Summary here if you want the 60 second version https://climbing-history.org/climber/824/didier-berthod

Grimers pod with him (linked on the page above) is really good if you want the details.

The post also alludes to the other "full circle" factor in his life since he left Squamish in 2007 for the Swiss monastery. Once just local gossip, it seems like that story is now mostly in the public domain but perhaps not? Anyway I bet the Sender/ Reel Rock crew are keen to film an update: the #1 feel good story in climbing of the last couple of decades?
