ActingLes Conquérants de l'impossible - Portrait de René Desmaison

This episode is part of the series "The Conquerors of the Impossible (2/3)". From the 1950s to the 1980s, René Desmaison achieved a large number of "firsts". A specialist in normal routes (west face of Les Drus, Pilier du Freyney, Shroud...), he experienced a tragedy at the Grandes Jorasses, where his exceptional resistance allowed him to survive against all logic.

Beyond mountaineering, it is the spirit of adventure that has always inhabited him. A whole life devoted to mountaineering.
