Tom Haig visited the University of Illinois to consider joining the diving team and stayed because of the educational opportunity.
After graduation, Tom and his brother took a unique trip to Italy and made "The Bridge to Venice Rule." The focus is on taking the more difficult route in life to live it to the fullest. After traveling the world as a professional diver, Tom was in an unfortunate biking accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down.
In this episode, we discuss all of this and more because the rule is still in effect, and Tom has not slowed down while he still treks the globe as a public speaker, documentarian, and consultant.
Due to time constraints, I had to leave out some of his adventures, including his Mas Bravos Award while Cliff Diving in Acapulco, a brief "prison stint," and his tours in Dubai and Oman...
You'll find all that goodness and some in his book "Global Nomad."
