In 2014, André Schurrle was a World Champion with Germany at the World Cup in Brazil, with 3 goals scored in 6 appearances. Today, 9 years later, he has already retired from football at just 29 years old after a last stint at Spartak Moscow and has found a new direction in his life: the Wim Hof method, one of the toughest endurance challenges in the world.
Yes, he climbed the Sniezka mountains, the highest point of the Czech Republic at 1,603 meters above sea level, with his torso exposed and he describes it on his Instagram:
"The last minutes I couldn't feel anything and I had to find something very deep within me to keep going. An experience I will never forget! -19 degrees, 100 km/h wind in our faces, heavy snow, and rain. What I learned... my body and I are stronger than I thought if I put my mind and soul into it I can do anything." 🔥
