SnagFilms has a great video of Reinhold Messner, the great climber ever in my opinion, in which he looks back on his illustrious career, with other climbing luminaries weighing in as well. The film is over 44 minutes in length, but includes some commercial breaks (great marketing with those “Covergirl” ads!) and serves as a great introduction to The Man or a reminder of how he changed mountaineering forever.
The film was originally done by Outside Films, who do a fantastic job telling Messner’s story. You can also find a larger version of the film by clicking here. Really great stuff. Not to be missed!
Thanks for the tip on this one Richard!!
