And it is like the most incredible

leaping and spinning and twirling and just like you would jump in the air and the floor is either leaving you or it's coming to meet you and it's totally unpredictable and it was like totally thrilling you felt like a kid on a trampoline and all of this pent-up anxiety and dread that I'd had is just being expressed out of my body and it was amazing and

36 hours on the Drake Passage, and indeed, we had 40 knot winds and 20 to 25 foot waves, and I was totally fine.

I was just like, and even sleeping, you know, the boat is going like this.

I thought that was gonna disturb my sleep.

I slept like a baby in a cradle.

And I woke up the next morning, and it's completely still and silent, and I opened the windows from the cabin, and there's Antarctica in its pristine beauty.

We get in the Zodiac.

I'm in my stilt suit.

I got my stilts.

We're going to the landing.

There's a glacier.

So I've got my stilts put on, and someone is holding this hand.

Someone's holding that hand.

And my friend Eli, who's the client, is pushing my ass, and I'm climbing up a glacier in Antarctica wearing 2,000 mirrors and a pair of stilts.

And I get to the top, and it's like a brilliant sunny day.

I can see far into the distance on my stilts, and...

It's the colors and the penguins and the ice, and it was the most incredible workday of my life.

Thank you.
