WHAT HAPPENED IN INDIA
- First day they had a press conference
- Next day was the hike
- This hike was incredibly intense, harder than really steep American mountains
- Hundreds of people hiking across crazy terrain, over these root bridges
- Vinnie had to get sugar in him to undo the bonk
- Dehydration is harder to undo than the bonk
- Andy had a cramp when he took in the sugar, and the cramp spread to both of his legs in every muscle
- Villagers helped massage Andy as he became more and more afraid which calmed him down
- People started getting water down to Andy which eventually helped him enough so that he and Vinnie did not have to stay the night in the canyon
- INCREDIBLY magical, beautiful place and the villagers were lovely
- Were brought to India by the great Terun Bajaj
- Attended his twin brother’s wedding
- Background noise in this podcast is composed of horns that constantly blow in India
- At 5:30am, Andy was woken up by amplified chanting
- It is a very religious/spiritual place
- Completely different culturally
- Ex: incense burning
- Day after this podcast was recorded, they went to New Delhi for Vinnie to go give more speeches
- Matt (and Vinnie) made 3min video of excerpts from Vinnie’s other speeches in India to show in New Delhi
- Sort of “best of”
- Matt (and Vinnie) made 3min video of excerpts from Vinnie’s other speeches in India to show in New Delhi
