Alain Bombard (French pronunciation:[alɛ̃bɔ̃baʁ]; Paris, 27 October 1924 – Paris, 19 July 2005) was a French biologist, physician and politician famous for sailing in a small boat across the Atlantic Ocean without provision. He theorized that a human being could very well survive the trip across the ocean without provisions and decided to test his theory himself in order to save thousands of lives of people lost at sea.[citation needed]
He was a Member of the European Parliament from the Socialist Party for France from 1981 to 1994.
