Climbing Took Jim Davidson's Best Friend, But Taught Him Resilience
Listen now
Description
Jim Davidson and Mike Price, two friends and experienced climbing partners, summited Mount Rainier on June 21, 1992. As they descended, a hidden snowbridge collapsed beneath Jim’s feet and dropped him into a large glacial crevasse. Connected to Jim by the climbing rope, Mike tried to stop the fall but couldn’t. In a heartbreaking conversation, Jim shares this painful memory with Ant - and how loss, resilience and the strength to survive has shaped not only that fateful day, but the rest of his life.  LINKS Find our more about Jim Davidson and his books,The Ledge and The Next Everest on his website https://www.speakingofadventure.com/  Want to see Ant live on stage?
