In mountaineering terms Reinhold Messner has no equal, no peers, and no competition. I would love to hear his thoughts on Alex Honnold and his ability and accomplishments.
Too bad the host cut this short. Have a feeling that Reinhold would have been pleased to answer questions for hours and I would have enjoyed listening to him. Alas the "tourist" comments he made were no doubt nit music to the ears of many "modern day" cliners and that's where the sponsoring club gets most of their money...
He told everything about that. He was searching for a way down - his brother (weaker there) was waiting. When Reinhold came back the snow already brought the death to his brother - avalanche. That's his version - I would not know why I should question that.
I am german but I lived for many years outside from Germany wich changed my personal horizon and mind a bit in a good way.the germans are normaly good and honest and hard working people,but surely idiots are everywhere.you cant blame a country for some crazy idiots.
no normaly not,only Messner keeps the secret til the end of his days i guess so.who know's what happened back then.History listen people let this story and dark part of Messners life rest in peace.
right not directy he is from South Tyrol former Province in Austria now part of Northern Italy.But way back about 1200 years South Tyrol and Austria and Northern Italy with Rome included were part of the Roman German Empire.So he is a native german speaking citizen.
sierra hiker pure class with your question. He was beat up for years over this, then they found his brother and his location backed up Rheinholds story. But there are those of you that still refuse to let go. Of all the great questions you could ask, THAT is what you chose? Speaks volumes
he's so much fun to listen to...
So awesome to learn about the history of climbing.
Thanks for sharing,. This is inspiring and empowering for all generations
The most impressive: after all what he did he is still alive.
What a great vibrancy and smile. Remains a man's man.
LOVE MESSNER!!!! A BEAUTIFUL LEGEND!!!
Mr. Messner is the only legend I met in person.
absolutely essential to understand what mountaineering is all about
I like this man.True legend
Fantastic talk! Thanks Master Messner! Reality check for a lot of people.

He is mountain culture
Fascinating human being.

The small minds show up to express 'dislike'. Envy is all-consuming!
