00:45:19 - Conclusion and Sasquatch === Plunge was born out of a garage in 2020 when the world shut down. There were a lot of things Michael Garrett—and the rest of us—didn't know. But what he did know was COVID-19 shut down his brick-and-mortar float spa business, and he was determined to build the world’s best cold plunge tub. Enlisting the help of his dad, he got to work. After countless iterations and improvements, he knew they had created something truly special. A friendship turned into a powerful partnership when Ryan Duey came on board. Michael and Ryan share a passion for wellness, giving back, and changing lives through cold water therapy. Three years, an appearance on Shark Tank, and a 150,000 sq ft. warehouse later, they’re still following that passion, crafting innovative cold plunge tubs and high-heat saunas in Sacramento, California.Connect with Cold Plunge
