Vincendon et Henry : coupables ou victimes ?<\/p>\n

Je reviens sur cet extrait du communiqu\u00e9 de la Compagnie des guides (publi\u00e9 en 1957) que j\u2019ai mis hier en ligne sur le blog : \u00ab \u2026 ceux qui, par esprit de vanit\u00e9, entreprennent des courses au-dessus de leurs possibilit\u00e9s et de leur comp\u00e9tence [\u2026] font bon march\u00e9 des risques auxquels ils exposent les sauveteurs dont ils escomptent l\u2019intervention. Nous estimons que Vin\u00adcendon et Henry se sont plac\u00e9s volontairement dans cette situation exceptionnelle. [\u2026] On ne peut, m\u00eame pour sauver deux hommes, exposer avec certitude la vie de 10 ou 15 sauveteurs \u00bb<\/p>\n

Il me sugg\u00e8re deux commentaires :<\/p>\n

– D’abord, on ne d\u00e9nombre heureusement aucune victime parmi les \u00ab 10 ou 15 sauveteurs \u00bb dont la vie a failli \u00eatre expos\u00e9e \u00ab avec certitude \u00bb. Et pour cause, ces 10 ou 15 sauveteurs n’ont \u00e9t\u00e9 dans cette affaire que virtuels. Seuls les moniteurs de l\u2019EHM, les amis alpinistes de Vincendon et Henry, et Lionel Terray se sont mobilis\u00e9s pour tenter quelque chose. Et aucun n\u2019a jamais repris \u00e0 son compte une telle condamnation. Tous ceux qui les ont connus peuvent en t\u00e9moigner : Gilbert Chappaz, par exemple (comme ce mot lui va bien !) n\u2019a jamais exprim\u00e9 que des regrets pour n\u2019avoir pas pu tenir sa promesse de revenir chercher les victimes apr\u00e8s les avoir install\u00e9es dans l\u2019\u00e9pave de l\u2019h\u00e9licopt\u00e8re (en r\u00e9alit\u00e9, il n\u2019en a pas eu l\u2019autorisation). Pas l\u2019ombre d\u2019une condamnation, ni m\u00eame d\u2019un reproche. Aujourd\u2019hui encore, on entend ce genre de propos – h\u00e9las, et pas seulement pour la montagne – il en a \u00e9t\u00e9 question r\u00e9cemment pour des sp\u00e9l\u00e9ologues. Mais jamais dans la bouche de ceux qui partent au secours des autres. Par exemple, je peux t\u00e9moigner pour avoir eu le privil\u00e8ge de participer avec eux \u00e0 des op\u00e9rations de secours, que les sauveteurs du PGHM, ne se livrent jamais \u00e0 cette arithm\u00e9tique obsc\u00e8ne. D\u2019une fa\u00e7on g\u00e9n\u00e9rale, ce sont ceux qui restent dans la vall\u00e9e qui condamnent \u00ab ceux qui, par esprit de vanit\u00e9, entreprennent des courses au-dessus de leurs possibilit\u00e9s \u00bb. Sans doute pour calmer leur (mauvaise) conscience.
\n– Mais admettons que Vincendon se soient rendus coupables. De quoi?… de vanit\u00e9, par exemple. Admettons. Ils m\u00e9ritaient donc un ch\u00e2timent. Normal, ils \u00e9taient coupables. H\u00e9 bien, la morale est sauve, puisqu\u2019ils ont bien \u00e9t\u00e9 condamn\u00e9s. A la peine maximale. La peine de mort ? Non, la peine maximale : la peine d\u2019agonie, jusqu\u2019\u00e0 ce que mort s\u2019en suive.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
