Super Humans Do Exist, Meet the Iceman

There of course is a scientific explanation of what Dutchman Wim Hof has accomplished in life.  How I interpret what I have seen of this guy is that humans do not get enough oxygen in their day.  People need water, oxygen, healthy food, and sleep to survive.  We instinctively know and are constantly told to drink more water, get more sleep, and eat a healthier diet... but nobody tells us to take more time in our day to focus on our breathing.

If I remind myself to do this, I take deep breathes for 5 minutes in the morning (to the point of feeling dizzy) and after the oxygen high wears off, I almost feel supercharged for the rest of the day.  Such a simple thing and people just don't think of it.  Now... what if you have been focusing on your breathing techniques and getting a surplus of oxygen in your body for decades?  I think that is what explains Wim Hof's abilities.




He also has a TEDx talk, but I feel like he failed to capture his method's appeal like he did in the VICE video.

Facts Beat Feelings

If you think that other people are stupid because an outcome happened or an outcome keeps happening, then you might be the stupid one for no...
