个人情况

维姆·霍夫是一名荷兰极端运动员，被称为“冰人”，因为他有能力抵御极度寒冷，同时，也是维姆·霍夫方法的发明者，保持着18项吉尼斯世界纪录。

Born on 20 April 1959, the Iceman Wim Hof first began experimenting with the extreme cold in 1976. He would sit outside in the snow for hours and would often sleep outdoors during the winter without a tent or a sleeping bag. Hof found that not only could he control his body temperature, but he could actually stay warm in very cold weather.

出生于1959年4月20日的冰人维姆·霍夫首先开始尝试极端寒冷是在1976年。他会在雪地里坐几个小时，冬天经常睡在户外，没有帐篷或睡袋。霍夫发现他不仅可以控制自己的体温，而且可以在非常寒冷的天气中保持温暖。

Knowing this, Hof has done some phenomenal things, including holding himself in ice water for nearly two hours, climbing Mount Qomolangma without a shirt on, and running a half marathon through the Namib Desert in Southern Africa without a drink of water.

知道这一点，霍夫做了一些非凡的事情，包括在冰水中坚持了近两个小时，不穿衬衫攀登珠穆朗玛峰，在不喝水的情况下，在南部非洲的纳米布沙漠中进行半程马拉松。

Over the years, Hof has earned 18 Guinness World Records titles because of his unusual ability to control his body and mind under extreme conditions. Hof has broken the record for the longest duration (持续时间) full body contact with ice for 15 times over the years. His best effort came in 2013 when he lasted 1 hour 53 minutes 2 seconds. But today, that record is held by Valerjan Romanovski (Poland) with a time of 3 hours 28 seconds.

多年来，霍夫赢得了18项吉尼斯世界纪录，因为他在极端条件下控制自己的身心的非凡能力。霍夫多年来打破了15次全身与冰接触时间最长的记录。他最好的成绩是在2013年，当时他持续了1小时53分2秒。但是现在，valerian Romanovski以3小时28秒的时间保持了这一记录。

Hof has used his website and world records to raise an understanding of the importance of cold therapy (疗法) and its physical and mental health benefits. Hof’s teachings about breathwork and the benefits of cold swims have attracted millions of followers worldwide. His story has encouraged people around the world to push their limits (极限) and achieve things they never thought were possible.
