Jeffrey Glasbrenner - an amputee and mountain climbing

On July 30th 1980, when guest Jeffrey Glasbrenner was still only 8-years old, growing up in Boscobel, Wisconsin in the Southwest part of the state, this farm boy that loved helping his dad who he idolized, had his life completely changed forever. While cutting hay, his right leg was cut by the tractor that they were using. Jeffrey explained, “Basically, the best way to describe it was the tractor was like a large pencil sharpener and my leg was the pencil, and so, from that moment, I just remember looking down and I could see just bone sticking out where just moments earlier I had my whole leg.” To say that Jeffrey Glasbrenner is an athlete is an understatement. To say that Jeffrey Glasbrenner overcame incredible odds to emerge victorious in multiple sports is also putting it lightly.
On this episode of Finding Your Summit Podcast, we talk with Jeffrey Glasbrenner, Motivational Speaker, Athlete, Author, and Father about his experiences going from losing his right leg at age 8 to reentering his passion for sports after a 12-year doctor-advised hiatus at age 20. Imagine crying out loud as a grade school kid on that fateful day that you would never be able to run or swim again, only to eventually run multiple Ironman World Competitions, compete in three Olympics, and climb Mt. Everest. Then imagine a step further as his father, his hero, literally saves his life after his leg was cut by remaining calm enough to apply a human hand tourniquet. Jeff stated that “The doctors, later on, said that if he had not done that right away, I would have bled out and I would have died.”
