Summary
Hallucinations are crazy! I also did no research on why they happen. But in this episode, I will share some stories of my favorite hallucinations during thru-hikes, FKTs, and races. Some of my best stories, and the ones I share include seeing a safari figure, witches, chicken feet, a pirate ship, and a robot embedded in a cliff. I also used Chat GPT to recreate the images which is especially fun. A quick update on my health and the Kendrick and Drake beef.

"I've had some pretty good interactions with bears. Probably a good story for another episode."
"I've never had any fear of bears. I've actually had some pretty cool interactions with bears."
"Lately I've started plugging these into chat GPT and getting it to recreate the scenario or the scene that was in my mind."
Takeaways
Sleep deprivation during endurance races can lead to vivid hallucinations.
Hallucinations can take various forms, such as seeing safari figures, witches, objects embedded in cliffs, and animals like bears.
Recreating hallucination scenes using chat GPT can be a fun way to share the experience with others.
Listeners are invited to share ideas for future podcast topics.
