House painter and decorator by profession, Brahm was noted in his early age as table tennis player and skier.
Apart from climbing in the western parts of the Dinaric Alps, in the early 1930s Brahm bagged successfully the summits of Jalovec, (Couloir route), Triglav over the north face, and Grossglockner.
After a six-hour climb and about 3/4 of the route completed, Brahm fell 8 metres (26 ft), his head bouncing off the rock and his body landed in squat position on the ledge where his belaying partner was.
Despite the rescue effort - the other two went for help to Starigrad and came back with mule loaded with 300 metres (980 ft) of fishermans rope - it turned to be all in vain as Brahm was dead already due to severe skull fracture.
On the 2nd anniversary of Brahm's death (June 27, 1940), Marijan Dragman/Drago Brezovečki party completed the unfinished job.
