Watching these with a mug of tea in bed is living my dream life
Yes!!
Love it!!!
Because the alternative is to have one of these videos made about you- better safe then sorry! 😂
That's pretty fucked up to say, I don't think you meant it intentionally but I don't think however comfortable one is, one should revel in the misfortunes of others in which they were visited by death before they would have normally. It's interesting but I don't think I'd say something so hyperbolicly tinted through dispassionate description.
I say this whilst eating before sleep so I'm not trying to act as if cut from greater cloth but felt that the wording was a tad troubling.
Regardless I wish none to know any misfortunes even slightly similar to these.
Take care.
💯 couldn't agree more.
I watched these marathons to fall asleep...then go back and listen again while working.... I am amazed by these people.
I agree, you would think this would give me nightmares and sleeping problems - but after half hour I snore like old badger
@@miroslavzima8856you are so right! These wonderful people are beautiful in their dreams to meet their life goal, it's amazing!. Unlike me, they are the best!
@@miroslavzima8856 an old badger? How do you know an old badger sounds when asleep 😂😂
@ellenprice6549 probably like him while he sleeps 💤
@@miroslavzima8856True adventure seekers *with huge amounts of money!!!
It's always putting a smile on my face when I hear "first vegan to ascend all 8ks" or "first Canadian women that was born in India to summit Everest" soon it will be "first American half-german-from-mother-side-half-italian-from-father to summit Broad peak from south-south-east side under 27 hours 36 minutes"
Every time slightly more specific so to keep the "first ever" label
Was thinking same thing.
Is there someone that keeps track each of these firsts- or a way to look them up?
Considering vegans often have serious protein deficiencies (certain types of complex animal proteins are non-existent in their diet) the fact one can get to this summit could be more significant than not using additional O2
😂
I’ll be the first American with Irish descent to attempt to climb K2 in the buff while drinking black coffee. I’ll do this tomorrow.
omg i know exactly how these climbers felt! i once climbed up to the top of my couch and stood precariously balanced up on the highest neck cushions. after making my way past the middle back cushions, even though i was having a hard time breathing in the thin air, i persevered up to the legendary head cushions. there i stood battling vertigo as i looked out at the view. i almost fell but steadied myself and held my footing. arching my neck, i yelled out, "I'm King of the world!" then slowly made my way back down to base camp where my trusty remote awaited my return.
I feel the same way when I climb on top of girlfriend.
@@kasperkilos407 me too w/ my wife. With the twin peaks topping 48DD, I'm finding it necessary to include O2 on my ascents.
@@kasperkilos407Unfortunately she is at her lowest point then too.
Funny guy sick in the head
That post was epic! The replies were also good. Play racketball, it’s way more fun.
to me "free solo" is synonym of "die young"
YOLO!
No fun, no happy
No risk - no fun.
For me the synonym of
"deth wish"
Please don't ever change the soundtracks! They are haunting and beautiful. Perfect for this kind of story telling. Much love from Texas :)
Ditto from TX! I never do any of this but I am addicted to listening.
Soundtrack OK! Please be inclusive METRIC not "inch by inch" but TODAY Greetings from sunny tropical THAILAND czcams.com/video/OGbr-aAnKTo/video.html
Also from Texas and I agree
they are annoying. it sounds like a failing computer fan or something
@Phalxor The sound is a staple in these videos. You're nuts!
The story of people coming together to save that Sherpa during the 36-38th minutes was heartwarming.
Has anyone ever just hiked to K2, kicked back in a collapsible chair, enjoyed the scenery for a few days, and then just hiked back home?
It’s all about the summit for most. I’m with you but these are extremely driven.
It’s not feasible or I’m sure it would have been done. Air is too thin, weather too risky, line to the top too long. I wish!!
do you mean besides all the members of all the expeditions that only went to base camp? most expeditions will have support personal that don't go beyond the base camp
@@SilverMe2004 nah man “support” sounds like work. Can’t kick back and enjoy the view when people are paying you to work.
I do this on some weekends with my son, when we are bored.
I can’t get enough of these mountain misadventures! Thanks for all of your research! Love this!
Can’t imagine climbing K2 and be near the top only to have a body fly over your head on its way down the slope of the mountain!!! Be hard to keep on pushing! Great stories! Thanks for posting!
I found the fact they had to sleep outside at the upper elevation camps pretty crazy lol.
Idk much about climbing, but I think I’d probably just turn around and go down if there was no tent to sleep in at that altitude. It seems like stopping and or sleeping outside in -20 degree weather is a terrible idea and I’d be afraid I’d freeze to death overnight.
It kind of sounds like it was the fyre festival of expeditions, and when your K2 expedition is unusually cheap it’s probably a bad sign lol.
That was a close one.
A crevasse formed in my sofa and I almost dropped my toast down that bottomless pit. Luckily I’ve seen your videos and was quick to act. I was soloing, a long 3 hour session on a Netflix miniseries, so no help available.
The mountaineering gone wrong incident where Toni Kurz dies hanging by his rope off the north face of the Eiger is the one that always sticks with me.
They were so close and couldn’t help him. His last words… brutal 😶
Guy was the best ice climber in the world for me R.I.Paradise 🕊️💐🕊️
I now have a playlist of just Terror Twin’s Mountaineering Gone Wrong Marathon’s, I put them on in bed to fall asleep to. Perfect commentary volume, respectful information, no jarring music. I’m sure I’ll eventually reach the end of the sixth one still awake one day 😂
When that day comes, I’ll start on the caving/diving ones.
Either this channel was custom designed for ghouls like me, or there’s loads of people exactly like me: fascinated by something that I myself will never manage to achieve.
Your channel is the type of channel CZcams was invented for. Thank you for your channel and the research that goes into each part of each video 👏🏻👏🏻
same!!!!
North 02 is great to fall asleep to
I loved your comment and totally agree with every word you said! ❤
There is just no explanation for crazy 😧
Excellent presentation. Interesting stories. Good background music. Definitely worth watching! Thank you!
love this channel RIP to those brave souls
There's nothing "brave" about facing death only to acquire self-gratification.
@@tsc7299 or stupid!!!
@@tsc7299you don’t get it it’s a hobby people really do love it people loved climbing before social media was a thing people truly just enjoy it. If I was strong enough I’d want to climb too as it takes lots of practice
@@saucyavery1875
You're wrong.....
I do get it, and that's exactly why I commented as I did.
Why are these videos so addictive? I can’t stop watching them and dreaming about getting to know these amazing places! Great work!
love this channel, sad but so interesting , i hang on every word
Your coverage of these stories is excellent!! I’m glad your videos came up in my CZcams feed!
I like seeing the scenery
Appreciate learning from these stories
I can't help but sing "Climb Every Mountain" when I watch these videos. I find them all fascinating. The risks they take are insane! I guess if they don't make it, loved ones can say they died doing what they loved to do. That's crazy to me, but I'm not a thrill seeker or adrenaline junkie, so I guess I don't really "get it." As for me, if I fail the first time at anything, that's it. Most likely won't try again, let alone 6 more times. It's quite the exciting life I live. 😄
But in all seriousness, I have to give these mountaineers a lot of credit, especially to those who don't make it. They know the risks, but still do it anyway. RIP to all those who have perished doing what they loved.
I had to stop watching after 12 minutes. One of the K2 expedition members was ANATOLI Boukreev, one of the greatest high altitude climbers ever, not „Khrighiz Bukrev“ - whoever that is supposed to be. Mistakes can happen, however, fact checking is important.
@@BB-xq8mk oh. Wow. I wondered if I mis-heard. Yeah, disrespectful af
The photo at 35:55 perfectly illustrates both the stark beauty and some of the insane danger in mountaineering: imagine losing your footing on a solid ice slope like this and then starting into a downhill slide that you can't for some reason stop, nothing between you and the rapidly approaching cliff edge ahead of you....
Thanks for the time stamp
I appreciate you! Blessings 🙏🤗🕊
That's a transition frame. Do you mean the camp of the guy climbing ice? Both are showed at 35:55, Einstein
@@sterlingcampbell2116duh! It's so obvious what he meant. It doesn't take a genius to figure that. Obviously you couldn't figure it out.
i’m new to your channel…. enjoying so far. wow. some of these stories are terrifying. tragic. humans are complicated and crazy… what some choose to do for fun, relaxation, thrills etc is beyond belief. thanks for putting these compilations together. really informative and eloquently presented. great show! 😮
Thank you and glad you liked it!
@@TerrorTwin i have subscribed. 😂👍🏼
Don't go chasin waterfalls
Please stick to the rivers and lakes that you're used to.
💯
I've been climbing for almost 30 years. You did a great job with this, and all your videos! 🤙You do your research.
It is just a matter a time before you take a tumble....
Professional & superb channel! Thank you!
Kudos to all those that attempt this dangerous sport. Bless those left behind, devastated at the tragic loss of friends, families, and loved ones that didn't make it back safely.
When they get a Holiday Inn at the base of these humongous mountains, I'll be there 😅👍 ha I can't even imagine mountains of this magnitude. Never seen anything like them in person (unfortunately). These make the Great Smoky Mountains seem tiny in comparison
Such a great channel. Thank you for doing this!
Agreed! Amazing work! ❤
Can't admire that a man sacrificed his life on an icy rock.
Exactly! It’s not noble it’s silly and a lot of times selfish.
You explain and show the challenges of this sport very well. And you are so respectful it should be an example to others detailing these sorts of events.
Thankyou
Thank you for the ten minute education on ice climbing.
Your channel is superb, I’ve been enjoying it so much. 👏
Death, the ultimate thrill.
All men die. Not all men really live
great story! Catch u on the next one, Cheers
Those 5 milers ( 8 thousanders in metric European si units) have their own micro climate and can hide risks
7 attempts, 7 failures. Time to die.
I have same obsession and intrigue about THESE DARE DEVILS. It’s actually CRAZY TO ME. Almost like PRO FOOTBALL PLAYERS THAT BANG THEIR BRAINS against each other every day.
I’m glad and grateful you do these stories and clips
Thanks you
Strange how majority of free solo climbers that have died while climbing were using rope/gear .
Free soloers are insane. Be careful not to idolize insane people.
I lived in LA in the 80’s and climbed up the side of the Hollywood sign mountain. It took hours, much higher than it looks. It was about 2am. Total darkness. This was before it was fenced off. I climbed the letter O. The metal side ladder was freezing. It was a nightmare climb. Looking at this video I can’t imagine what possesses these people to do this as entertainment. It’s horrific.
I'll stick with WI zero... I'll stay on the flat ground..
Don't go up a mountain unless the mountain has invited you.
I personally haven't lost anything atop any mountain nor will I ever get it as a hunter I can sit at home warm as my deer steak sizzles in a cast iron skillet as my accomplishment is about to be enjoyed without having to plan the way down...
the lines of people roped together being led to the top make it appear like an adventure holiday be that a dangerous one but still a very commercial enterprise.
Ice climbing looks really beautiful, but I don’t think I’d ever do it without a gun to my head.
I’ve never climbed in my life and have little interest in doing so. I’m not sure why I’m so drawn to these videos
Well, researched and presented. Thank you.
Maybe i am boring but i never tried anything that was dangerous. Life, and my family and friends are more important to me than setting a record or being the first one to do something.
I climbed up a fully extended ladder to trim some branches. So scary.
Hauled logs off the coastal mountains year round for years ...enough tension and risk for me
In some way you can always be the first to summit ...like...being the first to have summited k2 with a diper..and one sock..
or by being the 1st named Ash Richards
I admire people that do this, just not for me ! 🧡 🙏
Why am i obsessed with mountaineering disasters? I live in the mountain state but i dont think thats it as none of these mountains are anywhere near me. ❤ anyway love your videos 📹
This is crazy 😮
It's crazy that he free climbs yet that wasn't what got him in the end. I think that's the saddest part about his death. He does such a dangerous sport and turns it up to 100 by free climbing yet the simple act of walking on the wrong place at the wrong time was fatal. It feels so unjust.
Found your channel today!
Great, one of the best channels on yt...
Greets from Russia
When I was a kid we had a stone wall maze in our playground ,we kids used to stand on top of it and jump along it jump the gaps.very exciting till my pal fell and broke her thigh bone..it was a wake up call for us kids.the maze was demolished after that.made all of us realise how dangerous climbing was.
These people are brave but so reckless.
I don't need a journal to attest to their feelings. I live in San Diego. I climbed the hardest and highest summit. (El Cajon summit) when I reached the top I, too, was unenthused. The best thing I saw was the return to the parking lot.
The is so beautiful
New sub 😊
Thank you!
RIP🙏 feel really sorry for the family 😭1 common Denominator 💯life is short enough 😢
I'm sorry but you're wrong. There's nothing admirable about being so stubborn you refuse to see the facts in front of you, and if Mark had decided to stay with Michael, he would have most certainly died. As a mountaineer you must be able to know when the danger outweighs the reward.
Thank you and very selfish,Family members Grieving some for the rest of there lives😭RIP climbers 🧗♀️
Instagram gives me the ability to travel through time and space from the comfort of my living room chair. I'm a world traveler, but haven't seen one percent of 100 available. With Instagram, my horizons, expand exponentially.
There's a mountain in my home country, in fact there are many but that particular mountain isn't even very high but it's bare and treacherous because it's in a limestone section of the Alps. Every year one or two people die climbing this damn thing but people keep going up there. I don't get it, I absolutely hate limestone, the only material I'm willing to climb is granite and mostly I just hike and I get more than enough beautiful views, awe inspiring moments and just time in nature out of it, why all these risks.
Matterhorn?
**In negative 35 degree weather**
"Just sleep outside bro.."
I can only imagine the tom-foolery and backstabbing that goes on in these "expeditions" lol
Yeah when you watch enough of these videos you definitely do see a pattern of betrayal and backstabbing going on . I guess once things get tough and its all about survival and self perseverance then its every man or woman for themselves .
In the U.K. (and plenty of other places) “Guy” would be pronounced “Guy” as in “pie” not “Gee” as in “bee”. You’re obviously right, since that was how his friends pronounced his name. It’s the first time I’ve heard it said like that which feels strange. Good video!
The Savage Mountain will never take dust (or snow) off my boots… I cannot bring myself to train at age 80 to spend weeks in frigid temperatures, sleeping on hard ground in tents, eating strange foods (vegan?) even though I could possibly be the first 80-year old (demented?) woman to climb to the top….
This actually is the first video of your I've seen
Hmmm, I would think that ice dancing, not ice climbing, would be a dance with nature…. because it has the word “dancing” and all.
Thank you for another exciting video! I made one about 5 shocking cases of people living with dead bodies and one for incredible true story behing highest survived fall without parachute 😮
Subscribed, glad to find you!
"TOLD TO SLEEP OUTSIDE" WTAF
Awesome video. I wish you could do a video on all the tragedies that have happened over the years with magicians and tightrope walkers, that would be sweet. ❤
Insanity. They never show the agony of climbing
Back down??? YIKES!!!🏔
My question is why ??? Would anyone want to climb these mountains
Aye Terror can you tell me what song you use for the intro? Sometimes I watch ur videos just to hear the intro lol
I went to devils Island and climbed the 32 thousand foot mystery Mountain and was the first humane to lay eyes on king Kong what a sight That's one big mountain hope he covers my story.
If I ever get famous it dam sure want be from climbing mountains!! lol
I think Alex is the world's greatest athlete....
You cannot see the K2 summit from the bottleneck, traverse under the great serac, nor to left of the great serac until you get above the serac in elevation -so I dont know how the recounting of the story of Jensen, Bender seeing the headlamps is possible. This would only be possible from Camp 4 or up on the summit pyramid above the serac.
Thank you for not being a robot!…R.I.P. to all the fallen climbers around the world.
The unfortunate thing about K2 is really that the majority of people who die, die on the way down. I don't think it is sad though. They died doing what they loved to do. We're all going to go. I hope we all die doing what we love, when the time comes! RIP!
They died doing what killed them.
@@michaelgallagher3640 - BOTH statements are true Michael; they died doing what they loved & they died doing what killed them! Reminds me of the guy in the news, years ago, who died while having sex! He died doing something he loved & he died doing what killed him! RIP to all!
I don’t know, being swept by an avalanche must be painful. Unless he died right away, from the impact. If not, he felt several bones break, while struggling to breathe.
They sure loved being crushed by avalanches, falling rocks, flying off the mountain, freezing to death in their own urine and faeces or delirious from altitude sickness and blind from swollen brain.
I struggle to find these tragic. People go teasing death for the hell of it. But the reaper has the last laugh.
Love these movies, these people are either beast or crazy. I would like being at the top but, I wouldn’t want to climb it up or down. I would also want to be very safe, not asking much. There was one rich woman who paid a fortune to be basically carried up and I think caused the death of a climbing icon. That may be off but, I have a bit of dementia so, pardon it I’m wrong. I have a fear of fall, not heights. I can be up high if there is no way I’ll fall and never close to an edge.
If you are thinking of Sandy Hill Pitman on Everest in 1996, she gets unfair stick for having more money than other guided clients caught up in that disaster. Maybe more so for being a woman. Imagine her as a man 100 years before, a Brit, the Hon. Alexander Hill-Pitman on Mt. Blanc in 1896, and you'll see she fits right into mountaineering traditions.
1:55 there’s absolutely no way people do this 😮
Imagine how many times in a short period that Peter Mezger must have wished he had just gone down the mountain after all his gear blew away and not listened to Eberhardt who convinced him to go back up.
These videos are my assurance that no matter how much I may want to climb a mountain, I would probably end up on one of these misadventure youtube lists. I'd rather pass on falling into a crevasse with zero chance of being saved, breaking my legs and freezing to death. No thanks! now if you would excuse me, my dinner is at the door😅
I think 1 out of every 100 dies on Everest and 1 out of every 4 people die on K2 BUT I read this fact in the youtube comments section so its probably wrong lol
I will never accidentally fall from a climb because I will never climb and I am perfectly happy with this
To see to the other side 😂
I love
All your videos thanks
Life is about taking risks. And a long life is about avoiding the stupid ones.
You think that dude was the 1st vegan to die on K2?
I'm wondering who really gives a f--k that he was a vegan. If the sherpas are Hindus or Buddhists, then probably hundreds of vegans have climbed it successfully.
44:52 *"Just a Simple Man" Dude, what gives you the right to say that?*
I’m such a morbidly curious a-hole.
Welcome to our club 😂
Mountains are the Earths answer to too many wealthy people.
Well, for me it´s more triggering that they gradually destroy those icefalls with icepicks.
mountains R SCARY.....
ice climbing is far superior
I just can't watch the no-ropes guys. Insane.
Wow, my first thought is WHY?
