Doing the Impossible, swallowing the sword, cutting through fear | Dan Meyer | TEDxMaastricht

Did you ever want to become a superhero, do the impossible and change the world?

As humans, we’re hard-wired for fear – to flee, fight or freeze in the face of danger. But can we learn to face our fears and overcome failure to do the impossible? Dan Meyer believes no matter how extreme our fears or how wild our dreams, we each have the potential to overcome our fears to become superheroes, do the impossible and change the world.

Director of a humanitarian aid agency in Kazakhstan, Meyer shares how he overcame a childhood of extreme fears, social anxiety disorder and bullying to do superhuman feats, become a finalist on America's Got Talent, win the 2007 Ig Nobel Prize in Medicine at Harvard, and become a 40x world record holder and world’s leading expert in one of the world's oldest and most dangerous arts - sword swallowing - and passionate about inspiring people to do the impossible in THEIR lives.

In this surprising and revealing TED talk, Meyer takes the audience on his journey from extreme fears to feats, wimp to world record holder, loser to Ig Nobel Prize winner and quitter to finalist on America's Got Talent. He reveals secrets behind the ancient art and science of sword swallowing, and describes his quest to cut through fear to overcome failure and the limitations of the human body to perform superhuman feats, do the impossible and change the world. He reveals tips on how YOU can do the impossible in YOUR life, and in a surprising ending, he attempts to do the impossible right before your eyes.
