Ariston Face Your Fear

The Book Against the Fear of One's Own Courage

Many people are trapped in a job they do well but do not enjoy. The lack of passion weighs on their spirits. They dream of radical change, but the path to it intimidates them.

Lukas Irmler, a multiple world record holder in slacklining, knows what it’s like to have an seemingly unattainable goal in sight. The path to it: a line several kilometers long and only a few centimeters wide. Below lies the abyss.

In his richly illustrated book, he shares his first steps and falls in the world of extreme sports. He talks about overcoming fear and the wings that grow from his successes. He describes the sudden clarity with which he finds a new profession and a calling for himself. His credo: Those who do what they love will inevitably excel at it, even if the first step is terrifying.

Overcome fears and realize dreams with the multiple world record holder in slacklining. A reading experience at the limit: richly illustrated for an extra thrill while reading. For fans of Jan Frodeno, Boris Herrmann, and Reinhold Messner. Those who do what they love will inevitably excel at it.
