Stève Stievenart, nicknamed "the Seal" ("le Phoque"), is a swimmer who specializes in extreme open-water swimming. His nickname comes from his build and his particular diet. To protect himself from the severe cold of the waters he faces, this resident of Wimereux (North of France) eats almost exclusively fatty fish, like seals [do]. https://podcasts.afp.com/afp-audio-sur-le-fil/202408112300-steve-le-phoque-lhomme-qui-dompte-les-mers-rediff
