    “A trailer I cut together to help raise money for the budget while I was working with Cloverland. Johnny Weissmuller was the Michael Phelps of the 1920’s and held the most swimming records in the world until Michael Phelps. The documentary focuses on his amazing life both inside the water and out. From Olympic champion to the big screen Tarzan, Weissmuller led a pretty interesting life full of ups and downs.”
