00:00I think I'm getting to the top.
00:06I'm not sure if I have a lot of energy.
00:10If I was at the top, I would have great visibility.
00:13I would have a lot of energy, because I was aware that this project was starting for me.
00:19And only being at the top, the most difficult moment was starting.
00:30It was hard for me to get inspired, to look for some information, data that would help in this project.
00:50I managed to solve some problem.
01:00I think I never had the motivation to be the first person to do it.
01:18It was a challenge for me, a challenge with my body, my limitations.
01:24And it was a dream to do it.
01:30My skiing started there.
01:33The mountains were very low.
01:36But over time, my older brother showed me activities like climbing, low alpinism, extreme skiing, freeride.
02:00It was my first time, so it was magical for me.
02:15The wall was huge, almost 4,000 meters.
02:19And the moment when I saw for myself that this descent was possible.
02:23It was unbelievable.
02:29Everyone was overwhelmed by my idea.
02:32The whole family was terrified.
03:24It was quite special.
03:27I remember that I was wearing my skis.
03:29I focused on this descent.
03:31The moment when it started to come out and I managed to combine these segments into one whole, it gave me a lot of satisfaction.
03:56The culminating moment when I was happy and euphoric was the end of the descent,
04:04when I stopped at the last snowdrift.
04:07I felt a huge relief.
04:10I was really proud of myself.
04:12It's hard to say.
04:15I keep my fingers crossed.
04:17I hope that one day I will do it.
04:19It gave me a lot.
