Unfulfilled by his traditional education, Wim Hof dove headlong into self-study at the age of 12. His soul search for deeper meaning drew him into texts on psychology, philosophy, Hinduism, Buddhism, and various other religions. After years of study and dedication to martial arts and spiritual discipline, he still longed for something more. One day while on a walk through the woods, he stumbled onto an ice-covered body of water and felt drawn to get in. The rush he experienced satisfied his inner longing more than anything else he had encountered. This moment propelled him onward into his lifelong quest for research-based answers and pure adventure. In this clip, Wim Hof gives us some insight into how his fascination with the cold originally began.
