Adventure Unlimited: A Life on the Edge
Author: Helmut Linzbichler
Publisher: Sportwelt Verlag
ISBN: 3941297546
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
Extreme Sport distinguishes the life of Helmut Linzbichler. For decades he’s pursued ultrarunning, mountain climbing, climbing and skiing with a passion. He is the oldest European to stand on top of Everest, climbed all Seven Summits, ran 135 miles through Death Valley in the Badwater Ultramarathon, and 2,600 miles across the USA in the Transamerica run. Exploring his own limits physical as well as mental - is this Austrian’s lifeblood. To what extent is his childhood responsible for his longing for extremes? Was sport just a way for him to be noticed, a replacement for the father’s love he never experienced? Is his adventurous lifestyle more than anything else an escape after the death of his pregnant wife? How did Helmut’s life change as a result of his cancer diagnosis and nearly losing his life on Everest? “Adventure Unlimited” tells of intense passions and of striving toward seemingly unreachable goals. It’s a story of powerful successes, but also of dealing with defeat and calamity. True to the motto “Life is way too short for someday,” Helmut Linzbichler knows from his own experience: It is never too late to live your dreams - no matter how old you are.

Book Description
Technology of the Gods lays out the mind-bending evidence that long-lost civilizations had attained and even exceeded our "modern" level of advancement. Westerners have been taught that humankind has progressed along a straight-line path from the primitive past to the proficient present, but the hard, fast evidence (literally written in stone!) proves that the ancients had technologies we cannot even replicate today.

Adventure
Author: Christopher Schaberg
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN:
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
What is the meaning of “adventure” as we enter the third decade of the 21st century, after a global pandemic, social and geopolitical calamities, and accelerating environmental catastrophes? What stories are humans telling about wilderness, remote destinations, and the most difficult thoughts thinkable? Adventure is a pinball assortment of unexpected encounters. Each chapter entertains a specific project, fantasy, or activity that dabbles with adventure – and runs into limits. Subjects range from Mars exploration, commercial space tourism, and adventure consumerism, to the day-to-day experiences of living in a world increasingly impacted by climate change and environmental disasters. Taking a wide-angle view – at times personal, at others theoretical – Schaberg explores our ideas about adventure and their narrative, cultural, and philosophical underpinnings.
