Editorial reviews

Dan Brodsky-Chenfeld survived a plane crash that killed twenty-two people and left him with several life-threatening injuries, moving on to become one of the world's greatest competitive skydivers. Listeners will be enthralled by Brodsky-Chenfeld's story of perseverance and exhilarating descriptions of skydiving, ably performed with a cool nonchalance by Nicholas Tecosky, which provides a nice contrast that allows Above All Else to build its suspense naturally. Brodsky-Chenfeld also shows how to apply the lessons he's learned to everyday life, making Above All Else an inspiring and well-rounded listen.

Publisher's Summary

World-famous competitive skydiver and coach Dan Brodsky-Chenfeld presents proven tools and techniques for success and explains how they can be used in everyday life. Dan survived a plane crash from which 16 of the 22 people on board were killed. He was left critically injured and woke up from a six-week-long coma with a broken neck, broken skull, severe head trauma, a collapsed lung, and other serious internal injuries. Against all odds, Dan recovered and went on to become one of the greatest competitive skydiver in the world. With the love and support of friends and family, Dan was able not only to resurrect his life but return to skydiving to achieve greater heights than he could have ever imagined. His techniques and methods for excelling are applicable to all people, no matter their goals.

Dan uses his experiences to teach the lessons he's learned - as a competitor, coach, business owner, father, and husband - to help others achieve their dreams, overcome obstacles, and reach their peak performance.
