world records.

Furthermore, Fiann is also active in the fields of art and psychology, and has attracted attention through the unique combination of different fields of activity.

Sports

Fiann has crossed all three oceans in crew rowing boats without aids, setting the record for the highest overall speed for both the Atlantic , Indian , Pacific and Arctic Oceans.

Fiann was introduced to ocean rowing in 2007 while working for a charity that trained athletes in Africa. In 2011 Fiann broke the ocean rowing record, the Atlantic Ocean Winds I.

In 2014, he became the first athlete to hold the overall speed record for the fastest rowing through two oceans (Atlantic and Indian Ocean).

In 2016 he became the only rower ever to hit all 3 total speed records (Atlantic, Indian Ocean, Pacific). For this achievement he was recognized by Guinness World Records with the title “ The first person to hold the total speed records for rowing all 3 oceans at the same time, ” one of the highest honors in the history of ocean rowing.

In 2017, he rowed the Arctic Ocean and broke the total speed record for the Arctic Ocean.

In 2019 Fiann Paul led the first muscle-powered crossing (by rowing) over the Drake Strait , and the first ever muscle-powered expedition on the Southern Ocean. This was achieved on December 25, 2019, and he was the first and only (as of 2020) to reach the Ocean Explorers Grand Slam : He made crossings in a muscle-powered boat on the open sea on each of the five oceans. He also acted as a batsman on the expedition.

Further information

Measured by the number of record attempts and successful executions, it achieved the highest success rate in the history of ocean rowing. During ocean rowing, he was always in the position of the batsman, who dictated the speed of the boat. Fiann's physical exertion in ocean rowing has been compared to doing approximately 300 consecutive marathons . In an interview with the Washington Times, he mentioned that his resting heart rate during the record crossings was 95 beats per minute, which is twice the normal heart rate. His world record-breaking achievement was ranked by Grapevine magazine as one of the seven most notable triumphs in Icelandic sport. In this context, he was suspected of association with Ægir . He is currently known as one of the world's most complete rowers.

Pioneering and exploration

In 2017 Fiann acted as the captain, batsman and head of the Polar Row project, the expedition in which most records in history were set (11 Guinness world records) using only muscle power. Polar Row was exposed to a wide variety of wind conditions and did not use any sails, machines or any other aids except muscle power. The Polar Row consisted of 2 teams, Polar Row I and Polar Row II. In total, the teams covered 1250 nautical miles, measured in a straight line through the Arctic Ocean (1440 miles or 2316 km) and were the pioneers of new ocean routes from Tromsø to Longyearbyen , from Longyearbyen to the Arctic Ice Shelf (79 ° 55'500N) and from the ice shelf to Jan Mayen .

Open waters of the Antarctic

"The Impossible Row"

2019 was long fiann captain of 530 nautical miles, first driven by muscle power to cross the Drake Street and the first Beruderung the Southern Ocean, the waters of Ernest Shackleton was designated biographer Alfred Lansing as the most dreaded stretch of sea in the world.

history

The "Antarctic Row", the project of the rowing route through the Antarctic, was conceived in April 2017. After completing the second rowing route through the Arctic, "Polar Row II" in August 2017, Fiann revealed in an interview with the New York Times that he was planning to row an even more difficult route. First he had to pay a considerable sum of money 18 months before the said expedition in order to secure the auxiliary ship, which is required in the Antarctic Treaty and in the IAATO , in order to obtain a departure permit in the first place. The law of the sea stipulates that small, muscle-powered boats and simple sailing boats must be accompanied by an auxiliary ship when sailing in open waters within the limits of the Southern Ocean. Fiann mentioned that he had given all of his savings for it.

In September 2017, Fiann recruited the first team members Andrew Towne and Jamie Douglas-Hamilton. The route was originally planned for December 2018, but has been postponed due to the lack of availability of the auxiliary ship. In January 2019, Fiann recruited Cameron Bellamy and John Petersen, and completed the two-year recruitment process for the team in April 2019 with the last member, Colin O'Brady, who joined the team as Fiann's first mate with no previous rowing or ocean rowing experience . Colin's participation in the expedition was closely followed by the Discovery Channel with cameras and published as a series under "The Impossible Row". a. was co-produced by Colin O'Brady himself.

With the support of world-class manufacturers, Fiann designed bespoke, hybrid performance / safety suits specifically designed and tailored for rowing movements. These custom-made drysuits offered more flexibility when rowing than traditional safety suits , which tend to restrict movement and rub the skin sore. The suits were individually made to measure for each team member after 25 different measurements.
The Yámana , who have lived in the Cape Horn region for 10,000 years, have circled the Horn alone in simple, self-made paddle boats at the age of 12. Canoeing is part of their traditional hunter-gatherer lifestyle. From the middle of the 20th century, the Chilean government banned these boat trips because they were "too dangerous".

Shortly before the team left South America, a Chilean air force C-130 crashed over the Drakestrasse. The search area included the planned rowing route. As captain, Fiann had to decide how the 150 x 150 mile exclusion zone announced by the Chilean Navy could be avoided. His project had to undergo a one-day thorough examination in Cape Horn, which was carried out by naval officials. A logical approach would have been to lay the route westwards along the search area, which was also recommended by the consultants, since the wind and waves tend to move eastwards as long as the current moves eastwards, which in turn also increases the search area with a high probability to the east. For this very reason, seafarers who cross the Drake Strait also generally choose to compensate westward. Fiann, however, listened to his gut instinct, contradicted the logic and decided in spite of everything for an eastern route. It turned out to be the right decision, as the military promptly shifted their search in the opposite direction. Crew member Jamie Douglas-Hamilton emphasized that this decision was crucial to their success.

The Abercrombie & Kents Luxury Expedition Cruise liner took a detour from its route to cheer Fiann on his efforts. This is the same cruise line that Fiann signed as a special guest lecturer alongside lecturers like Lech Walesa in the summer of 2020 .

In total, the rowing route lasted 12 days, 1 hour and 45 minutes and broke several Guinness world records. The team experienced sub-zero temperatures , snow and hail, as well as gigantic icebergs that only exist in Antarctica. The sea ​​anchor was used five times due to rough seas. Apart from the days at sea anchor, a considerable amount of kilometers was achieved against the wind, which distinguishes the routes by muscle power from the trade wind routes . Craig Glenday, Editor-in-Chief of Guinness World Records, personally congratulated Captain Fiann Paul, commenting:

"This rowing route is one of the most significant muscle-powered adventures ever undertaken."

When he arrived in Antarctica, Fiann recited the poem The Great Sea Song by the Canadian Inuit poet Uvavnuk, cousin of Aua. On Christmas Day, an article about Fiann's performance was published in an Icelandic newspaper with the title: “Celebrating Christmas with Ægir”. The Icelandic President Guðni Th. Jóhannesson personally congratulated Fiann Paul. Since 2020 Fiann has been the captain of the only three successful, muscle-powered pioneer expeditions in the open waters of both polar regions. Although fiann many of the most difficult seas in the world rowed, not a single boat under his command capsized .

The expedition coincided with two major anniversaries, with the first sighting of the Antarctic continent through Bellingshausen exactly 200 winters ago and with Magellan's voyage 500 years ago. Fiann said that before this expedition, Antarctica was a Terra Australis Incognita for muscle-powered endeavors, just as it was for cartographers off Bellingshausen.

As an artist, Fiann Paul has hosted numerous Icelandic and international exhibitions, including some large open-air art installations . His work focuses on issues such as breastfeeding , indigenous peoples , children's rights and animal rights .

He was one of two creators of Dialog , an open-air art installation in which two main streets in the Icelandic capital were covered with photographs of Icelandic children (2008). He was also the organizer of the See It project , an outdoor installation on the facade of Tryggvagata Street in downtown Reykjavik (2011), which aimed to raise awareness of breastfeeding .

As an artist, he also supported the preservation of an endangered breed of horse native to the Faroe Islands . As a photographer, he documented many of his expeditions.

Charity and other activities

In 2011 Fiann Paul and Natalie Caroline founded the Fiann Paul Foundation , through which a primary school was established in the Himalayas in 2013. 150 students are taught in the school every year. The project illustrates two of his main academic interests: architecture and education. Fiann has a Masters in both disciplines. In addition to his regular education, Fiann Paul spent two years in the Himalayas and one and a half years in the remote parts of Greenland . He regards this time as a groundbreaking phase in his life.

Fiann Paul is one of two Icelandic members of the US-based international and multidisciplinary professional society: The Explorers Club. He carried the flag of the Explorers Club along Polar Row to Svalbard, on the Arctic Ice Shelf and to Jan Mayen.

He is currently (as of 2017) doing postgraduate studies in depth psychology. He is undergoing training as a Jungian analyst at the CG Jung Institute in Zurich. His main focus in the field of analytical psychology is on the archetypes of masculinity. He has given lectures, motivational speeches and workshops for young people around the world.

Remarks

  1. Performance-related records do not include age, salary or any other criteria that are not related to performance. A higher number of Guinness records is held by Ashrita Furman, for example, who claims records in different fields but does not compete in a single sport.
  2. This number refers to the days he spent on the ocean; the training units resembled a three-quarter marathon (30 km) and continued to include strength training.
  3. The speed record in ocean rowing stands for the fastest crossing regardless of additional criteria, such as the number and type of crew, class of boat, type of hull, race, exact departure and arrival locations, departure dates and so on. The speed record is calculated and compared. The distance that is calculated for the speed record is the distance as the crow flies between the point of departure and arrival, while the currently rowed distance and the average speed are typically significantly higher.
