This video is a full-length documentary about Reinhold Messner, quite possibly the greatest mountaineer of all time. The 45+ minute film is a great introduction to Messner’s story for those who aren’t familiar with his impressive resume, and a good reminder of just what a trailblazer the Italian alpinist has been. In terms of setting the bar higher for those who followed, it’s hard to think of anyone who did more than this man. A true living legend.
