If You Could Pick Someones Brain Over A Pint
Who would it be?
About 2 month ago this dude wouldnt be my answer but i know find his life fascinating and have read 3 of his books recently
The man who was the first to set foot in both poles
The man who ran 7 marathons in 6 days(not possible in 7 days like planned due to sunsets and rises) in 7 Continents, this after having a double heart bypass four months before
The man who failed climbing Everest due to the Altitude messing with his dicky ticker and immediatley set about climing the most dangerous climb in Europe as it wasnt as high but just as dangerous to make up for failing at Everest
The man who discovered the lost city of Imram in Oman
The man who went round the world on the polar axis (nobody else has done it)
And of course the man who amputated his frost bitten fingers with a jigsaw in his shed because the doctor would allow an operation.
Theres alot more. He may come across a stubborn b@stard but i suppose you have to be to do what he does. Hes also raised alomost 15m for charity over the years
The man in question. Sir Ranulph Twisleton-Wykeham-Fiennes, 3rd Baronet,
Or Ranulph Fiennes for short. What a life
