Am Limit

Description

The highest peaks around the globe. Decisions in a fraction of a second. 14 world speed records. This is the life of Karl Egloff, the Swiss extreme mountaineer and speed climber. Raised in Ecuador, between two realities and cultures, his big goal is to set world records on all Seven Summits. But an armed attack on him and his family forces him to start over again. Who am I when everything is taken from me? This question confronts Karl Egloff as he must leave his homeland in Ecuador and face a new beginning in Switzerland. No networks, no sponsors, no prospects. With patience, discipline, and an unbreakable love for the mountains, he fights his way back into life and takes on new challenges on Mount Everest and the Seven Summits, which he aims to climb in record time. His life is a rollercoaster of emotions, with impressive successes, brutal setbacks, and countless moments of overcoming. In his very current live show, the professional athlete talks about the courage to reinvent oneself and the power to climb mountains faster than ever before. Because the true limits, he says, are not on the mountain but within us.
