Jamie Andrew

In January 1999 mountaineers Jamie Andrew and Jamie Fisher were trapped for five nights on the storm-bound icy summit of a French mountain. Their rescue, which was one of the most dramatic in the history of the Alps, came only hours too late to save Fisher. Andrew, despite suffering hypothermia and appalling frostbite, survived. Days later his hands and feet were amputated.
For many this fate would have meant the end of all hope, but not for Jamie. Since losing his hands and feet he has learned to walk again, taken up skiing, run a marathon, and returned to climb once more in the mountains that he loves so much.
Jamie Andrew brings his incredible story of determination and courage to the Opera House. It is nothing short of inspirational.
