Ewa Wiśnierska the Paraglider - Special Guest Episode

What happens when an ordinary day of paragliding transforms into a battle against one of nature's most violent forces? Join Alice and Zach as they explore the extraordinary survival story of Ewa Wiśnierska, a champion paraglider who was literally sucked into a massive thunderstorm and carried to an altitude higher than Mount Everest. Discover how this elite athlete endured temperatures of minus 50 degrees, oxygen levels too thin to sustain consciousness, and violent hailstorms that should have proven fatal. Learn what happens to the human body when suddenly exposed to conditions more extreme than the "death zone" of high-altitude mountaineering—without specialized equipment or training. Buckle up for an incredible journey into the stratosphere and back.Sources:Wikipedia article on Ewa Wiśnierska"Not Today" podcast, Episode 141: "Straight To The Stratosphere"Find FINAL BOARDING CALL online:Website: finalboardingcallpodcast.comInstagram: @FinalBoardingCallPodFacebook: Final Boarding CallCredits: Final Boarding Call is hosted by Alice Stern and Zach Stemas, researched and written by Alice Stern, produced and edited by Alice Stern and Zach Stemas.
