Yanik Silver combines a love of adventure and a love of business to get better at both.
"Yanik Silver was getting nervous, which was making him angry. He'd come all the way to Iceland from his Potomac, Maryland home to scuba dive the Silfra Ravine, a rocky crevasse about sixty feet deep but often narrower than a two-lane road. About two hours east of Reykjavik by car, the ravine is a place where the American and Eurasian continental plates meet — you can literally swim from one continent to the next — and Silver had dreamed of diving it for years.
