K2, towering at 8,611 meters (28251 feet), is not just any mountain. It's a beast, a monolith of rock and ice that has claimed more than 80 lives since climbers first attempted to conquer it. Often overshadowed by Mount Everest, K2 is, in many ways, more challenging and dangerous. On August 1, 2008, A group of 25 climbers began their ascent of K2 under clear skies, unaware that the next 48 hours would become one of the deadliest episodes in mountaineering history. Eleven lives were lost, and the survivors were left to question: What went so tragically wrong on the Savage Mountain?

No idea what happens at that altitude and how fast it impacts your judgement, but as a diver there are certain rules I dont break even though I probably could and be fine. I would think high altitude climbers would have rules in place to prevent disasters like this. Like turning back at a certain time of the day. Summiting at 7:30 PM for example seems like suicide. Certainly by 2008 they knew the dangers of getting caught up there at night or without supplemental oxygen.

Hello, Thanks for your interesting videos ! I'm actually not capable to end a difficult treetop course in a secured environement, at one point I can go ahead i'm way to scared haha...so, climbing mountain without any sort of security well.... it is crazy to me :D. This is both impressive and deadly terrifying, and I respect those who are living for it. I just always had a question, a dumb one I guess but still : is it totally impossible, like 100% impossible, to stay the night near the pic when you see that you'll have to make the descent by night, or in a tempest ? Their is absolutly no way to... Idk, dig a hole, and have a shelter strong enough to allow you to pass just 1 night near the pic ? You maybe don't spare enough oxygene even by not mooving at all to survive so long ? Thanks for the hypothetic answer, and keep it up with your really good vids :D !
