Love this movie by my fellow Explorers Club member.
Johan Ernst’s motto in life Everything is possible, the impossible just takes more time! has made him one of the world’s leading explorers having accomplished 50+ expeditions in 170+ countries. He has embarked on a journey from the North Pole to the South Pole, has climbed the Seven Summits, has flown a boat across Europe, cycled from Sweden to the Sahara Desert. Nilson achieved a Guinness Record title for his Three Poles Challenge expedition, and so much more.
Johan is an advocate against global warming and poverty, and a dedicated supporter and activist for nonviolence and world peace. He has constantly been attracting public attention through his philanthropic endeavors. He gives talks and lectures on environmental awareness and the state of the world as well as on motivation, inspiration and peak performance.
Nilson was elected Swedish President of the Everest Summiteers Association (ESA), and a member of The Explorers Club. He received the Medal of Honor from the Swedish Church. He is a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and is an Ambassador to the Snow Leopard Foundation based in Kazakhstan.
