Fifteen years ago, Dutchman Wim Hof achieved an unusual achievement.
The man has proven that he can withstand very low temperatures.
A resident of the Netherlands spent more than a hundred minutes in the snow.
Naturally, the compilers of the Guinness Book of Records took note of this achievement and included it in the reference book.
How Wim Hof Set a Record
The record was set on January 23, 2009.
That day, the Dutchman was completely buried in snow.
The man spent 1 hour, 42 minutes, 22 seconds in these conditions.
As a result, a record was set for the longest stay in the snow.
Of course, it is impossible to try to repeat Wim Hof's achievement (especially for unprepared people): it is very dangerous.
The fact is that lack of proper preparation can lead to tragedy.
And Wim Hof can be confidently called a man who trained gradually and for a very long time.
The man put a lot of effort into acquiring the ability to withstand extremely low temperatures.
It was not for nothing that Hof was nicknamed The Iceman .
