Wim Hof Biopic Halted Amid Serious Domestic Abuse Allegations

The Dutch 'Iceman' faces accusations from his former partner and children, leading to legal battles and a pause in film production.

Wim Hof, known for his extreme cold endurance, is accused of physical and verbal abuse by his former partner Caroline and her children.
The allegations, which Hof denies, include years of domestic violence, leading to a temporary halt in the production of his biopic starring Joseph Fiennes.
Caroline claims Hof physically attacked her while pregnant and abused her children, with incidents supported by police reports and court documents.
Hof has filed complaints for defamation and slander, asserting that the accusations are exaggerated and motivated by jealousy and bitterness.
Despite the controversy, Hof's method of cold immersion and breathing exercises remains popular, though it has faced criticism regarding safety risks.
