Gérald Métroz - Lived Dreams

Alain Amherd

"I'll never be a high jump world champion. But neither will you. We all have our limits." Gérald Métroz lost both legs as a child. Nevertheless, he achieved much in his life. He was the first professional ice hockey agent in Switzerland, advising Nico Hischier, among many others. We were privileged to photograph him at the spot where he lost his legs in 1964.
