- There is a route on K2 that was considered to be the most difficult climb on the savage mountain for over 25 years….and some of the most accomplished climbers from the 1980’s and 90’s refer to it “as the most difficult route in all the Himalaya and Karakoram”. This path pops up constantly throughout the history of K2….in some of the deadliest years of the mountain…In 2004, one man was successful in completing the climb, becoming only the second expedition to accomplish the feat, but it came at a steep price…and ends in tragedy…This is K2’ Magic Line….This is the story of Jordi Corominas…

I really do appreciate the way you narrate these stories! I have binge watch all of your mountaineering videos! Great job and you've got good at it!
This youtube channel is severely underrated.
Not by anyone here. We all rate it highly
that guy is a badass, finished the summit alone then descended another route in the dark alone. wow
i can only imagine
..and made it all the way back to Camp 1 before falling ill... wonder what was it?? Edema? maybe Death By Awesomeness 🙏
Jerzy kukuczka climbed the south face with a single partner. Probably one of the most dangerous and under reported climbs ever. And his partner was killed in a fall on the way down. That guys climbs are amazing
Thanks again for your valued content my friend. It always feel genuine and authentic.
I’ve been binge watching these videos. You are doing a great job. Keep it up and you will be just fine.
k2 videos are always great
your choice of music, the music editing and mix levels are all 💯
Just to be respectful to Jerzy and Tad -The Magic line is absolutely NOT the most dangerous or demanding line -It's the Central Rib -AKA Polish Line that has this title and it isn't even debatable.
it is the most dangerous route on the most dangerous mountain. that part is true
But, there are other possible routes that have never been climbed.
@@jeffdavis7356 Sure -there are infinite variations of main routes on all mountains. but the ribs and faces of a diamond shape like K2 pronounce main
routes of which there is no question -the Polish line in the most dangerous and demanding of those
These videos are so good
The world of climbers:
„The most difficult route on K2 is magic line!”
The Poles:
„Hold our beers - we’ll climb K2 by The Polish Line”
🇵🇱
😛
People think a carabiner attached to a rope is a sure life saving thing. But it comes with its own fatal consequences
i did that route in flip flops
lol
I walked through Death Valley naked
Oh!shouldn't eat before bedtime..gives weird dreams 😂😂
how did u sit down without burning your hiney? Do you have really hairy cheeks?@@Menstral
I flip flopped stubbing my toe once. Thankfully it was just a dream caused by my pinky toe poking out above the AC vent. Life's hard but someone has to write this.
Fuck it guys, once I go off to uni in a couple months I’m picking up mountaineering. K2 is my final goal, I’m 17 and I wanna start training ASAP. I wanna climb it while in my physical prime.
Was going to do K2 but it's been done, too easy, no glory. Still looking for K3.
It's there Gasherburn what are you waiting for, lol
I need the intro music downloaded 😫is there a longer version?❤🥺
2nd hardest. Apparently the polish line is more difficult !
I cannot fathom what drives people to spend tens of thousands of dollars to endanger their lives to go to the top of an unforgiving, brutal mountain. Is it really worth your very life? And those who have survived, but lost fingers and toes, limbs and noses...is it really worth it? I don't get it. All my life I've had to survive. Preservation of life is everything. I can't see throwing my life away for a mountain. Such a waste.
@miapdx503 Same with cave diving! Some people’s hobbits terrify me! I have zero desire to climb big peaks or dive into darkness. 🤯🫣
By risking your life, you get the feeling that you’re ‘alive’
Because you are a mediocre
I was there once and I kid you not a saw a guy wearing flip flops climbing it in the group ahead of mine
I did it in a wheel chair with a squeaky wheel. Like no big deal whatever.
Daily trip to the pub? Nice.
😢
Thats it I taking the magic route😂 I prepared to die😂
When the most dangerous mountain isn’t dangerous enough you might be an addict.
no explanation to his abdominal pain???
Is it considered cheating if you use a rocket pack?
Won't it be amazing someday if and when the East face is climbed. Consensus is, it will never happen.
@rhobot75 Interesting - I wonder why it hasn’t been?
@@alpschild Completely unstable snow and ice formations on a scale far beyond the Kangshung Face of Everest. A death trap. A couple of years ago, there was a climber who went around to have a look and see about climbing it but he said it would be impossible. I'm always watching the blogs for news of an attempt. Cheers
@@rhobot75Any potential climb on the east face of K2 would have to be done in the winter, as the the added cold would actually help make the otherwise extremely unstable snow and ice formations be relatively more stable.
Israel has the right to defend itself from K2.
Show the bodies
Calm down satan
Shame that you didn't mention the names of guys who made the first accent.
And...it is not the most dangerous route, there is one even dangerous than this one, done only once.
Ascent. Yes I'm going to be that guy.
If this is another reupload im unsubscribing.
Oh no!!! What will we do without thee Kevin watson.😭😭😭
These guys decided to climb K2 the difficult way. Was it more scenic that way? Were there Pakistani mountain beauties handing out free food and massages by going this way? What complete rubbish.
Imagine if you ran a business this way. I'm going to find the hardest possible way to make money. I can make money selling light bulbs or encyclopedias door-to-door, but instead I'm going to make money by selling cigarette butts to homeless people. When I finally make $100, I will declare myself the hero. NO.
Ok mr. Menstrual 😂
With people like you we would've never circumnavigated the Earth by sea. Reached the Poles, the summit of the 14 8,000m peaks, explored the depths of the Marianas Trench or ventured out into space.
Thankfully there are people who understand the concept of 'Standing On The Shoulders Of Giants". Through discovery and exploration we learn, sometimes tragically to our cost, how to achieve new goals. These people achieved something whilst you've just confirmed what a dull, ignorant shoe gazing, facetious jobsworth you are!
I genuinely don’t have the words to explain how stupid this comment is
“We choose to go to the moon this decade and do other these things not because they are easy but because they are hard”
I’m aware you will never accomplish any sort of human achievement as you’re a lowest common denominator type person but you probably shouldn’t talk about those who do accomplish things because you are currently living at the present benefit of that human achievement.
You just simply can't get it. I doubt you ever will
