Let's see him pull a bus by connecting straps to nipple rings.

Interesting and apparently legit.

24:25 Teaching kids how to start hyperventilation and see colours and weird shapes, he must be something special!

[LordBerenger]

Been aware of Wim Hof and his method for a while. He does seem legit. Plus he has helped one of my favorite MMA fighters (Alistair Overeem) and he really seems to have changed due to it when fighting.

Still some people claim you're just depriving your brain out of oxygen and it could be dangerous in the long run while doing the breathing exercises.

Posted about this guy during one of Bjord's retarded meltdown threads. Joe Rogan had a good podcast/interview with him. As far as I understand it the breathing exercises are about flooding your brain/bloody with oxygen. Don't see where the deprivation part comes in, its the exact opposite.

I am about to buy the course, actually, when I have the money. 

There is a group on facebook, but it's facebook, so it's mostly cancer.

It's of course taken to less extremes than what Wim hof is doing but winter bathing is not an uncommon phenomenon here in Denmark, especially on the east coast of Sealand where I grew up. I think it's the same in other Nordic countries and Russia, often but not always connected to the sauna tradition.

This is a common thing in Finland.

Same here. Sauna is love, sauna is life.

[Angantyr]

Yes, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia aswell.

Picture looks nice, makes me want to jump in. By far prefer it to the current heat here, thinking of going to Lapland this Summer.

Russia takes it to a new plane, altogether.

A lot of people take it seriously in the UK as well. There are many people who go to lakes to swim during winter. A lot of seaside areas have Christmas Day swims in the sea as well to promote it.
