this is one of the craziest true stories i’ve ever heard. 
it was a bit tough to follow at first due to the translation, and it was quite long. but i still really enjoyed it 


psa - do not watch the 2017 movie adaptation :(

Worth a read, though the story tends to drag on a bit, losing the reader at times. While his experiences are certainly amazing, the book could have done with a bit more editing.
