Adam Greentree Nearly Died and Had to Be Emergency Rescued from the New Zealand Mountains

Adam "I slipped off a boulder and into an icy river." Joe "Did you feel the benefits of cold shock proteins and dopamine?" Adam "What? No. I almost died mate!" Joe "Jamie, pull up cold plunge health benefits for Adam, please."

As a New Zealander who grew up in the mountains of the South Island and who has hiked back country all over the world, the region he’s talking about is no joke. Glad he’s all good. Too many story’s of foreigners not taking the weather and terrain of New Zealand seriously.

Shout out to our emergency services here in NZ. Legends.

Kudos to Joe for just letting Adam tell his story, enthralling. He's a wonderful host, and listener

"Adrenaline's just goin sick' Gotta love an Aussie storyteller

Greentree has to be up there with one of the best guests on JRE.

Kiwi here, own country is unforgiving. Never go anywhere without a personal locator beacon ! You can have 4 seasons in one day, you can get lost very easily, mountains are treacherous, you won’t see another person for days. You might not have bears or snakes but the country itself has to be respected!

Stories like this, as a kiwi, really hit home in terns of the dangers of our wild backcountry

Shout out to our NZ rescue persons!!

This story was better than any movie I've watched on Netflix this year
