A 59-year-old Bulgarian man has swum more than 1.25 miles completely tied up in a bag in a bid to enter into the Guinness World Records book.

Wrapped in an orange, porous bag with his arms and legs strapped to his body, Jane Petkov swam “on his back, like a dolphin” to cross Lake Ohrid in southern Macedonia, said Saso Tockov, one of the event organisers.
