Our Story
Hi. I’m Emma Osman, daughter of Dan Osman. Dan Osman was a man best
known for his solo-speed climbs and rope free falling. I am DanO’s only child
and when my father passed away 13 years ago, I knew him as just my dad.
Now, at the age of 25 I am on a mission to know him as an adult and as the
legendary rock climber that he was. My goal is to go on a journey with
all of you to find as much information as we can to get to know the man who ran
up walls because he idolized Spider Man and yet encompassed the spirit of a
great Samurai. This documentary will
continue to show who Dan Osman was, and is today. But I need your help.
The Impact
I continue to receive wonderful emails about my father, as well as emails
that are filled with questions of what he was like and what impact did he have
on me as his only child. What I am
finding out at the beginning of this journey is that I get to learn from
everyone, who was inspired by him, what he was like aside from just being dad. I want this journey to continue for everyone,
not just myself, and I feel we can accomplish that through this film. If we do not accomplish this, many will
wonder for years to come who Dan Osman really was. So I’m turning to my
strongest supporters to ask for contributions.
What We Need & What
You Get
I am starting with very little and I need to raise at least $15,000 to
cover the cost of PRODUCTION. This will include getting interviews from DanO’s
friends, family, and influences that are scattered all over the U.S. I’m going to collect all their footage, pictures,
and personal stories of him and have them transferred into high quality digital,
and for production. Along with all that, we also need to take care of all
the legal matters for us to move forward. In exchange, I’m offering some DanO
Gear (such as t-shirts and limited edition items based on DanO) and we are
offering a signed copy of Fall of the Phantom Lord by Andrew Todhunter.
Your contribution will help me create entertainment for everyone to enjoy
with never before seen interviews and footage and further, it will help me be
able to give back you as much as you have given to me. Your comments and
messages have helped me cope with my father’s passing while making me realize
that there is more to learn about the legend of Dan Osman. If we do not reach
our goal campaign we will still go forward with the attempt at creating the
film. Only issue will be that it may take years to finish. My production team and I are ready to work
hard to finish this film within 9 to 12 months.
Help us get the funding to make this possible!!!
Other Ways You Can Help
I’m already so thankful to everyone in sharing their videos, pictures, and
stories where my dad was a part of, but in order for us to get to the finish
line, please SHARE this link with your friends and family in getting the word
out about DanO’s legacy.
THANK YOU!
