"I am so sure that the Indians sailed across the Pacific Ocean in rafts that I am willing to build one myself and sail across the sea just to prove that it is possible."
On April 28, 1947, Thor Heyerdahl, an inveterate zoologist and adventurer, set sail with five friends on a lonely journey across the Pacific Ocean to convince doubters that the South American Indians were capable of it. They sailed alone but with great determination on a balsa raft in the middle of the ocean. A readable testimony of life at sea without modern equipment, but with great understanding and humility towards the ocean and former Indian sailors.
"Boundaries? I've never seen one myself. But I've heard that they exist in some people's minds."
Thor Heyerdahl is one of the most famous explorers of all time. His remarkable life and expeditions are an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Nobody believed him, the scientific world laughed at him. How could the Incas come from Peru to Polynesia and settle it? And how did they manage to do that when they didn't have vessels capable of traversing the distance?
