We learned on Friday night death of Patrick Edlinger today at the age of 52, who was found dead at his home in La Palud in Verdon. Thirty years ago, his film "Life at your fingertips" had returned climbing, including his solo in full the Gorges du Verdon in the history of the Mountain. He had to participate in meetings of the film Grenoble Thursday. The causes of death are not yet known.
The "Blonde" We were told this week his passion for climbing he practiced every day. "I am a free man" he told us Wednesday, "I have no regrets of my career."
Today, Grenoble author Jean-Michel Asselin, who prepared the first biography of Patrick Edlinger (forthcoming in May 2013 published by Guérin) reported on the publisher's website qu'Edlinger suffered from alcoholism, "c is the hardest fight I've ever conducted, not as a solo, but I'll leave, "he said to Jean-Michel Asselin.
