‘A Tribute to Discomfort’ is a short film about National Geographic photographer Cory Richards and his love of adventure.

A few years ago Cory Richards survived an avalanche during his descent of the Himalayas, then took a selfie. The image, showing a human on the edge of survival, became the front cover of National Geographic magazine. Since then he has travelled the world photographing his inspiration: humanity. This awesome video shows you a bit more about a remarkable human – and will inspire you to watch as Cory talks about the role of discomfort in inspiring him to greatness.
