WEEKEND WATCH: Tempting Fear -Salomon Freeski TV

A nice long half an hour look at what goes through the mind of athlete who constantly lives his life on the edge, Sweden's Adventurer of the Year, mountaineer and skier Andreas Fransson.

Over the past 3 years he's logged first descents in a half-dozen countries, battled back to life from an accident that nearly killed him, and become the most talked about skier in the epicenter of all things extreme — Chamonix, France.

What makes Andreas most intriguing, however, are his thoughtful musings on meaning from a life on the edge – a willingness to enter mental spaces that few have ever experienced.

In Tempting Fear Sweden's soft-spoken Adventurer of the Year explores a place in which fear overwhelms all emotions, playing both friend and enemy in a pas de deux where death lies just one misstep away.
