Conquering Everest

View descriptionShare

Matthew Layton presents Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look at life from a low vision and blind point of view.

This week…

Matthew’s guest on this week’s show is an adventurer, a conqueror of summits and a positivity campaigner.

His name is Eric Weihenmayer

Erik was the first blind person to conquer Everest back in 2001. He’s also climbed the seven summits and kayaked the Colorado River.

However, Eric doesn’t see any of these as his most important achievement.

Next month he hosts the latest in his series of annual “No Barriers” summits - which are part of his mission to “empower people to shatter barriers, find their inner purpose, and contribute their very best to the world.”
