The idea of climbing and having to stand in line for hours like the lines for rides at an amusement park is just bizarre to me. Hiking, climbing, outdoor adventures are surely about the feeling of being in nature, the spiritual feeling, the isolation and so on is an almost religious experience. All those people, all those lines, just looks like a horrendous time and goes totally against the spirit and nature of climbing or anything of that nature.

@adventuresgonewrong 2 месяца назад

Totally agree, I would run the other way if I saw lines in the outdoors.

@MacawAviculture 2 месяца назад

As a sports medicine doctor it seems very easy to stop the insanity and unnecessary deaths by simply requiring proof of the fitness qualifications of each climber before they are permitted on any 8K meter peak. Any world controlled by money and profit has a future consistent with war, death, and eventual destruction of all things beautiful and sacred..

@GardeninGrace 2 месяца назад

I just read more about her and her life - it’s inspiring in a way that once she left home she never returned after finding the mountains. That was her home, and although some may think the way she passed was ‘anticlimactic’ for the adventurous life she led, from what I read her home was on a mountain. The way articles described her home sounds absolutely beautiful but I couldn’t find any photos so I’m not sure if what I’m imagining is true to what it looks like. In the end, she will live on in the mountains and be an inspiration for countless woman.

@ChardeeMacdennis339 2 месяца назад

@SongsforSleepwalkers 2 месяца назад

I recall reading John Krakauer’s excellent book (Into Thin Air) on this drama and thinking how utterly corrupted mountaineering had become. It’s gotten even worse since then. It’s now all about money, power, ego, and expected bad weather. Midway through your video, excellent storytelling as usual.

@adventuresgonewrong 2 месяца назад

It’s interesting, it was all just kind of beginning then. And to see those lineups today, it’s just wild. And as I mentioned in the video, even Krakauer looked at the Everest climbers in the early days with contempt. Then he became one and later regretted it.

@SongsforSleepwalkers 2 месяца назад

I read his book many times in the pre-RU-vid era, an excellent recounting of utter chaos, and l agree he has integrity. His book was published a scant year after the tragedy and must have been written in a state of shock or PTSD. In the most mundane situations, as they say, "accounts may vary".

The amount of researched you've done, the way you've broken down and explained basically everything, without going into superfluous information... it's all amazing. This is one of, if not the best, videos on youtube regarding deep dives into a major tragedy. Thank you for putting it together and I can't wait for part 2!

@usainengland 2 месяца назад

I lost my nerve when you said, “moving ice” and “ladder” in the same sentence. Sorry my comment is lengthy with good reason. My friend, who told about “Into the Thin Air” when it came out, has since died due to a heart attack. Frank died just walking out of his apartment in NYC. Totally unexpected, dropped dead in his lobby. After hiking and climbing alone for many years, he dies surrounded by people who could do nothing to save him. Weird. I loved hearing about Frank’s adventures. I am fascinated by people who risk their lives in search of physical/spiritual fulfilment. I find fulfilment in helping other people. The physical quest holds no reward for me. But I interested in those who are different from me. Frank was very different to me and loved him for it. Thanks for an amazing channel and reminding me of a good outdoorsman and a great man.

@@adventuresgonewrong He was at least honest enough to admit that depression/ mental health issues were what was driving him to get involved in such a risky pursuit.

@Hennessy_Williams 26 дней назад

I've read both Anatoli & Krakauer's book and now I'm team Anatoli all the way. I still really love Krakauer's book but a lot of Krakauer's observations seemed assumptive and judgmental when he doesn't have all the information / isn't the most experienced climber of them all. I'm glad that it seems like history has been kinder to Anatoli after his passing; he is a hero.

@crow8173 6 дней назад

krakauer has been proven to have lied multiple times in the story and it's generally full of contradictions.

@baguettegott3409 16 часов назад

Yes. Krakauer has the undeniable advantage of just being an actual good writer, so no wonder his words have a farther reach and a bigger impact. But that has nothing to do with how accurate what he wrote is. I don't consider him a liar, I think the contradictions are down to earnest mistakes, but he does (in my opinion) have the fatal flaw of over valueing his personal opinions and thoughts. And this is again just my personal opinion, but I could also imagine that his view of everything might have been especially skewed by trying to find the _story_ inside all the disperate facts and events. You need a narrative if you want to write about it well, but real life is so increidbly messy, and the knowlege from the word go that this would have to be a story in the end is maybe not the best perspective for an observer to have.

@ursuladirnberger 2 месяца назад

I've been captivated by this story ever since I stumbled upon it in an outdoor magazine in the university library during a study break in 1997. Since then, I've read many articles and books about this disaster. I've been thinking a lot about who's really to blame but it's not easy. There were so many circumstances that led to this tragedy - not only human errors. Also, I think, when you climb Mount Everest it's crucial to know your limits and of course, it's not easy to turn around after spending so much time, effort and money. I like climbing mountains but the altitude of those mountains is pretty low. It's mostly between 2000 and 2500 m and I can climb 1000 m in about 2 1/2 hours. Just imagine that's "only" 800 m from camp 4 to the top and people need 12 hours to get there! How crazy is that? What an enourmous effort for your body and what willpower you need to put one foot after the other when you are being exposed to -40°C, windchill and very low oxygen. I understand the fascination of the 8000s but personally, I'd rather stay in the Alps than to go to the Himalayan. Thanks for this video. Thanks for diving deep into this story and for being unbiased by telling the story from different perspectives. I love this channel!!

Anatoli Boukreev seemed to be the only person involved here who had a solid understanding of the world and a innate common sense of what this undertaking all entailed. That clarity and keen understanding of life in general is a rarity that few people possess. He was probably one of the only climbers who were qualified and deserved to be there. He survived this tragedy only to die in an avalanche on Annapurna the next year. RIP to a true hero and legend, the kind you only hear about in stories ❤

You just made my Sunday! loved Krakauer’s book Into Thin Air. I became kind of obsessed with mountaineering disasters. I read Alive when I was in Grade 8 and it started my love of disasters of all kinds, but Into Thin Air was fantastic. ❤️🇨🇦

I agree. They seemed to really like making the C-54 Skymaster video. They got lots of exercise with the local topic.

You've really done a great job with this story and describing the people involved.

@adventuresgonewrong 2 месяца назад

Thanks! I hadn't seen it ever described in detail so I thought I'd take a stab at it.

@BrianD0313 23 дня назад

This was very enjoyable. I doubt anyone else has gone into such detail as you did.

Hello from England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿, currently 4am 😮 Loving the channel, great work. N' aaw looks really cosy there with the doggos 🐾 😊 This is as close as I'd want to be getting to Everest, vicariously from my own cosy spot here with a nice cuppa tea ☕️

Spectacular, as always. I was saddened to hear of David Breashear's passing a couple of days ago.

Wow, just stumbled upon this. Love your wicked sarcasm. Am an immediate fan. Interesting, informative and entertaining.

@kaymarie7427 2 месяца назад

This is the most informative video I've seen yet when it comes to the 96 disaster, or Mt Everest exploration in general, and I'm not even half way through. I love the way you put your sarcasm into it as well. I've always had a fascination when it comes to mountain climbing, especially Everest. I'm certain that need for whatever it is will never be me, but it is fascinating.

Thanks! I love the deep dives, there's always SO much more to the story than we usually see/hear.

@kaymarie7427 2 месяца назад

@adventuresgonewrong So true! I've watched videos and / or read things that I hadn't realized were something I had already read or watched videos about simply because it was from a different perspective!

@roxiw66 Месяц назад

Thank you for your very excellent report about climbing Mt. Everest. Also for including Ft. with your description of the various elevations. I am 82 years old and we didn't learn about Meters in school back then. I used to buy 3 1/2 yards of material to make a dress so I've not used the metric measurements in every day usage.
