\u00c4ven om G\u00f6ran Kropp l\u00e4mnade oss bara 35 \u00e5r gammal, lyckades han g\u00f6ra fantastiska saker som de flesta av oss bara kan dr\u00f6mma om. G\u00f6rans fascination av bergskl\u00e4ttring s\u00e4gs ha b\u00f6rjat redan 1972 n\u00e4r han bara var sex \u00e5r gammal, och hans far tog med honom p\u00e5 vandring till norska Galdh\u00f8piggen, Skandinaviens h\u00f6gsta berg p\u00e5 2 469 meter \u00f6ver havet. Det satte ig\u00e5ng hans \u201cbesatthet av berg\u201d som han kallade det och han fortsatte att bestiga Lenin Peak, Iliniza Sur, Cotopaxi, Illimani, Huayna Potosi, Muztagh Tower, Pik Pobeda, Illampu och m\u00e5nga fler.<\/strong>
\n<\/p>\n

Som titeln avsl\u00f6jar, best\u00e4mde sig Kropp en solig dag den 16 oktober 1995 f\u00f6r att hoppa p\u00e5 sin Crescent Ultima och l\u00e4mna Stockholm f\u00f6r Nepal. G\u00f6ran startade sin resa med \u00f6ver 100 kg utrustning och mat, och efter n\u00e4rmare 13 000 km och till synes o\u00e4ndliga dagar av ensamhet, kom han slutligen till Mount Everest Base Camp i april 1996.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Det var inte bara den h\u00e4r resan som var galen, hans Mount Everest-upplevelse var \u00e4nnu mer extrem. F\u00f6r att citera John Rothchild som talade om Kropps erfarenhet i en dokument\u00e4r: ”Innan Kropp hade mer \u00e4n 900 personer bestigit Mount Everest den enkla v\u00e4gen (med syrgastuber) och ett f\u00e5tal hade g\u00e5tt macho-v\u00e4gen (utan syrgastuber) men ingen hade gjort det p\u00e5 super-macho-s\u00e4ttet (utan syrgas, ingen tygp\u00e5se fr\u00e5n hyres-a-yak, ingen b\u00e4rhj\u00e4lp fr\u00e5n Sherpas, ingen mat fr\u00e5n den v\u00e4lsorterade m\u00e4sshallen, ingen flygresa till Katmandu). Kropp antog utmaningen. Han cyklade till Everest, bar sin egna utrustning till basl\u00e4gret, kl\u00e4ttrade upp f\u00f6r berget helt sj\u00e4lv utan extra syre, n\u00e5dde toppen och cyklade sedan hem. ”<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

F\u00f6rst\u00e5r du nu smeknamnet ”Galne Svensken”?<\/span><\/p>\n

Rothchild beskriver det \u00e5terigen med de r\u00e4tta orden. ”F\u00f6r att \u00f6vertr\u00e4ffa Kropp m\u00e5ste du kl\u00e4ttra Everest bakl\u00e4nges.” Och vad var Kropps kommentar p\u00e5 denna kr\u00e4vande och farliga resa? ”Jag ville ha ett \u00e4ventyr som aldrig tidigare sk\u00e5dats.” Vi l\u00e5ter dig avg\u00f6ra hans mentala h\u00e4lsa. Men faktum \u00e4r att han inte bara var en galning som ville anstr\u00e4nga sig till d\u00f6ds. Innan han kl\u00e4ttrade upp till toppen, v\u00e4nde han en g\u00e5ng tillbaka bara 350 meter ifr\u00e5n, eftersom det blev m\u00f6rkt och f\u00f6r sent f\u00f6r att han skulle kunna \u00e5terv\u00e4nda s\u00e4kert.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Tyv\u00e4rr dog Kropp i en kl\u00e4ttringsolycka p\u00e5 kl\u00e4ttringsleden \u201cAir Guitar\u201d n\u00e4ra Frenchman Coulee i Vantage, Washington den 30 september 2002. Han tappade f\u00e4stet och fallet d\u00f6dade honom omedelbart. Han blev bara 35 men, som vi sa ovan lyckades G\u00f6ran trots det g\u00f6ra ett s\u00e5 pass stort avtryck p\u00e5 v\u00e4rlden att han alltid kommer att bli ih\u00e5gkommen.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
