A fall could be the death of Pasi Ikonen – this is the kind of acknowledgment the terminally ill world champion gets from his orienteering helmet

A fall could be the death of Pasi Ikonen

– In the spring, I had another operation due to a brain tumor, and because of that, a large part of the skull bone is missing from the top of my head. The brain is only protected by the skin, and then a bad fall in the forest or a collision with a branch could be fatal, says Ikonen, who also discussed the continuation of his career with the treating doctors.
