| NAOMI UEMURA, ADVENTURER Uemura, an atypical Japanese, went on adventures such as climbing Kilimanjaro and the Matterhorn alone, traveling to the North Pole with a dog sled, and reaching the North Pole alone. Regrettably, despite his motto that "adventure means coming back alive," he himself disappeared. | |
