In May 1996, a severe storm trapped several climbers high on Mt. Everest as they were descending from the summit. A total of eight climbers died in what has become one of the deadliest single tragedies in the mountain’s climbing history. One of them was Scott Fischer, a renowned climbing guide from Seattle, who was born in 1955 in Michigan and moved west in 1982 where he founded Mountain Madness.
This is his story !

I met Scott at NOLS in 1977. He was our rock climbing instructor during a semester course (FS II). Our next time spent together was in December/January 1979-80 for that year's New Year's Grand Teton Climb. Scott was the lead instructor. I needed a recommendation from Scott to be eligible for the NOLS Instructors Couse in the summer. At the end of the climb, I skied out to the road head with Scott - just the two of us. Scott was ahead and said he'd meet me at the parking area. I decided that I'd stay with him somehow. When we arrived - together - (I was exhausted), Scott smiled at me and then said he'd write the recommendation. I was about as happy as I'd ever been. Went on to take the I/C that summer and stayed in touch with Scott until Everest 1996. Yes, that guy could motivate people like nobody else I have ever known. I can hear Scott saying, "It's the attitude, not the altitude."

It was actually only John Krakauer who massively BAD MOUTHED BOUKREEV , writer of bad novels J.Krakauer this US pseudo mountaineer who wasn't even making the attempt to go back up and save others as did Anatoly Boukreev twice. This Celebs or VIP American PSEUDO mountaineers thought that with paying Scott Fisher a lot of money they didn't have NO RESPONSIBILITIES AT ALL WHAT CONCERNED THEIR OWN SAFETY Krakauer should know that there is a mountaineers code trying to save others...this code didn't seem to apply to Krakauer and the other US Pseudo Mountaineers. The famous Billionaire woman who delayed the whole ascension with making the Sherpas bringing up Camera and other heavy equipment to the top was irresponsible and only concerned about her own Fame. That the only person(Anatoly Boukreev) not NEEDING OXYGEN WAS THE ONLY ONE STILL HAVING A FUNCTIONING BRAIN and clearly told Scott Fisher to descent before reaching the top which would have saved most lives. Oxygen was probably tainted since Scott Fisher switched to a cheaper local supplier and the tainted oxygen prevented Fisher from clearly thinking and assessing the situation.

There's one glaring fact that has been kept secret from the public by surviving climbers who were on Everest that fateful day. Graham Radcliffe, who was on the South Col on the evening of the 10th of May [but was not even mentioned in Into Thin Air or any of the other accounts of the disaster that I've read] spent three years of dogged research before he found the truth, that both Fischer and Hall had access to two highly accurate weather forecast services that warned that a storm would hit late on the 10th of May [That's why the IMAX team abandoned their 9th of May summit attempt] It's incomprehensible that two highly experienced high altitude climbers would not only take their mostly inexperienced climbers to the summit knowing that a storm was bearing down on them but how they ignored their turnaround times with that knowledge. Not only did surviving climbers like David Breshears and Ed Viesters hide that astonishing fact but how they still refuse to acknowledge the truth after it was revealed by Graham Radcliffe.

It’s very easy to judge from the comfort of our couches. Read more memoirs. Many of them were published. I hiked to 14000 feet. I know what it means to struggle for breath. There were different circumstances, it’s not flat , there are ridges , you can’t carry anybody or anything because you are too weak and it’s too dangerous. You don’t think clearly , you hallucinate because of oxygen lack. If some organization pays for expedition , it needs a results. Ask how many of them did not have money to go back to their own country because expedition was called of. Thats why some of them make a decision do go forward instead of going down.

I mean, I don't know scott, I can only see his fruits which paint a different picture than your comment. Noone likes to speak ill of the dead, me included, but the truth is what it is. When someone dies , everyone says " They were a great person, nice to all, loved by all." . Folks speak especially fondly of the most evil folks in the world. The way scott selfishly died ( he should have called it quits when he took that man down, for the sake of his family . Instead he selfishly gave up his life in hopes of fame and money.), and he put a truelly good man/ a sherpas life in danger in the process. For the sake of greed and pride, says alot about his true personality. As does his giving to rich charities instead of actually helping folks (and one of those charities was a complete scam. Noone ever died of hiv who wasnt given deadly drugs to treat them for it. But granted scott didnt know that. He just wanted to appear nice). Maybe he was nice guy and fun to be around? I don't know, but his fruits /actions paint a different picture of his heart. 😢

@@aaronwalker8847 your rampant ignorance and stupidity paint a different picture of your words. “A complete scam…” you’re dead wrong. And in a twisted way, partially right in that truly no-one ever died of HIV/AIDS itself…. No. What people who have been infected with HIV all die of is the secondary infections, all the diseases that don’t have life-threatening effects on people with healthy immune systems but kill people whose immune systems have been weakened or destroyed (which is what HIV does). But saying the charity is a scam and blaming all the deaths on “deadly drugs to treat them for it” is the same kind of stupidity as seen in anti-vaccine fools who don’t realize that the reason we don’t have major problems with so many of the deadly plagues of ages past is because vaccines work. And now we have outbreaks of measles again because so many selfish, stupid pricks have refused vaccines on behalf of their now-infected, ill children. Yeah, Scott Fischer died stupid breaking his own rules and climbing past the point of no return when he should have turned around on time and gone back down the mountain instead of pressing upwards and onwards to end up as another suicide on the mountain. Yes, suicide - there is no reasonable excuse that he didn’t know what he was doing. Selfish? Maybe. Putting others at risk? Probably. I haven’t taken a close look at all the charities he supported during his life - “giving to rich charities instead of actually helping folks….” The truth is probably not what you claim it is there either…. There is plenty of waste, fraud and abuse in many charities and there are plenty of charities that help people less in need instead of making real change for people in much worse circumstances, but I doubt that ALL of the charities you slam as “rich” fail to help anyone at all. But you’re not going to reach anyone with the parts of your commentary that may well be correct when you throw in the completely untrue BS about a major global epidemic threat that is still a problem today.

Most of that trash is from earlier expeditions when ethics were (very) fast and loose. There are now programs and fees for trash removal, and every climber is now required to put down a $4000 cash deposit which is only returned if they bring 18lbs of trash down the mountain (the average amount left per person). So things are improving, but Everest is still the highest altitude trash dump in the world. And that's not even talking about the bodies... there are dozens and dozens, many in places where it is impossible to retrieve them or bring them down. Most are above 8000m in "Rainbow Valley", named for the bright jacket colors on all the bodies there.

I believe that it was an autobiography of the event by someone else there who either didn't see anything anatoli did, or is just lying to make up a villain, because comparing everyone else's view of his actions to that one account makes it look like nothing less than character assassination. He doesn't get his respect not because he was Russian, even now those who know the truth still don't hold that against him, he doesn't get the respect because of lies about him on a day that he saved several lives over the fact that he wasn't superhuman enough to save the others.

I would call him a sociopath. I would equate him to Bernie Madoff or Bell Gibson. I guess in some ways its like the wild west and people have been wanting to climb it for decades and spend 60.000 dollars to do it but dang I would hope that I would never leave someone to die. I guess they shut shut off all links to any empathy at all and climb. However they accept help from shirpas and they get help too so in my conclusion I would say that the climbers who leave others to die are doing something immoral, how can you leave someone suffering.......I dont know maybe I am wrong or maybe I have done the same thing. I know for me I get tired of helping people who are constantly getting themselves hurt when they could be careful and finally I say enough let someone help them. ( I live in a bad neighborhood where people are always getting beat up and overdosing and sometimes after helping enough people I get discusted and sick of helping even though I cant see me ever leaving someone to die, thats crazy I dont know if I could face god and know I did that.!!

@@planes3333 you seem to have zero grasp on the reality of “helping” others in the death zone. Those who need help are unable to move on their own at altitude, meaning they have to be carried. Those carrying them are also suffering from severely depleted oxygen levels, regardless whether they’re using supplemental O2; it’s called the Death Zone for a reason. The impact altitude above 8k meters has on the body is profound and unstoppable. The odds of another climber, who’s been acclimatizing for several days already at Camps III and IV, the latter of which begins hypoxia, already compromising their decision making capacity, carrying their own limited O2 supply (tanks are heavy and climbers carry only what they need based on anticipated climbing time to the summit), being physically strong and coordinated enough to carry equivalent dead weight are nearly nonexistent but that doesn’t even factor in the difficulty of the descent route itself-when NOT carrying someone who can’t help themselves in any meaningful way). Taking on that task is a death sentence for the average climber and even for guides. You expecting them to do it in a damn blizzard is the pinnacle ignorance and presumptuousness. How dare you try to pass judgment and deem strangers “immoral” when you’re quite clearly functionally ignorant on the subject matter. Worse still is you having the audacity to Monday morning quarterback how it all should be done better when odds are the only climbing you’ve ever done is the stairs in your own home. Shame on you, talking about being judged by God someday while you sit here playing God yourself, passing judgment🤦🏾‍♀️🙄

Thank you for this. As a note, Sandy Hill Pittman, the NY socialite had been short-roped (pulled by a rope tied to her waist) up the mountain by Lopsang Jangbu Sherpa for five to six hours at the outset of the ascent. Consequently he was unable to set the needed ropes for the climb up the Hilary Step. So the climbers were all delayed by 2 hours setting the ropes and so encountered the storm coming down. Lots of mistakes but I suspect no one would have died had she not been a part of the climb. She also indicated to at least one other reporter that she was being by pulled up the mountain against her will. Just an opinion but shared by many.

It is often forgotten that Fischer was the only member of the Mountain Madness team who died in the ‘96 disaster. I think he overestimated his own strength in the end, driving for a summit he had already achieved despite developing illness, but it is a credit to him and his team that he was the only casualty.

Scott Fisher and Rob Hall both started a commercial mountaineering business. Both wanted their journalist to touch the highest point on Earth so they can advertise more of their business. Too many Bad decisions were made which costed their own life as well as others !!! Bitter TRUTH is they were BLIND BY THE FAME !!!

I have been fascinated by Mount Everest since I was a child. This mountain is in a class by itself. I cheered when climbers made it to the top, and was saddened when some did not make it down from her. I have to say that when the earthquake happened in Nepal, it was the mountain's way of saying "Enough is enough - leave me in peace. It has been proved time and time again that my summit can be reached, and at what cost? No more deaths upon my slopes, or garbage left behind. Leave me as I am."

One of his guides didn't have a radio which made co-ordination on summit day during the critical moments impossible. On a climb like this, every guide should have a radio.

Im not wasting a single tear on these suicidal people. And they shouldnt ask others to risk their lives on them. His only saving point was that he cleaned up after himself and others. These people who claim they love the mountains are liars. They TRASH the mountain. Jesus weeps.

However tragic the death of any climber might be, they gamble with their lives every time they decide to climb an unforgiving towering piece of rock and ice. Sometimes they lose the gamble. With tragic consequences.

@@mrasmussen5506 Yes, sorry. The guide at the end is up hill from all and has the responsibility of watching the whole client team. They are the first to act if a fall arrest is needed, judgment calls about climbers getting sloppy, etc. They watch over their rope team on the descent.
