This guy can swim in freezing water and I can't shower with Luke warm water
i cant shower in hot i can only shower in cold but this man takes it to a whole new lvl 😂😂
Damn straight

Luke warm Water, isn't that the guy from Star Wars?
Who's Luke? and why did you try showering in his water?
The cold never bothered him anyway
Let it go

he would have survived if he were on the titanic, Jack should've had enough mental power to do this. Damn Leo.
Titanic wasn't real, it was just a conspiracy theory.
Charlie Borrett oh my good lordy. i'm not talking about the real ship sinking and how people believe it was an act of insurance fraud. i'm talking about Leonardo DiCaprio in the movie…..
Charlie Borrett Titantic wasn't real???And neither is your life.
Charlie Borrett what happened then
hate Google plus you my friend, have a valid point!
His nuts will never forgive him ... lol.
your about as apropriat as a 20 year old gangster half pint
Actually nuts prefer to be cold. They don't keep sperm in ovens in clinics
freezing your balls is like steroids
His nuts praise him.
already lost his balls
my brother and i have been doing his training for about two months now and we've noticed huge improvements in our ability to handle the cold. we started with taking baths with cold water, to adding a bit of ice, to where we are now with ten gallons of ice in our bath. it sometimes takes over an hour for it to thaw completely! combine that with his breathing and cold showers every day and i guarantee you will begin to adapt. the water in the pond we swim at is about 5 degrees and we're still going!
wish us luck! this stuff is for real. anyone can do it!
I go camping in the winter and at night when we're sitting in our tent talking everyone else is fully dressed and wrapping up in their sleeping bags and I'm sitting on top of mine with my shirt off
+Chris Kerwin Lowering your body temperature quickly can hause hypothermia and heart attack. You don't even notice it if you train your body to "ignore" the cold, but it affects you and kills thousands every year.
I know what you mean I swim in the winter in 14c water but it is tough work. Mentally draining for me. All the best.
+The Forms, Wim was examined by doctors/researchers, they found he's able to keep his body temperature steady as if it was unaffected by the cold whereas for regular people it could cause serious harm, its not ignoring but exploiting the unused parts of your mind

He is the real Sub-Zero.

Roi Gipot lol. i have seen finnish KIDS last longer in avanto than this dude. 😂
@@henkkahenrik4183 As a finnish man, I can say that you are bullshitting bc no finnish man would take a that long swim trip in artic area. Usually finnish people only swim few meters back and forth and then go back to the sauna. Finnish people arent more superior than swedish for instance
kaljamaha16 that seriously depends on how north you grow up, and your genetics. I could easily do this. And so could most of my childhood friends and neighbours. We still followed traditions of swimming in frozen lakes, letting kids sleep out in winter etc, which helps kids grow good resistance to cold. Tho i actually also have slightly better cold resistance than most finns, including my parents since i was kid. Not sure why but i literally can't feel cold the same way others can. My dad used to nag me all the time when i went out in t-shirt at winter. Also i have noticed that most people who live in capital areas are far weaker to cold for some reason.
@@henkkahenrik4183 Joo tottakai kuka pystyis uida tuol ja niihä sanotaa tos videoski, mutta on toi aika vaikuttava suoritus. Ja joo seki vaikuttaa aik paljo et mis päi suomee asuu kodk tottunu eri kylmyytee mut keskiverto suomalaine ei pystyis toho uimisee ilman harjottelua.

He just goes in, with no complaints. this man is smart.
Someone needs to challenge him to the ice bucket challenge.
Dead Challenge, Let's talk abut: Don't judge a book by its cover Challenge, XD
😂
He just went completely into the water there and u want to challenge him to put a bucket of ice and water on himself?
M. Cobretti I think he was being ironic/sarcastic, my friend. 😏
Yeah I guess I took that rather seriously.
my thoughts just fly away of what's under him in the deep

Maybe frozen fish fingers
@TheGhost i was deep in the sea and i told my friend to give me his goggles for a sec. ( wtf was i thinking:))))) ) i saw what was under me and i went into jesus mode, almost run on water to the surface
This man proved that anything is possible. Even surviving in extreme cold is possible.
I think he got hypothermia right after getting out lol
@@PopTap If you are very active you can generate a lot of body heat. Generally it is the watts output in the swimming crossed with the caloric energy loss from submersion. The conversion contant of brown fat also is a thing, your body turns off certain processes and activates mitochondria to generate heat. Continued cold exposure causes the body to create more mitochondria leading to better thermal conversion. The body will also start processes that turn fat into brown fat for thermogenesis.. basically the more you are exposed to cold the more the body adapts to make heat.
@@PopTaphe does this every day of his life
Just love this man so much.he changes and saves lives.
Long and healthy life to you Wim. ❤️❤️
i think you should train as well
This video got me into wild swimming. Currently in my first winter of cold water swimming and it’s changed my life. Thank you, Wim ❄️🙏
Can u please tell me the benefits?
0:52
Just described everything I'm not.
Love how he addresses the water! "Clear, good, inviting, attractive, powerful."
I want him as my master so he can train me!
Harbinger_CR
He has online courses.
Victor Bellavin where?
Harbinger_CR Just google "Wim Hof Online Courses"
Vic Bell well I know what im doing for the next 10 weeks
Vic Bell $247..........maybe some other day I will try it, when im not broke XD
I really like what Wim is doing and this video inspired me to go swim in the cold water. I have swim the first time 1 minute and later even 10 minutes! It felt great and had the sentece from this video in my head: "I don't feel the pain, I feel the power". That helped to get used to the cold water and don't have thought that it was cold and keeps the fear away. It felt great to do and afterwards I had some kind of mystical experience because of the exposure to the cold. Wim his method is really fascinating and it shows how much potential we all have and that their is so much possible in the world!
I remember the times I was in the polar Bear club when I was a teenager. We had to swim a mile everyday in excruciating frigid water. If you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything in life.... This is amazing....
There is a swimming club in my city known as the Icebergs I'm thinking of joining them.

I don't feel the cold, I feel the power 👌 Well said
well he gets the beach to himself...
Love finding videos of Wim from those days...all ways a great man
..then and now...❤🤞
This shows how powerful the mind is
This guy seems like he would be suitable to live on Mars
i don't think so. he's only able to stay in cold conditions for a short period.
@@CavePony he can withstand cold environment for about two hours. He most of the time walks out side with a shirt and shorts in the winter.
@@CavePony He ran through a desert without drinking a drop of water so ...
@@NoOne-uz4vs yes! But not as much as the cold.
“I don’t feel the pain because I’m stronger than the pain at that moment.” 👌🏽
This guy is amazing I have issues dealing with cold lake water during summer but that's a whole different ball game!
Whenever I’m freezing cold I get goosebumps and my arm and leg hairs rise up and it helps me so I feel a little bit better and more comfortable with the cold
This is a lie. If you look closely at 0:05 you can see him drinking a resist frost potion.
hjahah
?
spiko 1337 he is making a minecraft joke. He didn’t actually drink anything to be resistant to the cold.
Sorry sir but you have been...

spiko 1337 oh lol. That’s fine then (:
He Deserves to be on the next Game of thrones! Ha
Watching this video during hot day really helps. Thank you
i remember reading about him, when he was attempting the underwater swimming world record.
holes were made on the ice under which he would swim for precaution, which proved to be wise, as @ halfway through he had to come up because he felt his eyeballs freezing..
bro has the most disciplined mindset he all above us
Him and David Goggins are just tapped into something else
it looks so beautiful though
@@LEFTYSMOKER tg
His balls: So anyways I started shrinking
I lasted less than a minute in a lake much warmer than this. That panic feeling is real.

I have to agree with this guy.
I love the cold and hate the heat(not always easy)
But when you grow up playing hockey outside during Minnesota winters you learn to get use to the cold.
I don't have the chest hair this man has! I will surely freeze into an ice cube!
hahaha.. i doubt that it will help at all. :P
this dude is the man!, inspiring
I don’t feel the cold, I feel the power -Wim Hof
tbh I can do this kind of, when im out in the cold, all you have to say to yourself in your mind is something such as 'im not cold.' and you have to feel that you arent cold.
I cant do this for long amounts of time, but when I do this, it's pretty amazing that by telling yourself something, you can acheive it.
I disagree. you cannot tell yourself that it’s not cold when in reality it truly is.
I take a different approach by accepting and embracing the cold similar to the guy in the video.
his brain is working not like rest of the world
sure it isent the reverse of what you are saying?
´+sle no
you mean our brains arent working like his
I guess our brains became too damn soft easily scared to even try
Our minds are devolped because of what society came of i bet thousanfs of years ago cavemen were able to do all kinds of things but since society changed into us being pampered who else knows what we could've done. human brains are the greatest things on this planet and we only use 8% of it
When he was swimming among the ice 😮 Incredible
Two words: Willpower & determination.
"no ego, we go!"
he even speaks like a nord
He speaks like a dutch guy, because he is dutch, like me
Ok.
he sounded like Chuck Norris
Marc Bredtved its english with dutch accent
@@villejohn8926 Dutch Norris
All in the breathing well done wim hof you are the man
The images are just amazing! Our planet is just beautiful
A big respect to this man
No he's a bot...
hey in skyrim it is just to swim right over
I was shivering while watching him
Him" : Gets in Ice cold Ocean
Me: *Struggles to get in a Pool*
"The water here is just above freezing, 2 degrees celcius, wim intends to stay in for 15 minutes, that would kill most people.:" I have read Wim Hof's book, practiced his method, and I am capable of staying in 2 degree celcius water for longer than 15 minutes. This ability is indeed trainable.
post a video or never happened
well said ice man!
show them their potential
You actually train your mind to neutralized to cold.
Yes. I've only been at it a month and I did 16.5 minutes this week. Water was between 1 and 2 degrees
yall training to survive the titanic?
Once you get past the initial acute spine tingling shock of your feet coming in contact with freezing water, it's actually quite therapeutic. I did a polar plunge in Lake Michigan during the dead of winter. It might've been negative degrees fahrenheit with the slight wind chill. We had a large almost pyre like camp wood fire on the lake shore. The primal feeling of fire and ice. Also, they gave us a really good bowl of spicy homemade chili to consume afterwards.
«Nice relaxing video. Thanks 👍

Lol
I have studied the Wim Hof Method since october 2018 and just filmed my first 5 minute Ice bath. Im preparing for 30 minutes next
I want to try too!
Wonderful sensation!
"I'm stronger than the pain"
Perfect beach, I would like to there :)
This guy would make a great mentor!
i love things like this
Of course he can take the cold. He's a Nord; Inherent cold resist.
Excuses!
He's Dutch
Oh ffs. Nice try. NOPE. Mind over matter!
this man could have easily survived titanic
what a beautiful human!
This clip of Wim is what got me into cold water swimming ❄️
he'll win the ice bucket challenge lolol
Hundreds of thousands of people across Russia, Eastern Europe and the Nordic countries do this on a regular basis.
+ateb3 Ok that's cool
Hundreds and thousands of people do this on a regular basis, and DIE
Short 10 second dip YES but 15 minutes NO
I'm from finland, we do it to a certain extent maybe staying in the cold water swim a bit then get inside
Don't forget the Himalayan monks.
Respect!
what a legend!!!
Could there possibly be some kind of meditation he practices? Living in the present moment, observing the pain in his body as "the pain in the body I am living in, but not me"?
See his Russell brand interview
Rose shouldve found a guy like this!!!
Svg Wolf LOOLLLLLLL IM DEAD XD
How long I've tried to find the composer and track that is playing in the background.
Truly sets the tone of this video.
This guy is a true legend.
How do you train for this, its awesome man.
Disobey negative feelings, thoughts, and values it's all about self control here.
When im High i watch a shit ton of discovery channels anyone else?
So true
for real man :D
Odi Ugale opposite for me lol i do it wen im sober and bored
What an amazing insparational human being.
Though its tough- as a swimmer I love a good winter swim at the sea .
Compring to this guy im swimming in a hut tub 😅
Very inspiring, Wim!
titanic is no problem for this man
if the water is 17 degrees celsius i freak out because it's too cold !
I've had rafting accidents And we all went in the water in the 40's deg range. We were all in a bit of panic so we didn't really feel it right away. But to just walk out into 32/33 deg water has to be difficult. For most of us.
iv taken a 30 minute cold shower so that stuff doesnt effect me that much
In Finland we call that taking a bath.
Autoscoot Gmail/RUclips whatttttt
Im happy to see people sharing my philosophy about pain
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I watched this before my cold shower at 4am in the morning 😂😂😂
he knows de wae cause he neva FREEEEEZ
zakaria raoui I see what u did there
It's only insane when your not prepared or conditioned for it.
It’s training, I have cold adapted down to 58F for 15 min. I did this by starting at 80 and going down by 2 degrees at a time.
Legend has it he is still swimming
I wish I could do that
feaseal hanif train to do it then
feaseal hanif you can. Everyone can, of course doesn't mean its easy!
Try the Wim Hof method
I would be screaming and shouting 😆 if I went into that water
No you wouldn't dumbass. The shock of the cold would literally take the breath away from you, preventing you from making all sounds, save a few whimpers. How did you even come up with that logic?
God CHUNG XD
