Heroism takes many forms, has many faces. Wampler’s Ascent is a story of Steve Wampler’s legendary climb up the biggest rock face in the world, El Capitan in Yosemite, twice the height of the Empire State Building. This valiant effort took 20,000 pull-ups climbing for 6 days and sleeping on the side of the mountain for 5 nights. Wampler is a husband, father… and has a severe form of Cerebral Palsy. In a story sure to rouse compassion, this athlete, who has the complete use of one limb, his right arm, and uses an electric wheelchair to get around, overcomes panic and terror using his steel will, guts and grit to show the power of the human force. This is a story of tenderness, warmth and the love of his wife and children that has the toughest soldiers crying. This is a feel-good story, which elicits delight and angst, dread and strength of character. Backbone and bravery.
