The stuff this guy did is grotesque and gruesome in the extreme and is sometimes outlined in graphic detail and is therefore not for the faint-hearted. The Iceman” Wim Hof has not only helped advance scientific understanding, but also accomplished extraordinary feats of human endurance, including 21 Guinness World Records. e. a half-naked, weather-beaten, and forehead paint-streaked classical guru—he found that he had to wade through a sea of charlatans and shysters while never finding the true masters who are likely hidden away in caves in the Himalayas. Worse, he took to beating Florian and Richard for both real and imagined infractions, and both boys grew to fear and dread their father, becoming sullen and quiet, painfully shy. Anna had little memory of her own parents; the only memories she had of her childhood were bad ones—beatings and abuse.
