CONGRATULATION HERMAN MAIER, I just learned your story and it is really imporessive and VERY MOTIVATING. THANK YOUUUUU VERY MUCH.
I remember seeing this great comeback on TV, as Maier overcame a dense fog and won the gold medal in the Super-G. It's enough of a miracle that he overcame the crash in the downhill unharmed. The unsung heroes in this story, though, are his fellow countrymen, who rooted and pulled for him all the way.
A great story that showcases the Olympic spirit. Thanks for your comment!
I met him one he is such a nice and humble person, he deserves all this
I followed Hermannator's career in progress, while I was an avid International Skier & Club Racer > but not until you read his life story & see videos, do you realize just how MIRACULOUS his life & career was!
I love Skiing, I love Austria, this Man inspires me! My God can he ski
No one could ever beat hermann in his prime. A primal force!
wow....wow.....this is like life...sometimes you have to fall to gain strength and continue.....love it!!! great spirit!!!!
in 2014, the DFB invited Hermann to talk to the German Football Team about motivation, spirit and so on....the rest is history..Germany won the Wolrd Cup ;)
Hermann the best for all time !! Legend ...
No Fear in this Man!
this is some great story I must say..
Legend.
The Herminator in person!
Possibly the greatest skier of all time so far. Killy and Saier completing the podium.
Living legend!
did he not get at least a sprained shoulder?? old news...incredibly fit and trained dude from the wrong side of the RR tracks in Austria...true survivor...
The KING of downhill.
amazing and very good
(Very) strong is the Force with this one
I think the video should also show his second great olympic comeback: After he got knocked off a motorcycle in 2001 and almost loosing his lower leg (doctors were close to amputating), he came back to skiing and in the winter olympics in Torino 2006 he managed to win the silver medal in the Super G and the bronze medal in giant slalom!
Hermann die Legende Maier
THE HERMINATOR!!!
Лучший, из лучших ...
Legende
Goat
As child i wanted only this
Feb. 13th 1998, the day Hermann Maier became the „Herminator“
Best
And the best is the start of his career, he was the camera skier for TV, just for fun somebody took his time and it went out he'd won the competition if he had started.
That’s hilarious
@@logant44 Hilarious, because it‘s not quite true. He was a forerunner, not a camera skier. And he would have placed 12. if he were a contender. But that was still enough to give him a chance in the lower tier European Cup, and the rest is history…
@@lieutenantkoerschgen5714 That's how mythology happens!
Did he brake any bones in there?
No
Now the racers have blue paint so they can see better and better skis. Then it was how far you would push yourself
john Handfield you definitely have no idea how hard that sport is. They ride alot faster these days and are all fearlees. Blue lines do not ski fo them. Still Herminator is maybe the GOAT
What aboy this b
He died and came back lol😂
Whats this guy doing now?Back to laying bricks?
No, he's an actor for advertises and TV series now.
One of the first horrific crashes I saw when I was a kid. It still makes me cringe! LONG LIVE THE HERMINATOR!!!
