12 月 11 日是國際山區#day。 來自南蒂羅爾的 Reinhold Messner 是登山者的偶像。 五歲的時候，他和父親一起登上了第一座三千米的山峰。 1980 年，他是第一個登上地球最高峰珠穆朗瑪峰的人——在沒有瓶裝氧氣的情況下單槍匹馬。 即使在77歲的時候，他仍然繼續追隨著群山的呼喚。
有趣的事實：十多年來，他一直定期與安吉拉·默克爾 (Angela Merkel) 及其丈夫一起徒步旅行。 正如他最近所說，在她作為聯邦總理的任期結束後，梅斯納已經開始期待新的巡演。 “我更願意和她一起去遠足，而不是在她卸下壓力之後。”

Reinhold Andreas Messner (German pronunciation: [ˈʁaɪ̯nhɔlt ˈmɛsnɐ]) (born 17 September 1944) is an Italian mountaineer, explorer, and author from South Tyrol. He made the first solo ascent of Mount Everest and, along with Peter Habeler, the first ascent of Everest without supplemental oxygen. He was the first climber to ascend all fourteen peaks over 8,000 metres (26,000 ft) above sea level. Messner was the first to cross Antarctica and Greenland with neither snowmobiles nor dog sleds.[1] He also crossed the Gobi Desert alone.[2] Messner has published more than 80 books (only a quarter of which have been translated into English) about his experiences as a climber and explorer. In 2018, he received jointly with Krzysztof Wielicki the Princess of Asturias Award in the category of Sports.
