The Coldest Night: Rob Gering's 12-Hour Fight for Survival
In this episode of Crux True Survival Stories, host Kaycee McIntosh interviews Rob Gering, who recounts his harrowing experience of surviving a snowmobile crash in subzero temperatures in northern Wisconsin. On a frigid February night, Rob was left immobilized with multiple broken bones and faced down in the snow for over 12 hours. His survival hinged on a lost glove and the sharp observation of a fellow snowmobiler. Join us as Rob details his journey from near death to recovery and the profound lessons learned about life, purpose, and human connection.
