We met up with the model athlete from Meransen in his hometown – and conducted a slightly different kind of photo interview with him. The 32-year-old spoke about building his house, his mentor Armin Zöggeler, and also his special love story with his new wife, fellow luger Emily Sweeney. © stol Dominik Fischnaller is South Tyrol's luge superstar – and thus one of the great medal hopes for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Cortina.
