12. Italian nun skiing Stelvio Pass, 1975
Meet the winter sports enthusiast you never saw coming: an Italian nun carving up the slopes of Stelvio Pass in 1975. She’s not only breaking through snow, but also smashing stereotypes, one ski trail at a time. Swapping out her usual habit for ski goggles and poles, she’s showing us that the calling of faith and the call of the wild can exist in perfect harmony. If you’ve ever asked yourself, ‘What would Jesus do?’ Well, the answer might just be ‘hit the slopes’. After all, a little snow never hurt a divine intervention, right?
