Chris Burkard X Ted Talks

See photographer Chris Burkard's TED talk on the joys of ice cold escapades.

And now surfing is even in mix of Ted Talks. Chris Burkard had shed light on his adventures to the coldest places on the planet. ”Anything that is worth pursuing is going to require us to suffer, just a little bit,” says surf photographer Chris Burkard, as he explains his obsession with the coldest, choppiest, most isolated beaches on earth. With jaw-dropping photos and stories of places few humans have ever seen — much less surfed — he draws us into his “personal crusade against the mundane.”
