Okay, let me tell you a story about Yibo and the hammer that is now being posted everywhere. Liu Yanbang, Yibo's climbing instructor (with whom he climbed Mount Ganshika - Monkey Mountain- you remember, where they slept suspended from a rock) told it.

The instructor was looking for something Yibo could autograph for him and suggested a hammer that had its own story

The instructor was trying to plot a route and was forced to get stuck on a cliff in Pakistan - for 42 days due to bad weather. Their climbing group survived and brought this hammer with them. The hammer was left behind by a teacher who died, and he left the hammer behind himself, and when he gave it to Liu Laoshi, he asked to "pass it on." This hammer symbolizes his spirit. The teacher conveyed in this hammer the idea that in this world there would be no climbers without routes

The instructor asked Yibo to sign the hammer and told him the story of this hammer. Yibo refused to sign the hammer and said that he "could sign anywhere except this hammer. The significance of this hammer goes far beyond my name. I am not worthy of signing it with my name. Not only can I not sign it, we must use it next time. As you said, we must pass it on (to others)."

Yibo and his expressive face

"Everytime you undergo a role change, you have to start from zero again. To learn and to improve. It's as if you're starting from the base of a new mountain, challenging the summit. It requires both taking the lead and being led. From this, a lot can be learned. There is no path that is taken in vain." —Wang Yibo (Exploring the Unknown, ep 4)

Girls don’t want to academic validation. Girls don’t want to be called sexy.

Girls want to be a polar explorer in the 1870s, climbing the last of the icebreaker mainsails and watching the horizon crackle in a thousand shades of blue. The waves crashing in fractaling shards of salt and black-blue depths, anchors dragging across the closed eyes of leviathans long asleep. In the sky, the lines of longitude converge into a single thread, leading me on to the harsh, frozen places of beauty undefined where human beings were never meant to go.

Finally

[evenlis]

You want to feel everything that the you can, that the world allows and still be called human. 

What if the paths lead you away from the norm?Would you be accepted then?

The road less travelled by could be the road that is shunned.

Yibo has rarely looked this happy and vibrant and bubbly at a press event.

And so he should be. This is a very special project, one that he initiated himself and had been planning for a couple of years. It is a very unique, intimate, exciting project unlike anything we see in the current C-ent environment.

People are going to get a closer look at him - at his thoughts and feelings and life experience. They're going to get a closer look at some of the most challenging and dangerous sports in the world, they're going to see him and his guides pushing themselves past their limits, and they're going to see some beautiful, remote and fascinating locations.

We have been hearing about this project for a very long time. He'd been traveling to these mysterious locations, and it was known that he was working on something with Discovery Channel.

However, through all of that I never dared to dream we'd get a series like this. Most people thought that he would do one or two special episodes, not this big series where we got to see this side of him.

Yibo is living his best life. He is doing things on his own terms, carving his own path and pushing his limits. As he put it himself: expanding his horizons.

And this is who he is. He's not the sort of person to be satisfied with the same old grind that people in his industry and environment content themselves with. He wants to do new things and put himself into situations where he is challenged and stimulated.

It's the same with his stage the other night, too. Singing in English, a totally new song that is upbeat and sad at the same time - something nobody was expecting from him at that moment.

The only thing that we should expect from him is to be continually surprised and moved by his choices and direction. Everything that he has done for the past few years especially has shown his desire to live happily on his own terms. To grow and learn and try new things.

There is a reason why his smile has gotten bigger and bigger as time goes by.
