The World Record Paddleboarder Reforming the Prison System with Adventurer & Consultant at Penal Reform Solutions, David Haze #41
Many of us have lost our sense of freedom and passion for adventure, succumbing to the pressures of modern life. This is a sentiment vouched by David Haze, who has learned this as a result of his extraordinary journey.

David opens up on Extrology to share the highs and lows, how he’s channelling his energy into paddleboarding world records, the reforms we need to make to the prison system, and much more…
