Who am I?

Eli Dahan, 46, married to Iris and father of five. Lecturer, Bible and math teacher at Boyar High School. In the lecture "248 Hours" I will tell the story of my survival in Venezuela, for 248 hours, while mortally injured, after falling from a 30-meter cliff.

I will talk about coping with impossible conditions, the decisions I made in real time that saved my life, the choice to save myself, the struggle between reality and imagination, and the changes that occurred in my life after rehabilitation. In the lecture, I will focus on decision-making, mental flexibility in extreme situations, goal setting, and developing mental resilience.

The lecture is suitable for schools (high school, middle school, and elementary school students), soldiers before/after discharge, private events, team building days, assisted living, workers' committees, municipalities, and local authorities.
