David Lama (Nepali-डेभिड लामा; born 4 August 1990 in Innsbruck) is an Austrian sport climber and mountaineer. He won the European Championship in bouldering in 2007 and the European Championship in lead climbing in 2006. He's known for his first free ascent of the Compressor Route (South-East Ridge) on Cerro Torre.
David Lama was born in 1990. His father is a mountain guide from Nepal and his mother is an Innsbruck Austria native. David was five years old when Himalaya veteran Peter Habeler first watched him climb in a climbing camp organized by him. Afterwards, Habeler immediately called his parents to tell them that their boy had an unusual talent. Lama then became part of the competition climbing team coached by Reinhold Scherer. He became the youngest person to compete at the world cup at age fifteen and the first to win both a lead and the bouldering world cup in his first season. In 2011 he retired from competition climbing and focused on mountaineering. In 2017, he made an ascent on The Eiger's north face with Peter Habeler. This was Lama’s first time up the Heckmair route.
