Today we are about to dive into the tragic story of Andy Harris whose unwavering willingness to aid others, ultimately led to his early demise on Everest in 1996. Andy Harris was a respected mountain guide from New Zealand. During the 1996 Mount Everest disaster, he found himself in a tragic situation on the mountain.
Despite the possibility of his survival, he made the decision to go back and help Rob Hall and Doug Hansen who were in trouble high on the mountain. Maybe he could have survived had he not gone back to find his colleagues on that fateful day. It was his helpful nature that eventually led to his untimely death on Everest. Nobody ever saw saw him again.

What God? The one that convinced him to climb as high as planes fly?

Big fan of your channel! Much love from Lusaka, Zambia, a very very flat and warm part of the world. Your videos allow me to escape and dream of exotic and distant places. Keep up the great work.

Krakouer's failure to act played a huge part in more than one climber's demise--when Anatoli asked him to join him to rescue Hall's clients, he told him no---then turned around and tried to blame the whole debacle on him. He's a menace to mountaineering,

I will never understand why Rob Hall committed su1c1de. He had a pregnant wife waiting at home and just weeks from thu childs birth. Hansen had never a chance. They should have forced him to turn back or leave him. He had no close family waiting for him (meaning no family responsibility) and was ready to d1e for Everest. Je just gave up when he summoted. Robs situation was different. He yad summited Everest multiple times and had every reason to live. I will never understand Hall. He had several other clients to take gare you of. He had even mad Beck swear he would wait for him and it nearly k1lled him. He knew Harris was waiting for him and he got him k1lled as well. Hall was veri irresponsible.

@ckerspilo 9 месяцев назад

Hall told Beck to go back with the first ones coming down if his sight didn't come back. He never told Beck to wait just for him

@principecaprincipeca2243 9 месяцев назад

Harris had high altitude sickness sings already when Krakauer met him descending. And it would still be hours stll Hansen made hos summit So no, I don't believe he would have made it anyway. He should hade started descending at latest when he met Krakauer, who was also started to react from the lack if oxygen and was hallucinating.

So sad. I just don't understand the mountains calling.

@nolasaintsfan 9 месяцев назад

These high altitude climbers live a life closely resembling that of the person that shoots up Fentanyl…. It’s only a matter of time before fate catches them..

@HardCandy-fd4vz 9 месяцев назад

Yeah but even with Fentanyl there’s those that make it no matter how rare life’s a risk.

Killed by Doug Hansen

@kimthreadgold2755 9 месяцев назад

Hall should have not allowed his client to to reach top so late and not enough oxogen. I wish they would have clients meet a deadline to turn back. The selfish client Hall waited for died anyway, and two famous climbers died as well.

@paulgrey8028 9 месяцев назад

Several hours into the climb on summit day, Hanson stepped out of the line saying that he didn't feel well and wanted to descend. When Hall caught up to him, he must have urged him to continue because Hanson got back into line and continued climbing. Before the summit attempt, Hall had repeatedly told his team how a turnaround time was imperative. Either 1pm or 2pm depending on the snow conditions on the day. In 1995, when Hall turned everyone around after reaching the South Summit, Hanson collapsed and had to be dragged back down to the South Col. That's what makes it all the more perplexing that Hall did not turn Hanson around when he was obviously struggling, using the last of his reserves to summit.

@paulgrey8028 yeah..I think it was the journalists that came and wanting to remain competitive with mountain madness..that I believe was the catalyst. That and having altitude sickness himself as it seems off from his normal actions.

Krak had nothing to do with Andy’s death!!

@anniehills3580 Месяц назад

If Krakaou is guilty, there are others guilty. Why didnt anyone force them all to turn around thhat were struggling that day...😢😢

@jameswillett2403 2 месяца назад

Seriously? The mountain was minding its own business. He forfeit his life as soon as he entered the death zone despite what common sense dictates.

@TheMisterMarilyn 9 месяцев назад

Did you really need to read out all those names, especially at that point (at the start of the video). I hope the rest of the video won’t have any interruptions of several minutes in the middle of the rest of the video…

@dana102083 9 месяцев назад

Did you really need to make a long comment on that too?

@dks13827 7 месяцев назад

No, he did it. He could have gone back down. Same as Beck Weathers. Go down. Turn around.

@achitophel5852 9 месяцев назад

Sorry. Anyone putting themselves deliberately in lethal harm's way, as all high altitude mountaineers do, just cannot attract any sympathy.

@jimvandeven9732 2 дня назад

He put himself in harms way because he tried to save others mate

@kristenjensen2589 9 месяцев назад

Liked the post, bu plèase, please work on your accent. It is all right in places but nnearly unintelligible in much of it. I say this with respect.

@krystlships 9 месяцев назад

Work on your comprehension.

@heyitsalannaluv 9 месяцев назад

His accent is fine, use subtitles if you need to. Im not sure if english is your native language, but i know a lot of people dont have any issues with his accent. In addition, this type of comment comes off rude, its not something that a lot of people can just change like its just super easy. Jusy saying..

@kristenjensen2589 9 месяцев назад

My comment was respectful, as I said in it. I am a linguist and a Cambridge certified instructor of English as s second language with twenty five years of experience. As well as English being my mother tongue, I speak six other languages including three dialects of Arabic. It was my suggestion that this good gentleman strive to clarify his accent if he intends to be a RU-vid reader. There are many simple ways to do so; including RU-vid videos that are free. Within the world of English instruction there are specializations in teaching pronunciation and accents. It is not my comprehension that is lacking, rather a professional opinion offered in the spirit of of gentle encouragement to boost his succes. He is very fluent, obviously highly educated. Again, with all respect to him.

@heyitsalannaluv 9 месяцев назад

@@kristenjensen2589 lol ya sure. But again as someome born and raised in the US hes fine. if you dont see how the your comment is rude im not surprised. In addtion, your previous comment was filled with so many errors its funny you had the audacity to speak on his "accent". Again, his accent is fine and if thats something he decides to work on thats fine but he probably lives in india where thats not necessary. When i go onto someone else's channel i dont tell them what they should do with their accent as that is offensive in my opinion. Maybe you need to check your earphones or your ears because i and many others dont have any issue with his accent..respectfully

@kristenjensen2589 9 месяцев назад

Respectfully, I have ms, hence the shaky hands.And since I addressed the gentleman and not you, he is the only one qualified to say whether or not he found it offensive. It's actually none of your business.

@johnwhite8777 9 месяцев назад

Everything wrong about that day..a climbers 2nd attempt to summit pressured Hall to get him to the top even though he was way late and tired and proffesional climber who didnt hold to his turn around time rule and another pro climber who gave his life to help them..and thats just..Hall Hannsen and Harris ..lets not for get Scott fisher who was part of the summit teams that day..2 of the best ever 1 up and comming and 1 who should have never. Been on that mountain...
