Tommy Caldwell, a world-famous climber, faced a severe Achilles tendon injury in 2022, which took him two years to recover, impacting his climbing routine.
"At first, I didn't understand the severity of the injury. I've always been a fast healer," Caldwell said, reflecting on the unexpected challenge of his recovery.
Caldwell described his comeback as one of "the more uplifting experiences" of his life, highlighting his determination to overcome the lengthy recovery process.
With collaboration from fellow climber Alex Honnold, Caldwell achieved a significant milestone by being the first climbers to ascend all five peaks of The Devil's Thumb in one day.
