#16 David Lama – The Red Bull extreme mountaineer on teamwork, mental attitude and mistakes

Book: Zugspitze? Easy! Mount Everest? Running! Masherbrum? Almost impossible… No mountain is too high for my guest today, let alone too dangerous. Red Bull extreme mountaineer David Lama knows most of the mountains in the world, even the Himalayas like the back of his hand. At the same time, he knows how dangerous mountaineering can be – and yet he sticks to his big goal: to climb the Masherbrum one day. In his interview he talks about how a climber chooses his team, why the psyche is almost more important than fitness and how he defines “impossible” as an extreme athlete. Have fun!
