Wim Hof first caught the attention of scientists when he proved he was able to use meditation to stay submerged in ice for 1 hour and 53 minutes without his core body temperature changing. Since then, he's climbed Mount Everest in his shorts, resisted altitude sickness, completed a marathon in the Namib Desert with no water and proven under a laboratory setting that he's able to influence his autonomic nervous system and immune system at will.
Almost everything Wim has done was previously thought to be impossible - but he's not a freak of nature.
To demonstrate that any human can learn his methods, Wim offered to teach Matt Shea and Daisy-May Hudson to climb a freezing cold mountain in their shorts without getting cold.
Buddhist breathing techniques repackaged for westerners? There's an app for that.

And yet you're posting as AC. You're just spouting absurdities, and you know it.
I know, I know, don't feed the trolls.

Reality is stranger than fiction. No one is asking you to stop eating or drinking. Go ahead, eat up the whole forest, drink up the whole sea.
"Absurdities" until you are converted to that way of thinking and then they are no longer absurdities to you and the rest of your kind calls you absurd. Or do you follow the "normal person" doctrine exactly?
Posting as AC neither adds nor subtracts from any argument.
