Love the show, hate the show? Send us a text message!"Oh those early days. We started with a clothesline and carabiners, venturing onto cliffs with no adult supervision. Looking back, it's a miracle we survived" 🧗🏾😅Today, we travel to India 🇮🇳 to meet Mohit Oberoi, a man who turned his passion for adventure into a way of life. Ditch what you think you know about India! Mohit shows a side of that country that may surprise you. Growing up in the 80s, Mo and his friends were climbing pioneers, questing up cliffs outside Delhi with homemade gear because the sport simply wasn't established. But Mo didn't stop there! Ironman triathlons? Check. 💪 Swim the English Channel? Done. 🏊♂️ Ultra-runs across the Himalayas? You bet. 🏃♂️ With the spirit of a new learner, Mo learns new sports, and goes on to take them to their apex. His story isn't all smooth sailing – there have been injuries and setbacks. 🤕 Mo gets right back up, learns from his mistakes, and keeps going. Welcome to the world of Mo.
