Alain Bombard, a French biologist, physician, and politician, gained fame for his bold achievement of crossing the Atlantic Ocean without provisions. He believed in the possibility of humans surviving such a journey without supplies, which prompted him to undertake the challenge to potentially save the lives of those stranded at sea. Alongside his adventurous endeavors, Bombard had a noteworthy political career, serving as a Member of the European Parliament for the Socialist Party in France from 1981 to 1994.
