One-Legged Man on a Mountain:balancing himself on a ledge of the Haute Saleve, near Geneva, Switzerland, is Roger Tschumi, 27-year-old one-legged Swiss mountain climber. When he was 19, Tschumi lost his right leg in an accident. Inventing a pair of special crutches, he was able to continue his favorite sport of skiing. Recently, because of his daring accomplishments in the Alps, films of his feats were featured in Swiss cinema homes.
