25 years ago, Kiwi sporting icon Mark Inglis made history, winning New Zealand’s first ever Paralympic Cycling medal at the 2000 Sydney Paralympic Games. 

But this isn’t the extent of his achievements – Inglis having survived 13 days trapped on Mount Cook and becoming the first person to summit Mount Everest as a double amputee. 

He told Piney that losing your legs is hard, but if you’re going to have them cut off at 23, the best person to do it to is a young mountaineer. 

“You live in an environment where if you make the right move, you might die, and so you have that ability to focus, and that’s what, you know, you’re able to bring along to this new situation.” 

“And so it wasn’t about, oh, I’ll never climb again, it’s just like, when can I climb again?”
