Hope Hung in the Tree

Hope Hung in the Tree

Bob Kampstra is back on the show, and at 87 years old, he's proof that adventure doesn't retire. In this episode, Bob takes us into the woods and into a situation where his experience, quick thinking, and even his faith are put to the ultimate test. We discuss the crucial lessons he learned - why wearing a safety harness is non-negotiable and why someone should always know where you are. We also dive into the medical realities of extreme situations, exploring what happens to the human body when circulations is compromised and why slow, careful rescue is essential. Plus, whether you're a believer or not, you'll hear how hope and prayer played a role when it mattered most for Bob.


Bob's story is thrilling, sobering and inspiring- a reminder that life can throw you the unexpected at any age.
