\"master\" <\/p>\n

NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 A man who calls himself a tantric master broke his own world record by standing engulfed in ice for 72 minutes.<\/p>\n

Wim Hof, 48, stood on a Manhattan street in a clear container filled with ice for an hour and 12 minutes Saturday.<\/p>\n

Hof said he survives by controlling his body temperature through tantric meditation. Tantra is an Eastern tradition of ritual and meditation said to bring followers closer to their chosen deities.<\/p>\n

Hof set the world record for full body ice contact endurance in 2004, when he immersed himself in ice for an hour and eight minutes.<\/p>\n

Hof’s feat kicked off BRAINWAVE, a five-month series of events in New York exploring how art, music, and meditation affect the brain.<\/p>\n
