Biography

He was born in Abetone, Tuscany, like Zeno Colò and Celina Seghi, and he finished 18th in the alpine skiing combined event at the 1936 Winter Olympics.

During World War II he participated in the 1941 "World Cup" in Cortina d'Ampezzo that was not subsequently approved by the FIS because many nations opposing the war were absent. At this event, Chierroni won the gold medal in slalom.

Chierroni won 14 medals at the Italian Championships: 6 in downhill, 5 in slalom and 3 in combined.

gollark: That is *not* how it works.
gollark: I don't really like vacuum tubes honestly. It's much cooler, in my opinion, seeing how much stuff can be packed into tiny silicon chips.
gollark: > tiktok takes advantage of the openess and can load executables with no checks at allOh no, imagine programs being able to run other programs within their sandbox?
gollark: > one time someone hacked my phone using tiktok they erased all of my data but my phone was okSeems unlikely.
