  1. I realized how far I have come as a trader since joining Mike's team last year when I go back and "binge watch" Mike's videos and compare them up against all the other so called "analyst" who are still pushing their "after the fact" narratives. No one compares to Mike when it comes to how hard he works to help other traders. Join our team if you can. Hoorah!!

  2. Chuck Norris ain't got sh!t on Mike Norman. The Grand Canyon is only a part Mike's "Total Gym". Just saying.

    congrats to reach your goal

  4. Thanks Mike for all of your phycological training to us.

  5. "When you're going through hell,just keep going"

    Well done?

  6. Gotta try this place Mike, hardcore backcountry, no weakness allowed. Once you get a few lakes back the fishing is the same as it was 500 years ago. I went 17 days solo one time. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJEQJEolJqU

  7. Well done ?

  8. Now you feel what our special forces troops go through.

  9. Well done mike. You are the man!

  10. Altitude at the rim of the Grand Canyon is 7,000' On top of the grueling challenge of your climb you probably have a dose of altitude sickness. You are an Ironman Mike!

  11. Even though we walk through the shadow of death!

  12. Be proud of yourself Mike, you did great!

    I went to the Grand Canyon years ago. There are literally signs at the top telling you to not try to hike in to the bottom and out the same day.
    To illustrate this- The temperature can drop below freezing at the bottom at night when it is warm on top. At least once a year, someone dies trying what Mike just did.
    It’s funny in a way, because when you look down from the top, because of the perspective, it looks like you could jog down to the bottom in about 20 minutes.

      I hurt my knee 2 weeks before my trip, had to use a cane at the time, and had to make it a car camping trip in the rim camp grounds.

  14. I went to the Grand Canyon. It was a nice hike. Very beautiful. I also recommend the Devil's Mount in Wyoming.

  15. You were in a very dangerous environment and some people that hike out there do die. Great accomplishment

    I am happy to hear you made it. And I hope that you will try it again, to compare the feeling. Then, you can really decide if you want to do it again.

  17. Mike I must say you do have a flair for the dramatic. You weren't forced to do that hike? You are lucky that the good Lord didn't decide to take you otherwise you would have been lunch for the vultures.

  18. we need proof u actually did it , no videos of the hike ??

  19. Nice mike

  20. Congrats, ps magnets are sticking to people who took the jab
