Love this. Been a big fan of cold exposure for a few years - mainly sea swimming and cold showers. Looks like a great experience I was due to do a massive Wim Hof event in London but it got pulled in the pandemic. Love your reaction to "what do you do?" - "lots of things" 😂 Defo borrowing this. I like this and just subscribed thanks.

Chris, thank you for this text. Cold water exposure is something I can read all day long. And by the way, love this sentence:

"Group jam sessions are mostly about confidence, which I have no shortage of."

Cheers.

This is awesome Chris! I really enjoyed it. What a gift from your mom!

I've been a follower of Wim Hoff for many years and am into all of this stuff. I would love to do something like this someday.

How was Mike Posner? He seems like pretty cool and special dude from what I've gathered.

Great guy. Have you seen his walking across America video?

I fully recommend a Wim event. There’s a map in his site with events all over the world. Hope to see you there!

Cool! I have not. I just remember seeing a clip of him finishing the journey. He had a crazy beard and looked pretty rough.

yeah he got bit by a rattlesnake and almost died, healed up then finished the walk.

the climbing everest video is good too. Dreama's boyfriend is his climbing guide/buddy. So wild lol

Showing up to an event where you don't know anyone always takes some balls
