Season 2 Ep#10 - Maoist Rebels, Avalanches and The Pongmore Seed

from Doin' the Thing Podcast · host Phillip Macko & Jason Madden

Held at gunpoint, bombs strapped to the legs of soldiers surrounding you, would you agree to the extortion demands made of you by the Maoist rebels holding you, or would you call their commander a dog? Staring down the face of an avalanche bearing down on you with brutal force, would you run, or toss rice in its path? Facing 50/50 odds of death, would you struggle to survive, or take the medicine that either will heal...or kill you? In 2003, Gary Guller led the largest team of persons with disabilities to reach Mt. Everest basecamp. He went on to summit, becoming the first person in history missing an arm to reach the top of the world - setting two world records along the journey.  These are his stories.
