The man who made skiing more fun

Inventor Klaus Obermeyer introduced the first plastic ski boot, the first down parkas, mirrored sunglasses and the turtleneck. At 96, he still carves down the slopes of Aspen.

Over 100 now and still going strong, Klaus Obermeyer is an absolute legend; someone everyone can look up to not only for his accomplishments but also for his incredible attitude through it all. Props to this man.

Wow, he didn't use patents.. Apple on the other hand sues people over patens they don't even have. Sad.
