Who is Wim Hof? It’s possible you haven’t heard his name but it’s unlikely you haven’t heard of his legendary acts. Acts of running half-marathons barefoot on snow and ice. Of sitting for hours in a tub of ice up to his neck. Of climbing Everest in shorts and no t-shirt. Of swimming half the length of a football field under the ice of a frozen-over lake. His name is Wim Hof, but he is called The Iceman.
