[Music]00:00:42
ah00:00:47
for everyone who is watching this00:00:51
with this group in particular they are00:00:54
all about discomfort00:00:57
seeking discomfort this is not for00:01:00
everybody00:01:05
don't do this at home directly like00:01:07
copying don't do it00:01:09
these guys are experienced00:01:12
[Music]00:01:23
he's able to withstand extreme cold this00:01:26
guy00:01:27
runs the top of everest in his underwear00:01:29
he says it's easy experts are baffled00:01:31
how is he able to survive00:01:33
[Music]00:01:35
or as some of you may know him the00:01:37
iceman00:01:39
he might well be one of the most unique00:01:41
humans currently alive00:01:43
for the past 20 years he's been breaking00:01:44
countless endurance records00:01:46
mostly around his ability to resist00:01:48
extreme cold00:01:49
temperatures00:01:53
from spending nearly two hours submerged00:01:56
in ice water without his core body00:01:57
temperature changing00:01:58
to climbing past the death zone of mount00:02:01
everest barefoot00:02:02
wearing nothing but shorts or running a00:02:05
full marathon in the desert of namibia00:02:07
without drinking water00:02:09
he surpassed what anyone thought the00:02:11
human body was capable of00:02:13
over and over and for a while00:02:16
that's what he was known for as the00:02:18
iceman00:02:19
the freak of nature who breaks00:02:21
impossible records but after a series of00:02:23
independent scientific studies00:02:25
he's proven that with his specific00:02:27
training00:02:29
we're all capable of pushing our minds00:02:30
and bodies way past what was thought00:02:32
possible00:02:33
thank you and he calls it the wim hof00:02:37
method how is it possible for a human being to00:02:39
be exposed00:02:41
in an ice bath for one hour and 4400:02:44
minutes wim hof is changing scientists00:02:47
understanding of how the body works00:02:50
he recently shook the scientific00:02:51
community after injecting himself and a00:02:53
few of his students00:02:54
with the form of an infectious e coli00:02:56
bacteria00:02:57
we saw less fever he had less flu-like00:03:00
symptoms00:03:01
and he also had lessened concentrations00:03:03
of inflammatory proteins in his blood00:03:06
together they fought off the disease00:03:08
through breathing and meditation00:03:10
both of which are major pillars of his00:03:12
method leaving the world00:03:14
confused and us like many others00:03:17
fascinated while wim may seem superhuman00:03:20
and a total anomaly to the human race00:03:22
there are now millions of people around00:03:23
the world practicing his method00:03:27
[Applause]00:03:28
his records and his life raises the00:03:30
question what if there is a world of00:03:33
untapped potential and all of us just00:03:35
waiting to be released an ability to tap00:03:37
into deeper parts of our brain00:03:39
to regain control and willpower over our00:03:41
own bodies00:03:42
and do things we never thought we were00:03:44
capable of before00:03:46
and so after meeting wim in la a few00:03:48
months ago and hearing about all his00:03:50
claims we were fully intrigued by the00:03:52
possibility of unlocking our full potential we felt00:03:55
like we had no other choice but to fly00:03:57
out to his training camp in poland00:03:59
and experienced it in person our goal00:04:01
was to understand whether wim00:04:03
is simply a madman with superhuman00:04:05
abilities whether he has actually made a00:04:07
groundbreaking discovery00:04:08
about what the human mind is capable of00:04:11
we brought a group of friends and00:04:12
filmmakers to help capture the process00:04:14
and even though we arrived in poland00:04:16
with over three years of experience and00:04:18
seeking discomfort00:04:19
none of us could have expected the wild00:04:20
journey for answers00:04:22
we were about to embark on and it begins00:04:26
yes oh it hasn't started you don't have00:04:28
to wear a t-shirt you can wear a jacket00:04:30
well i'm acclimating00:04:31
we haven't done like the breathing or00:04:33
anything i went on a run last night00:04:35
shirtless to acclimate this is good00:04:39
they turned off the heaters at midnight00:04:41
last night and then it progressively00:04:43
kept getting colder and colder and i was00:04:44
like00:04:45
wow i was freezing yeah my feet are00:04:47
freezing we're not in the snow yet we're00:04:49
going to be walking and00:04:50
we're talking about wood being cold yeah00:04:52
i feel like women would give up on us00:04:53
if we told them you're refusing to kind00:04:56
of00:04:57
show any emotion about everything that00:04:59
is said on everything that is happening00:05:00
i'm just patiently waiting just because00:05:02
someone's message is good doesn't mean00:05:04
that the messenger themself is like00:05:06
anything special he said you have to00:05:07
fully believe in order for it to work00:05:09
and the men is here00:05:11
yes that's me00:05:15
i'm a simple man yet i'm going to change00:05:19
the world00:05:20
we are made to believe that a whole lot00:05:22
of things a whole lot of crap00:05:23
is normal like war and disease and00:05:26
mental disorders it's made a00:05:28
sort of playful like uh yeah that's life00:05:31
life it can be a00:05:33
tough [ __ ] and all that [ __ ] i don't00:05:36
believe that within four days i will bring you guys00:05:40
into a state of mind00:05:43
more than ever you have experienced00:05:46
before00:05:47
making you able to go in very stressful00:05:50
environments like a freezing cold00:05:53
mountain frozen over in short00:05:57
four hours in four days it's not like a00:05:59
training00:06:00
it's an awakening and in this awakening00:06:04
we show the world00:06:05
that we have so much more power already00:06:08
here right now00:06:10
and it needs just a couple of steps00:06:13
to this cover when it comes to climbing00:06:16
the mountain00:06:17
um what kind of gear are we going to00:06:19
have00:06:20
yeah just a a couple of spikes under00:06:22
your shoes00:06:23
and as short a little shorts little00:06:26
shorts00:06:27
shorts yeah yeah shows enough to cover00:06:29
it all you know00:06:30
how long is it going to take to go up we00:06:33
don't know oh it depends on the mountain00:06:35
a mountain in sunshine is a very nice00:06:37
you can stay for hours there's nothing00:06:39
going on but you will not do that when00:06:42
there is a wind chill00:06:43
of 100 kilometers it's like a whip on00:06:48
you don't stay picnicking while a whip00:06:50
is going on you just want to go as fast00:06:52
as possible and00:06:54
maybe it's not even possible the00:06:56
mountain is a mirror00:06:57
of our capacities coming up and we00:07:00
got so much more within us and the00:07:03
mountain will just bring it out00:07:06
but before that is going to happen we're00:07:08
going to pollute it00:07:09
with a nice splash you better be ready00:07:12
are you ready00:07:13
do you feel ready yeah i don't know00:07:15
ready for what but yeah00:07:17
okay that's exactly what i need a00:07:19
natural00:07:20
expression let's do this00:07:25
you want to ring the bells baby00:07:30
right off the bat we got a feeling that00:07:32
wim had no intention of treating us00:07:34
like a regular group normally he begins00:07:36
by teaching his breathing and meditation00:07:38
techniques that allow you to cope with00:07:40
the extreme cold00:07:41
but his most recent study has indicated00:07:43
that this may be possible to be achieved00:07:46
all through the power of the mind so00:07:48
instead of training us he thought it'd00:07:49
be an interesting idea for the first day00:07:51
to start off with a real life trial of00:07:53
that study00:07:54
by taking us straight to cliff jumping00:07:57
into ice water00:07:58
he doesn't usually do this where we go00:08:00
in without any breath00:08:01
work oh he doesn't specifically we've00:08:03
been told if you're in00:08:04
water without training that temperature00:08:06
for three minutes your body shuts down00:08:07
yeah i mean all he said was to put on00:08:09
freaking choice so i'm assuming we're00:08:10
about to get00:08:11
really cold i'm down for the breathing00:08:13
and the training00:08:14
i'm not down for the jumping with00:08:16
nothing and no training00:08:17
and no breathing nothing just full-on00:08:20
noobs all right we are about to go for00:08:22
our first adventure with wim00:08:24
to the waterfall we're jumping from six00:08:26
meters up we have never00:08:27
we have not done any training00:08:36
what about frost bites no no pros right00:08:39
here that is in the00:08:41
long time exposure into gold don't you00:08:44
do it00:08:46
it's from that is the one where we jump00:08:49
from00:08:50
down into the ice water zero degrees and00:08:54
floating00:08:55
so it's colder than normal we're about00:08:57
to discover00:08:58
the definition of freezing your nuts off00:09:13
dude i've never jumped in cold water why00:09:15
are we doing a cliff jump00:09:16
six meters up freezing shallow water00:09:34
[Music]00:09:38
oh [ __ ]00:09:52
[Music]00:10:17
[Music]00:10:24
as we were celebrating completing his00:10:26
initiation without us realizing it00:10:28
wim was carefully watching us and our00:10:30
reactions we're about to completely00:10:32
determine how our next three days00:10:35
would pan out00:10:43
i've never like pushed my body like that00:10:45
before like every single voice inside00:10:47
your mind is just like screaming at you00:10:49
like are you insane00:10:50
you cannot think about nothing than00:10:52
surviving when you are in the cold00:10:55
you don't think about your indulging00:10:57
into your emotion00:10:59
and your brother broken heart and all00:11:01
those things00:11:02
you just gotta survive thus you learn to00:11:05
control your emotions00:11:06
today when we went to jump off the cliff00:11:08
you said that the anxiety and the fear00:11:09
that we're facing is natural00:11:11
yes uh what would you say your00:11:12
relationship with anxiety and fear is00:11:14
uh today it was a great day because i00:11:17
saw00:11:18
not only me having fun the the waterfall00:11:22
but you hold it this ball game is going00:11:24
to be good00:11:25
this coming four days so how i'm dealing00:11:27
with this anxiety00:11:28
there is no anxiety there's only power00:11:32
and that power is going to be ours it's00:11:35
going to be our mind and00:11:36
my challenge these four days is to bring00:11:39
you to the full00:11:40
understanding by feeling of your of the00:11:44
power of your own00:11:45
mind and send that into the world that00:11:48
it is there00:11:49
that we knock on your heaven's door00:11:51
inside and that you are the master of00:11:54
your own brain00:11:55
you are the owner of your own brain00:11:58
got that your own mind your own00:12:01
happiness strength and health00:12:02
is yours our first day in poland came to00:12:04
an end00:12:05
without training we went to bed hopeful00:12:07
that the next day would finally start00:12:09
preparing for the intense climb up the00:12:11
mountain in three days but when we woke up we00:12:14
were told that whim00:12:15
had other plans00:12:20
normally i don't i go gradually into00:12:24
step by step but not with this group00:12:27
they are00:12:28
all about discomfort seeking discomfort00:12:32
is exactly what i needed so we jumped00:12:34
straight into the depth00:12:36
which normally i do absolutely not it's00:12:39
bringing00:12:40
heart attacks to people because the00:12:42
vascular system is not right00:12:45
but in this case i could specifically00:12:47
with this group00:12:48
i want to try out the last study i've00:12:51
shown00:12:52
that it is all in the mind we are built00:12:55
to be happy strong and healthy we got00:12:57
all the tools00:12:58
but they are not awakened but who is00:13:01
going to wake them up00:13:03
that's us this week we're gonna do00:13:06
things i've never done because i've been00:13:09
a guinea pig00:13:10
all my life and i changed the books00:13:13
now i'm going to do that with yes theory00:13:25
here's the plan there is no plan00:13:28
we do whatever whim decides we were00:13:30
supposed to have00:13:32
do something up here but apparently00:13:33
we're gonna go downstairs and figure out00:13:35
what his plan is00:13:36
if he tells you to jump in the water you00:13:37
jump in the water if he tells you to00:13:38
sleep you sleep00:13:40
if he wants to slap you in the face you00:13:42
get slapped in the face00:13:43
that's what a master does00:13:46
wim told me to do that whim said it dude00:13:49
we're [ __ ]00:14:03
i woke up at half past three and since00:14:07
then i've been thinking oh [ __ ] this is00:14:09
gonna go a completely different way we00:14:11
don't want a00:14:12
another vice documentary we want00:14:15
something new00:14:16
right now i'm preparing a 10 minutes ice00:14:19
bath00:14:20
for you guys 10 minutes all of you00:14:24
set your mind the latest study00:14:27
showed we are able to tap into the00:14:29
deepest part of the brain00:14:30
just at will we will show and without00:14:33
you00:14:34
how to handle the brain how to handle00:14:37
the mind set your mind your mind00:14:41
will make your body able and survive00:14:43
from a 10 minutes00:14:45
ice bath as a treat we come back up here00:14:48
and we have a great festival in the00:14:51
sauna00:14:52
and then you get food okay what about00:14:54
breath00:14:55
bruh yeah one mouth method baby tomorrow00:14:58
we're gonna do00:15:00
breathing we make it a shortcut because00:15:02
you guys00:15:03
all from going out of comfort00:15:06
into the discomfort there is the comfort00:15:09
i will00:15:10
show you what is comfort perfect we're00:15:12
ready let's go00:15:13
ice bath baby let's go okay stop look at00:15:16
them00:15:17
i wish we could replace just his face00:15:21
we're supposed to learn the breathing00:15:23
techniques to cope with the cold today00:15:24
but00:15:25
he decided to skip that step and just00:15:27
throw it00:15:28
straight in the cold and see if we can00:15:30
just with the power of our mind00:15:32
adapt to it00:15:36
what does that mean man i was freezing00:15:38
when i had my toes in the snow i was00:15:40
supposed to sit00:15:41
in the freaking ice bath do you know 1000:15:43
minutes is a very long time00:15:44
thanks man yeah i had no idea it's a00:15:46
very long time in ice water00:15:50
involves breathing and that's a big part00:15:52
of it00:15:53
and the fact that we're surpassing that00:15:54
and just trying to go straight to the00:15:56
mindset00:15:57
i've never done like a full ice bath00:15:59
without the breath00:16:00
if you've never done ice baths you're00:16:01
not gonna do more than three minutes00:16:06
or even two to start and we're doing 10.00:16:09
the whole point of us being here is00:16:11
to learn and i feel like we're just00:16:13
being thrown into [ __ ]00:16:14
being like the power of your mind00:16:17
just shut up and do it when your house00:16:20
is on fire you run fast00:16:23
you don't need to think you go because00:16:25
adrenaline is there00:16:27
so it's like the house is on fire it's00:16:29
not on fire00:16:30
but you are on fire follow me in this00:16:33
and it's going to happen begin to doubt00:16:36
and00:16:37
something else is going to happen so is00:16:38
there something physically i do00:16:40
or something mentally that i need to do00:16:42
to like center my mind00:16:44
just follow the breath okay00:16:48
here you are the only thing is don't00:16:50
interfere what the body is able to do00:16:52
with what the body is able to do00:16:54
adaptation meditation is dynamic00:16:57
it's real it's a deeper part of the00:16:59
brain having a sufficient00:17:01
blood flow now they studied mindfulness00:17:05
of research00:17:06
and they saw that within 10 minutes what00:17:08
we do00:17:09
people even after years of training in00:17:12
mindfulness00:17:13
are not able to get into now put the00:17:16
signs out of there00:17:17
and get back to your sense you are the00:17:19
one in command00:17:20
over yourself you got that yeah00:17:24
three minutes is hypothermia right yeah00:17:27
and we're doing 10 minutes without00:17:29
training that's good00:17:32
okay in alaska we were in the water for00:17:34
probably 30 seconds and i00:17:35
never in my wildest dreams thought that00:17:37
i could stay in cold water for three00:17:40
more than like two minutes this is00:17:41
testing every assumption i've ever made00:17:43
about myself00:17:44
in the cold i hate the cold and in a way00:17:46
there's like a method to his madness you00:17:48
know at first i was i was mad at him00:17:50
i was like why are you training us and00:17:52
then the other part of me00:17:54
after a while thinking about it was like00:17:56
[ __ ] just happens in life and you have00:17:57
no control over it and00:17:58
there's no training you just have to00:18:01
like react00:18:02
the house is on fire what are you going00:18:03
to do survive00:18:05
actually surviving is something that we00:18:06
never do you never have to survive00:18:09
you know yeah you have to survive00:18:13
hypothermia like if you lose control00:18:16
over your body00:18:17
you will literally just collapse00:18:24
i'm already freezing you go down put00:18:27
your hands here00:18:28
tight on your thighs long exhalation00:18:32
and let the body do what the body is00:18:34
able to do don't interfere00:18:37
let it go you got it yeah00:18:40
are you ready yeah it's just talking to00:18:42
thomas that's how we're saying00:18:45
yes let's do it let's do it baby let's00:18:48
go here [ __ ] it00:18:52
here's what i've come to terms with00:18:54
without training without any of this00:18:56
the only thing we can rely on is our own00:18:58
mind00:18:59
if we can accomplish this something that00:19:00
i legitimately think is impossible right00:19:02
now00:19:03
then we should be able to push our minds00:19:05
beyond anything else00:19:06
in regular life00:19:13
[Music]00:19:17
your brain knows what to00:19:20
[Music]00:19:23

with fully trained groups and by the end00:25:19
of it we were promised that the00:25:21
following morning00:25:22
wim was finally going to introduce us to00:25:24
his famous breathing technique00:25:25
to help us cope with a cold00:25:29
it's too early for this let's have some00:25:34
[Music]00:25:40
coffee00:25:48
[Music]00:25:54
crazy00:25:57
right now we're about to do finally the00:25:59
breathing he's going to be leading the00:26:01
team for about 45 minutes and is in 4500:26:04
minutes okay are you relaxed yes00:26:07
just move your body a little shake it00:26:09
you know00:26:12
get the [ __ ] out i'm here i'm here i00:26:15
wake up00:26:16
i'm gonna do my best and everybody is00:26:18
gonna00:26:20
possibly do three minutes without air in00:26:22
the lungs00:26:23
so think and feel as if you fill up your00:26:27
belly00:26:28
through your mouth or nose it doesn't00:26:29
matter pull it in00:26:32
then the chest and then into your heart00:26:35
and then you let it go00:26:38
belly check high light and go00:26:43
belly chest hide00:26:46
letting go belly guy00:26:51
let him go would you00:26:55
like to see waves on the shore00:26:59
and letting go letting go00:27:02
this is round number one if you feel00:27:05
light-headed loose in the body00:27:06
tingling it's all all right breathe00:27:10
into it intensify whatever you feel00:27:14
intensify and three boulier00:27:20
as we're finally starting to learn the00:27:22
method i think it might be a good time00:27:23
to explain00:27:24
what it consists of there's three main00:27:27
components00:27:28
breathing meditation and gradual cold00:27:30
exposure00:27:31
and its main objective is to awaken the00:27:33
deeper parts of the brain that wim00:27:35
claims we've lost control over first00:27:38
whim's meditation technique differs from00:27:40
traditional practices by preparing the00:27:41
mind and body00:27:42
to stay strong and calm during00:27:44
situations of stress when the00:27:46
fight-or-flight response00:27:47
is activated he then gradually takes00:27:50
people through cold exposure countless00:27:52
independent studies have shown that cold00:27:54
exposure boosts the immune system00:27:56
and decreases inflammation in the body00:27:58
which is also why pro-athletes use it00:28:00
all the time00:28:01
for recovery but win believes the cold00:28:04
can do so much more and lastly his breathing00:28:06
technique is designed to take deep00:28:08
inhales and gentler exhales in order to00:28:10
take in00:28:11
more air than we're letting out this00:28:13
allows your body to function at a higher00:28:15
level than normal00:28:16
it can get you to hold your breath for00:28:18
three to four minutes00:28:20
this process can in some cases cause a00:28:22
wide variety of physical00:28:23
and emotional responses00:28:31
[Music]00:28:42
yes00:28:45
[Music]00:28:55

of anything relax guys relax00:30:01
it's all right the blood has been00:30:06
alkalized oh00:30:08
good00:30:14
at some point i was just just completely00:30:17
out of my body00:30:19
i feel amazing i've never been able to00:30:21
like hold my breath longer than like 4500:30:23
seconds so holding it for three minutes00:30:25
was like00:30:26
trippy it felt like 10 seconds00:30:30
like you lose track of time like i'm00:30:31
holding my breath00:30:33
and then he's like good that's three00:30:34
minutes i was like whoa that felt like00:30:36
20 seconds00:30:37
when you were holding the breath for00:30:38
like three minutes i saw his hand was00:30:40
like00:30:41
like a little bit like that so i just00:30:42
started filming and suddenly he was like00:30:45
his eyes were like rolled up and i00:30:47
thought he had like a seizure00:30:57
what the [ __ ] just happened as we00:31:00
thought we were finally going through00:31:02
the full wim hof method00:31:03
he decided to fully flip the script00:31:06
again and skip the rest of the training and go00:31:08
straight to the mountain00:31:10
today shut the [ __ ] up and let's climb00:31:13
this mountain00:31:14

[Music]00:31:45
so when decided to completely reverse00:31:47
the00:31:48
the whole setup for us so he started00:31:50
with showing us the power of our minds00:31:52
and then00:31:53
training us but even with all of that he00:31:55
still decided to skip day three of00:31:56
training which is usually more00:31:58
more breath work and like kind of ice00:31:59
baths and take us straight up the00:32:01
mountain they've never done this with a group00:32:03
before ever and all the groups they've00:32:04
had here for training is the first time00:32:06
he's done it like this00:32:07
and it's like we're the guinea pigs for00:32:09
it i mean the only thing we can rely on00:32:11
is ourselves at this point00:32:12
like in each other right like it's just00:32:15
this is on like the verge of being00:32:16
reckless00:32:18
i mean it is pretty much reckless and i00:32:19
think he even acknowledges it but i00:32:21
guess we'll see uh00:32:23

ahead of us00:34:39

fourth of the way there starting to feel00:35:01
it on my back mostly00:35:03
but just trying to focus on the00:35:05
breathing and just follow women's00:35:07
footsteps00:35:09
keeps you distracted just thinking of00:35:10
your breath this is like00:35:12
slow pain whereas the ice bath was00:35:14
instant shock and so if you keep00:35:16

[Music]00:35:35
[Applause]00:35:39
[Music]00:35:41
it's a power of the moment00:35:44
coming to you and then suddenly the body00:35:48
is able to do so much more00:36:00
[Music]00:36:05
this guy's spot was sharp just like a00:36:08
punch00:36:09
whereas this is getting colder and00:36:11
colder00:36:12
and because we're climbing up a mountain00:36:13
as well we're getting more tired00:36:16
a little bit more altitude oh do you00:36:18
feel that00:36:21
that feels good that's a whip straight00:36:23
to the chest00:36:27
ah this fresh snow it's not helping the00:36:30
situation though00:36:31
it's the fingers they're like blocks00:36:44
[Music]00:36:47
ah some00:36:50
[ __ ] wind we just got to the point00:36:53
where the00:36:54
wind is really starting to catch up and00:36:57
there's snow00:36:58
hitting it hard in the face it's so cold00:37:01
look at these trees this is so crazy00:37:17
let's go max00:37:34
it's pretty deep we're getting too deep00:37:37
we're about 1900 meters in elevation00:37:39
which is almost00:37:40
like it's over it's it's 5800 feet and00:37:44
at this point the snow this one still00:37:46
goes up all the way here so00:37:49
can't it's almost lips anymore i can't00:37:50
feel my hands but00:37:52
other than that the internals are still00:37:53
warm thomas is gone tom just wants to00:37:55
[ __ ] run down there00:37:57
and i second that let's go a few hundred00:37:59
meters from the mountain summit00:38:01
we got stuck the snow levels were00:38:03
getting up to our waist and making the00:38:04
call to continue the trek to the top00:38:07
became extremely unsafe amidst the00:38:09
intensifying00:38:10
weather conditions we should be sensible00:38:13
about this00:38:14
together with the windchill it is more00:38:16
than 20.00:38:18
and it is impossible to to go up00:38:22
still it's going to be here we did it we00:38:24
did we bloody did it hell yeah we bloody00:38:27
did it continuing past this point would have00:38:29
put us in real danger00:38:31
but in our eyes and in whims eyes we did00:38:34
it00:38:37
[Music]00:38:44
it took us a silent climb down of00:38:46
reflection and a day of warming back up00:38:48
to fully understand the purpose00:38:50
of all the pain crazy like a monkey00:38:53
crazy like a monkey i will00:38:58
we begin to realize is that wim's00:38:59
objective this entire week00:39:01
hadn't been to teach us his method but00:39:03
instead to show us that even without it00:39:06
the human mind is capable of so much00:39:08
more than we ever00:39:09
thought possible that we were capable of00:39:12
so much more than we thought possible00:39:15
and that no matter what challenge we're00:39:16
going through in our lives we should00:39:18
never lose hope and underestimate our00:39:20
ability to shine00:39:22
and find the strength within us to00:39:24
succeed we spent the morning after the00:39:26
climb doing a group reflection with win00:39:28
and he decided to end our trip00:39:30
where it all began i wanted to complete00:39:32
the make it full circle00:39:34
and so now i want to end this00:39:38
ritualistic basically he wants us to00:39:40
take these torches00:39:41
light them up and walk back to that00:39:43
waterfall that you guys that everybody00:39:45
jumped off the first day00:39:46
normally i go and do not exceed00:39:50
no longer than two minutes in ice water00:39:52
immersion00:39:54
you guys did five times you guys00:39:57
jumped directly from seven meters down00:40:00
even00:40:01
gainers i saw hey what was going on here00:40:05
because you have three years of working00:40:08
together or even more always going into00:40:11
discomfort00:40:12
that means you have gone out of the00:40:14
normal00:40:15
way of thinking and that made you00:40:18
for me perfect to be my guinea pigs00:40:23
for new research pioneering because we00:40:26
gotta revolutionize something00:40:28
in this world and show that we are made00:40:30
of00:40:31
much more than we think and for that we00:40:34
have to dive into the depth00:40:36
yeah and for that you got fear right now00:40:40
because this is normal this is nature00:40:43
this is for the guys who venture who00:40:46
pioneer00:40:47
who go past their fear and their00:40:50
controlled00:40:51
way of thinking they go past and show00:40:54
new ways new directions and that was the00:40:57
aim00:40:58
of these last four days you guys00:41:01
did bloody great to unlock your00:41:04
potential00:41:05
we have given ourselves fully the last00:41:08
