About event
Guest: Jozef Krištoffy, mountaineer
moderates: Ladislav Eliaš, Radio Regina Wednesday
About the event (organizes for schools):
Modern mountaineering pushes physical boundaries, but also creates space for respect for nature and development of ethical and moral attitudes. Film projection and interactive discussion of dilemmas that accompany extremely climbing performances. He climbed the hardest roads in the High Tatras, climbed the most difficult Tatra Hazard Hazard on a large church, exceptional in that it is extremely demanding not only technically but also mentally. Hazard is the peak of his 11-year-old climbing road full of adrenaline, beauty, knowledge. Jozef Krištoffy decided to climb, which respects the traditional mountaineering values: without the addition of threads and only with his security. The film thus opens the question of what means to push the limits in climbing and what ethical principles should be behind every decision in extreme conditions. Dilems in extreme situations: Climbing is not just about physical resistance and technical skills. The mountains are a place where character is verified on the edge of human possibilities. How to decide when it comes to life? When to give a helping hand to the injured fellow and when to prefer your own safety? Is there an unwritten "climbing code" that determines the correct action in critical situations?
. Ethics and exhaustion: Can exhaustion justify unethical behavior? How does the physical and mental stress affect the moral decision of climbers? How to ensure that team trust persists at critical moments?
. Commercial expeditions vs. Traditional mountaineering: How did he change the commercial boom of mountaineering the value and ethics of this sport?
. What dilemmas brings the use of paid sash and guides? Is it possible to combine traditional mountaineering values to a modern trend of commercial expeditions? Can mountaineering be sustainable also in the era of mass tourism?
. Patterns and social responsibilities: have international icons such as Reinhold Messner, responsibility to be a model not only in technical performances, but also in ethical behavior? How can modern mountaineering shape the values and attitudes of future generations?
. Climbing and family: What dilemmas arise if a climber is undergoing serious risks that can hit his loved ones? Where is the border between personal passion and family responsibility?
