Season 2 - Episode 21: Richard Martin - A Lewes Legend on Fish Hunting, Free Diving, the Apollo Program, and Setting World Records
Richard Martin doesn’t wait for fish. He dives for them, armed only with a spear gun, knife, and the air in his lungs. For over seven decades, Richard has fished underwater around the country, side by side with sharks, jellyfish, and species ready to fight back. He also helped design, build, and test the spacesuits worn by the astronauts during the Apollo Program. A funny, candid, remarkable reminiscence from a man who grabbed life and yanked it to him, just as he did the fish he caught.
