The Iceman.
Hi Folks,
.
How the hell are you.
Be cheered my darlings, it’s nearly the weekend.
.
After doing yesterday’s post I was reminded of a guy called Wim Hof.
This guy is totally incredible and is somehow able to resist levels of extreme cold.
.
This Guinness Book Of Records world record holder has carried out and survived many tests of incredible endurance.
For instance, he ran a half marathon, 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle, in his shorts and bare feet.
.
.
.
His world record was obtained when he swam under ice for 80 metres, wearing only a swimsuit.
.
.
He even climbed Mount Everest, which has defeated many people.
The only difference for Wim was that he was successful even though he was wearing only a pair of shorts.
.
In Chelsea, he stood in a container of ice in the street for 72 minutes, to break the previous record.
.
.
It seems that he does these unbelievable things things while using a special form of Tantric mind control, to prevent all of the normal bodily reactions to such an extreme of temperature.
He generates heat.
.
It makes me feel very ashamed of the fuss I made the last time stepped into the bath, not realising that the hot water had gone off halfway through filling it, and found that it was bloody freezing!
I guess I would have to get into the Guinness Book Of Records by a much easier route, like being the person who uses the most toilet paper on one visit to the bathroom.
Big H says that, judging by the amount I use, you would think that I had another twenty people in there with me.
A sort of ‘Fill A Bowl’ Party!!!!
.
.
This man , who is about 50 now, has confounded everyone….including me!
Just shows what we can achieve when we set our minds to it.
Have a good one.
J.
