Wim Hof was born into a frigid world. His was a traumatic birth, struggling out of the womb he shared with his twin into the cold hallway of a Dutch hospital. He almost suffocated. His simple, faithful mother made a vow to God that if He'd let her baby live, she would raise that baby to become a missionary.
As a teenager, Hof revisited that trauma. Turning the cold and the shortness of breath that almost took his life into a power for good, he started on a path that led him to fulfill his mother’s vow in a way she could never have imagined.
