- When I went blind, there was a time where you sort of regret and stuff like that, but... eventually, I think I learned that you gotta sort of say goodbye to that sighted life. And kinda take on a new life and, you know, Part ot you dies, a part of you is reborn.

Erik Weihenmayer（ 埃里克·韦亨麦尔），美国盲人登山家。

出生的时候得了一种罕见的叫做“retinoschisis”（视网膜裂）的眼疾，之后状况逐渐恶化，并发展为青光眼。他的父亲Ed Weihenmayer——一位越战退伍军人——鼓励他去积极挑战盲人所不能做的事情。Erik Weihenmayer少年的时候经常和兄弟野营，这成为了他日后从事高山攀登探险的种子。Erik Weihenmayer在学习如何进出校园的同时，也在努力着依靠自己的力量在户外活动。

2001年5月24日，从尼泊尔一侧、沿南坡传统线路，Erik Weihenmayer成功地站在了珠穆朗玛峰的最高点，成为第一个登顶珠峰的盲人。

“你不是去征服山，”Erik说，“你致力于攀登，在山打盹的时候悄悄接近她。如果你不能遵守规则，你将垮掉。我喜欢那种成为大自然一部分的感受，而不是与她分离。”
