Wigald Boning Marks 1,000 Days of Daily Outdoor Bathing

The comedian celebrates his milestone with colleague Bernhard Hoëcker joining for the first time and plans to share his journey in a Cologne lecture this summer.

Wigald Boning has completed 1,000 consecutive days of outdoor bathing, a commitment he began over two and a half years ago.
He plans to continue the routine, citing the enjoyment and fulfillment it brings to his life.
On this milestone day, Boning is joined by his colleague Bernhard Hoëcker, who is participating for the first time after previously declining.
Boning has adapted to challenges throughout his journey, occasionally substituting snow baths when water was unavailable.
He will celebrate this achievement with a public lecture in Cologne on June 30, 2025, sharing his experiences and connecting with others inspired by his practice.
