I am a passionate mountaineer and (high altitude) hiker. I will upload hikes and climbs on a regular basis. I am currently training for 8000er mountains solo and without supplementary oxygen. If you would like to know more about me, follow my videos and take a look at my website. www.norrdinenouar.com
Hallo Norrdine! Ich bin eben auf deine Videos gestoßen und die haben mich direkt gepackt. Genial. Höre dir sehr gerne zu und die Aufnahmen und Eindrücke bringen einen so nahe ran. Wahnsinn. Ich war 2018 schon mal für eine Annapurna Umrundung in Nepal und kehre nun mit einem Freund in einem Monat zurück für zwei 6.000er als Einstieg. Wir sind schon sehr aufgeregt. Wie hast du angefangen mit dem Bergsteigen und wann? Danke für deine Antworten. Würde mich riesig freuen :) Yannik, 30 aus Lübeck
Do you really think it’s okay to show someone’s body in your Video? At least put a trigger warning before you show it, I really didn’t want to see that.
What I notice is all the TRASH. IF you have however many thousands of dollars to have Sherpas do most of the hard and dangerous things. U should at least be required to bring all your trash and sh!t back with you. Climbing Mt Everest looks more like standing in line at a Walmart than climbing a mountain. At least the Sherpas get ur money 🤑.
can you tell me about the regulations on climbing a mountain like Annapurna or any other mountain.. do the guides allow you to go un guided ? is there a risk of sabotage? can any one just camp at base camp and then stat climbing up any mountain?
your video is so cool honestly and it really shows how exhausting it may be doing this climb. but one the other hand, it looks commercialised as fuck honestly, the mountain, not your video. like, I get the whole " I went to everest" thing but I think the whole "experiencing nature in its virgin and natural state" thing is lost here, anyway.
Wow! Ich habe die letzten Monate damit verbracht alles Mögliche über Annapurna I herauszufinden, ich dachte ich hätte alle Videos gesehen, alle Beiträge gelesen - aber am Wichtigsten: Ich dachte ich es gäbe nur ein einziges Summit Video von Annapurna I auf RU-vid. Jetzt bin ich über deinen Everest Attempt auf den Kanal gestoßen und habe dein Lhotse Video zu Ende geschaut - auf einmal wird mir dieses Video per Autoplay reingedrückt und ich bin komplett geflashed. Danke, dass du mit uns deine Expeditionen teilst und noch dazu wie so ein sympathisches Kerlchen rüber kommst.
you don't want to do low rep high intensity resistance training on your legs for climbing mountains because you will create type 1 fast twitch muscle fibres, these are very powerful but are not oxygen efficient. What you want is slow twitch muscle fibres, which don't look as aesthetic and are not anywhere near as strong but are extremely oxygen-efficient and can move with only tiny amounts of oxygen. Please don't get this confused as a lot of people do, you will have more endurance climbing for days or even weeks at a time with slow twitch muscles fibres and the only way to train those is by hiking, if you turn them into explosive fibres you can tire quickly and it can be dangerous.
There isn't no way I'm on that mountain at dark thirty Nno wway Must have sunlight not flashlight..... What people of Mexican that lost his car-----Carlos ah ha
subbed, your doing awesome im a student ive been to 2 4000m peaks in the alps as a solo amateur climber and i really admire and understand this type of solo climbing but im far away from being able to try something bigger solo, i had a question about fixed ropes, do the rope setters from other expeditions on the mountain allow you to clip to their ropes or are u prepared to solo climb everything along the route, and as a hypothetical question for reference not regarding the altitude which makes easy ground harder what grade would the normal route on Annapurna as it would be interesting to know as i have nothing to compare how hard the technical aspect would be from the alps from what it looks maybe AD-D? thanks
This is why you're on your third 8000er: you are smart enough to listen to your senses, and not get yourself killed. I am so proud of you for setting a great example for climbers.
I’m a little confused on the virtue of no o2. Seems like unnecessary risk to me. Is it a test of ability to you? In alpinism I always like to err on the side of doing everything I can to enhance my chances of survival. Would love to hear your thoughts.
@@norrdinenouar maybe beginner mountains that someone can climb solo, what gear is important on an solo “expedition“. Would love seeing a video like this , going this summer for a little hike in Switzerland with a friend but maybe that video will help me getting in to solo mountaineering.
You must have seen a lot beautiful places during your travels. Even though 'traveling alone can be really fun it also has it's risks. Stay safe out there.
Oh yes! I can not even count how many beautiful places I have already seen. My life is full of experiences since I started mountaineering! You stay safe aswell!
As a mountaineer, you reserve the right to change your mind at anytime!😊 Every once in a while, you will begin to feel that familiar fire of needing to see what your body's limits are (if any) ... such as summitting Annapurna & Lhotse w/o oxygen. You can do almost anything now, as long as no one gets you sick again.
Hey Mila, thank you for your comment. I should have mentioned in the video that this was in 2019. It was a transition phase in my life, when I slowed down as a person and mountaineer and readjusted my thinking. Sometimes we need to take a step back to take a big leap :D
I love how you keep it real - super chill and motivational. I wish you the best on all of your adventures :) good luck with your interviews! Stay safe and looking forward to more videos :D
Thank you so much for your kind words! I think there are many high quality videos on youtube, but I also like that raw style of just showing things as they are, as youtube was originally in the early days :D
Actually if you want to be precise the term "solo" only counts for completely non assisted climbs, without any fixed rope or infrastructure. Since I used the fixed ropes and the food in Basecamp and Camp 2 the term solo is technically not correct. Though I carry everything myself, my tents, my food for higher camps, my gas, all my equipment etc. I also climb without Sherpa support or oxygen. You would call this style "self supported" or autark.
