On this morning, about half past three, he jumped into the Danube at Novi Sad "Oficirca" and at the time this text is written he is near Old Slankamen. The plan is to get out of the water on the Zemun jetty, after a total of 15, 16 hours of swimming.

- I swim for Li, the love of my life, and the two Andreeas, for my little paradise. This is the only thing an ordinary person can do to show them how much he loves the special ones, to live for  it and for what is worth fighting for.

- All of us have our daily battles for our love ones, and they say we are worth as much as we are made by our loved ones. This is my way. I am deeply inspired with love of my parents who celebrated 50 years of marriage this year - said Zoran Sremac before he started his unusual action.

His health, security and logistical support is managed by veteran of Serbian parachuting and one of the best divers in the country Rade Veselinovic Gale from Belgrade.

- Zoran swim continuously and for now he feels good! If he continues at this pace, in the event that the conditions do not change on the Danube, he will be in by Belgrade tonight  - he was witty and Gale added that he still did not understand why his friend and colleagues ventured into this act.

And this is the route that the brave paratrooper decided to swim:
