Sean Swarner battled cancer twice and spent a year in a medically induced coma – all before he was 18 years old. Since then, he’s "merely" completed the Explorers Grand Slam – scaling the highest peak on all 7 continents, and trekked to both poles. Oh, he completed the Ironman Triathlon too......all with only 1 functioning lung.
