TEDxAmsterdam - Wim Hof - 11/30/10 

then they beg to get the secret...

what a speech, but a true one tho

Shut up

Well said Jolly Herb!

Thank you brother ! :) I agree 100%. Thanks to mr Wim !

I see the the audience laughing with not at Hof

Sad reallty ... Are you aware of any medicine that could cure idiosity? I might need it before i graduate.

So does the suspicious person who figures it's a distraction.

What a nice quote, love it

My cat always does that when i point to something😂

Exactly

Truth!

Exactly,he truly does the work and science

he was cold blooded literally

THISSS

I don't think they are laughing to make fun of him but rather to make an awkward situation feel "not awkward". It's a simple way to tell the other that we're not bothered and it's okay. Imagine all of them sitting there in silence and watching him and others struggle to get him out of that box, making him feel more awkwardness of the situation.

It's just same everywhere. Wim is practice guy he do things and have his own experiences that was proven even by science today. People don't like that because they like illusions and stories not a reality. If somebody tell them it's a fake or some kind of cheat they would believe that because it's better for them to believe then actually sit on their asses for a 10 minutes a day and try it for themselves that's all it takes. Peoples instead of doing something choose to believe and those believes are just pure illusions that are controlling their life's. Wim methods works, i do practice them every day and from a guy that was sick every month is now a guy who didn't see doctor for 2 years. I'm glad for that.

@@thechosenone729 Exactly. Wim made an amazing discovery and i know by trying that his method is genuine. People just like to put limits on everything because they can't overlook that limit.

A lot of scientists were at first treated as a bunch of crazy lunatics who didn't know what they were talking about. Just wait my friend.

No one is laughing at him

Yeaah, I mean, at 13:00 It seems that Wim is struggling with the cold (That's completely normal, even if that's something that he has done a lot), and this little bitch is struggling with his laugh.

I'm surprised they even hosted this presentation take place before soo many people. Oh i forgot N.W.O wasn't as obvious back in the 2k10

@@aljazzizek7496 its obvious now lol

Or cost them, lol. Current body count: 15

+Cole Smith That sounds like a good way to kill brain cells

+Alpha Machina And how do you know this method "propery oxgenates" your blood? I don't see any evidence of that or the short/long term effects of this method

+Alpha Machina ya everything i read says he's actually lowering the amount of co2 in his blood, tricking his brain into thinking he doesnt need to breathe, there is definately risks involved but no he is not actually loading his blood with extra o2

+Ryan Clark look it up. Aside from his accomplishments being evidence, and the people he trains also accomplishing them, Yale and the Journal of psychosomatic medicine have published papers on him. Search 'voluntary activation of the sympathetic nervous system and attenuation of the innate immune response in humans'

+Ryan Clark Your a fucking idiot... meditation helps strengthen your neurological connections, greater memory, ect... You really think this is the result of lost brain cells moron? Why don't you test something yourself before knocking it fucking idiot.

It is only language. Never feel sorry. Danes speak both English and Danish. At a heightened adrenal state bilingual people need to stop, focus and transmute energy into language. When the mind focuses on the resetting core functions , language gets lost a bit since its secondary to survival. Love and light in Neuroscience!

@@reginavictoria8816 Not trying to be rude but Wim is Dutch, not Danish.

I don’t think he was making fun. I think he was trying to fill in the silence with humor.

It was not traumatizing, he is precisely very aware people are blocked into their potential and thats precisely his mission, but he needs to keep the cool with people missundersanding him or else hes gona have even worse of an impresion. Its saddening if anything, but nothing he or I didnt know, thats precisely what he is trying to help with.

No he does not feel that.

Right. They want to discredit him.

VERY TRUE.

Yes, the classic misleading from the mainstream media.

For this reason I am out

My favorite part was after the marathon he rehydrated with beer

@@jonsmith7667 really?

Hes uniqueness Unbelievable

@@jonsmith7667 and before the marathon he hydrated with strong coffee:)

He's like an Indian yogi of old...

People are idiots

There's no 'breakthough', they still have no idea how wim says warm and have learned nothing from it. Wim himself is pretty much a hippy who has no scientific understanding of how his body can resist the cold, and the spectacle of putting him in ice on stage for only a few minutes, WITHOUT monitoring his temperature, was purely spectacle. I'd have laughed at the amateur way this talk was put together.

+Adam Fisher you very wrong you read his pdfs?

So medical breakthroughs and levity are mutually exclusive for some reason?

dutch dont take people like him serious...

k. g exactly!

Yes, this presentation was rather a mockery of Wim's work.

I agree with you, but Wim does not respond to this in any frustration and he sets an example to the rest of us to just do it and everything is OK!!!’

Larry Ellis indeed

Seems like Wim has a lot of groupies. Let's hope he is wise enough to confront his unctuous disciples so we won't have another religion/cult that the world doesn't need. So let me ask you guys a question (or two). Why do you think Wim cooperates with scientists and clowns? Which role does this play when we talk about "unity"?

totally agree

agreed, arrogant, respect and appreciate Wim.

I don't think so. I think some clowns advanced to legendary clowns.

@@peterparker-pd9xg I am an Earthling and I have absolutely no idea who the clown is, none, zero...who is this legend? Just so I know to keep an eye out when rumaging through the bargain bucket of DVD's for £1 in the petrol garage.

not sure what you mean, the commentator was funny and made the whole thing even better

Wim is a LEDGEND OF LEGENDS! Thanks God I found him

@@linccnil At first I found him funny whilst Wim was getting out of the box but when Wim was talking, it felt as though he was being mocked by all the laughter of the audience and the "comedian". It was awful imo

How does one approach this wisdom? As I am very interested.

Justin Payette They said it tummo meditation, actually any kind of meditation will teach you a lot about yourself and give you a better control of your own body

Alfred Parkinson I swear, they're so fucking disrespectful! They laughed at him while he was explaining shit smh

I never cease to learn that people are stuck in their patterns of stupidity.

Alfred Parkinson Because many religions proved to be corrupt and many things in this society proved to be uncertain, people cannot believe such incredible things. This makse me think very serious on all people saying that there is a group ( most call it illuminati ) trying to make the ordinary human being stay stupid, limitng them for seeing a new world, the real world.

+Mark Wilson then watch/read all the other media which Wim Hoff has appeared. He didnt' need Ted but used it as another outlet to spread this to others

I think all the laughter is almost a grimace because they don't understand what they just saw and how simple it is

He only ruined it fo idiots. Otherwise only ruined himself.

No, the researcher did... The clown just took the lead.

One of my favorite if not favorite podcast of all time. Truly inspiring!

+David Li Sometime in 2009 I stumbled upon the Joe Rogan Experiance when he was still unheard of, I started telling people about the podcast and how it would change peoples lives. I've listened to almost every podcast but without doubt # 710 is the most important and immediately useful and beneficial. I've started the Wim Hof method yesterday and excited to purchase his book, Becoming The Iceman.

I went ahead and watched his vice documentary right after the podcast and tried the breathing method before i went to sleep. I too struggle with depression so this podcast really hit home. I too hope that it will help me on my journey of healing and to be able to inspire others as well. It's amazing what our natural body is really capable of.

+Jim Coady Same. I'm getting sick of the comedian guests. He needs more scientists, doctors, and people with an informative message on the show. Way more entertaining than the entertainment professionals he usually has on. I tried the breathing method and got tingles all over my body.

+crcaccounts Same page. Sometime in late 2009 I stumbled upon the Joe Show and started listening with interest because it was the first time I'd heard anyone talking without pretense or an agenda. Didn't even know what a podcast was then, just clicked on some shit and got to Joe and Redban. Back then they sat on a sofa with a sign behind them that read, "make me hard". Sometimes they would wear big watches and Joe always wore long sleeves because I think he was a little self conscious of his tattoos then or how they would come across to the audience. A couple of times they wore goofy costumes and experimented with hats. Joe also talked down much more to Redban who was more like a paid flunky or a personal assistant and hadn't come into his own yet as a podfather. I left a long comment after JRE#1 and nobody ever responded to it but I still kept listening to this very day and told everyone I knew to listen because this was something important. I've watched the show evolve from a buddy chat into what I think history will paint as some of the most inspiring, important interviews with the greatest people of our time. However, I don't need to listen to many of the comedians , porn stars or musicians because I'm not getting information that can change my situation immediately, today for the better. With Wim Hof it's different. The truth rang through instantly, I started the breathing exercises, have had 4 cold showers and have ordered the book, Becoming The Iceman, and it will arrive in 3 days because I paid more for shipping than the cost of the book. This is a life changer for me and couldn't have come at a better time.

Almost tears.

true...

Yea but Farmaceutic mafia does not want you to do that.

Why didnt they have an exit plan to get out of the box?

+Michael Giraldo Ridicule is always a great method to make those comfortable who may feel inadequate from examples of greatness. Or diversity.

+Michael Giraldo yeah that comedian was horrible. he doesn't honor Wim Hof the way a host ought to

+Shelley McGee Yeah, it was kinda sad to see. And if he truly was to try to convey that all was ok, then maybe it would be better if it didn't seem like he was about to shit himself on stage. Turned the crowds vibe in all sort of directions. Panic attack maybe?

+Michael Giraldo Yeah he is ridiculous !

+Michael Giraldo GREAT QUESTION.

time stamp the interruption or heckling you're referring to

***** 13:08

When I get out of a warm shower I feel cold, when I get out of a cold shower I feel warm

+Asa Hamada Is that a country song?

+Buck Shot lol from frozen

:'D

That sounds familiar. Frozen?

What happened?

Yes what happened?

I have had 10 years PTSD and the wim hof method gave me a new life!

ExoScience been there stay strong 💪

@@crackflush thank you, you also!

connie golden he stroked his ego

Its not just you, that host is an arrogant yet close-minded d..ck

It should have been presented as a scientific study into how extraordinary this is. They should have talked about how he taught the Wim Hof method to a group to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro in two days wearing only T-shirts and shorts. They should have talked about the entire “Wim Hof Method” and how it works from a scientific perspective while he was in the ice. Could’ve been one of the top Ted Talks if the presentation had presenters had really researched and understood what this man’s abilities truly encompasses.

idiot host. I want to know HOW more than WHY.

Wim brings it home though. Fuckin ay

I see you feel unsatisfied with the interviewer. When I watched the video I enjoyed the lightness and contrast of the subject and humor intertwined. I did not get any negative feelings whatsoever. The interviewer made me laugh yet be engaged and interested in Wim Hof, and put a bit of perspective just by how different they were. Engaging in many ways. I did read a lot of comments, however, most people seem to call the interviewer names. Some wrote, they know he was not feeling respect towards Wim Hof. I did not feel that at all and was surprised to read all the negative notes. I was expecting people to be enthusiastic about the interviewer. Also, we would have to check with him to find out if the interviewer was experiencing respect for Wim Hof, and how Wim himself was experiencing it. I find it rather useless to try and fill in other people's feelings, without asking them. It might very well be that there is a cultural difference. Being dutch, maybe I experience a feeling of disrespect in different situations from, say, people from the United States. It's a shame so many people seem to get distracted by the negative feeling that arrises from the friction, from someone acting or not acting the way they want.

@@TubeUil I totally understand you. I had the exact same feeling. I didn't think Wim took the funny attitude of the interviewer in a bad way either. I feel sad people got this angry reaction. Maybe our views of the world (and ourselves) is what matter most when judging situations like this.

perkyporkpie I just started to investigate this breathing tech and was wondering if it helps TMD. So it has helped you.

+CrimsonCorona10 The knowledge was forbidden to be shared with outsiders, so yeah, it was a mystery to 99% of humans.

You should do it too, I started doing it a year ago and it has really helped me build up my immune system against cold

@@nasifshah5691 I do 🤍✨

Nah, there's a million things he could've said other than jokes. I could've stood up there and said more constructive things than him, even without rehearsing. The host did a terrible job and was trying to be the center of attention, like a spoiled brat talking back to his teacher with extra confidence due to the whole classroom laughing with him. It's childish behavior, and the faces he makes at 13:05 show that he had no intention of being respectful.

How was?

it had to be cause this stuff is literally "out of the box" level
