Tom Haig

<p>Tom Haig visited the University of Illinois to consider joining the diving team and stayed because of the educational opportunity.</p>

<p>After graduation, Tom and his brother took a unique trip to Italy, and they made &quot;The Bridge to Venice Rule.&quot; The focus is on taking the more difficult route in life to live it to the fullest. After traveling the world as a professional diver, Tom was in an unfortunate biking accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down. </p>

<p>In this episode, we discuss all of this and more because the rule is still in effect, and Tom has not slowed down while he still treks the globe as a public speaker, documentarian, and consultant. </p>

<p>Due to time constraints, I had to leave out some of his adventures, including his Mas Bravos Award while Cliff Diving in Acapulco, a brief &quot;prison stint,&quot; and his tours in Dubai and Oman...</p>

<p>You&#39;ll find all of that goodness and then some in his book &quot;Global Nomad.&quot;</p>
