Dan Cnossen had written off mountaineering after losing his legs in Afghanistan, but 60 Minutes was there to see his incredible ascent to the summit of Mount Kitzsteinhorn.
This week, 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley and his team traveled to Austria to witness the healing power of mountain climbing.The Mountain Seed Foundation, founded by Marine veteran Nathan Schmidt, takes widows of the Ukrainian war and their children to new heights through mountaineering, teaching them skills on the ropes that will also give them strength, courage and resilience.
He rappelled down a rock wall, with Schmidt on belay, and hung upside down, to see if the harness would hold him given his different center of gravity. Schmidt and Cnossen were happy to see the experiment had worked. But the ultimate test for Dan Cnossen and the Ukrainian group was a steep ascent to the summit of Mount Kitzsteinhorn, at 10,508 feet above sea level.
