Wim Hof (born 20 April 1959), also known as The Iceman, is a Dutch motivational speaker and extreme athlete noted for his ability to withstand freezing temperatures.[1] He has set Guinness World Records for swimming under ice and prolonged full-body contact with ice, and previously held the record for a barefoot half marathon on ice and snow. He attributes these feats to his Wim Hof Method (WHM), a combination of frequent cold exposure, breathing techniques, yoga and meditation. Hof has been the subject of several medical assessments and a book written by investigative journalist Scott Carney.[2]

Feels like a modern day shaman / yogi.
Will post more on this topic, watching some videos of him and testimonies from his seminars (ex: a french skinny girl that could withstand snow / ice bath) made me finally wanna put an end to my cold aversion.
Have started to be barefoot since this morning at home and on my terrace at 2°C, I already feel more tolerant.
Cold baths are coming.
Anyone knew of him? Any comments if you tried it?
