79-Year-Old Norwegian Man Swims to His Own Wedding, Like a Boss | Mashable News

Trygve Bernhardsen from Norway, 79, wouldn’t get married unless he could swim to the ceremony. So that's exactly what he did.

"He will not marry me, unless he can swim up to this place, here at the lighthouse, because this is where he wants to be," his now-wife, Ellen Hertzberg said. He started the swim at their home, about a half-mile from the lighthouse where the two wed.
