Back to All Events
Chris Waddell, a decorated Paralympic sit-skier, wheelchair track athlete, and NBC Sports host, was a promising collegiate skier before a life-altering accident left him paralyzed from the waist down. Refusing to be defined by limitation, he went on to make history on September 30, 2009, becoming the first paraplegic to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro—nearly entirely unassisted. This inspiring documentary captures not just the physical feat of summiting the 19,340-foot peak, but the heart, determination, and perspective that fuel Waddell’s mission to “see the world positively” through his One Revolution Foundation. A powerful story of perseverance and possibility. A Q&A follows the film. Presented in partnership with Thrive.
