Top snowboarder spends 300 days alone on a desert island

Xavier Rosset is a snowboard champion who fulfilled a castaway dream of living on a desert island. With no food supplies, and only a few tools he coped with hunger, mosquitoes and tropical storms. Loneliness was the hardest challenge. He documented his adventure in a self-shot documentary. (Raffaella Rossello, swissinfo.ch/SF)
