I was born in Innsbruck, my father was a historian, was a professor at the University, was blind. This was decisive, and as Professor Blinder is only now. I'm so grown up in a house with a science and art .. And these were the directions .. I wanted to turn around even in the study. I'm practically become a scientist, is related to the mountains. For my father, yes, as long as he has seen - .. he lost in World War II his eyesight - was an avid climber, and he has infected me so completely. And so, uh, uh, was climbing and climbing for me then so be heaven on earth. When I was wounded in the war very difficult, they said: you can forget the mountains "then win again anyway, which of course was an experience to unimaginable!
