I'm shocked at how much he trained in advance, even adjusted the oxygen concentration for training. But the climb was still super difficult. No criticism, just amazed.
Yea I felt the same, peace ✌️
its not a hard climb.. and can be done without oxygen . stop exaggerating
@@gtxoiltastebad you’re out of your damn mind if you think this is even remotely an easy climb let alone without oxygen.
@@gtxoiltastebad Bro I doubt you’ve ever climbed a hill in your life, let alone a mountain.
@@drunkdonkey1009 put your money where your mouth is and i'll show you pictures of me one Everest , K2 and Cho Oyu
Those Sherpas are absolutely amazing and underappreciated. Without them I wonder how many people would be able to actually summit Everest or any 8K meter peak.
I would say probably none. No one has ever reached the top without a Sherpa.
@Paul Martin you’re referring to a guy named Lars Kropp and his story is questionable to say the least. By law, you MUST hire a local Sherpa guide in order to climb the mountain - period.
@Paul Martin sure - they can. And in some countries, you put not only your freedom but your life at risk by breaking them. Such is the case in Tibet and Indonesia.
@Paul Martin mmm people DO make it to the top Paul. It’s not like it’s an instant death trap. It’s not as insane as people think. If people take their time and manage their energy, it’s doable. So risking your freedom is not wise.
Zero, not many have the childhood muscle memory from mountaineering
You know I was looking for someone who properly blogged their entire journey on Everest and accidentally stumbled across this video. Couldn't have asked for more, great video man. I cant even begin to imagine the kind of mental battles you all fight when climbing that mountain.
He didn’t only reached the summit of Mount Everest, he is a member of the seven peaks club. Which means that he has climbed every highest mountain in every continent on earth….
dude, spoiler alert.. im still watching :D
@@Atreidez Lol sry 😂
K2 mountain is the real mountain to conquer if you want to be among the best.
@@alberthenriette8976 Yeah I get what you are saying, but what sounds cooler; Ive climbed K2 or Ive been to the highest mountain that exists.
@@Atreidez All a matter of perspective. Far less people have survived the summit of K2.
This documentary really is the definition of "it's not about the destination, it's about the journey"
“It’s not about the destination, it’s about the documentary”
Seriously though, this is so awesome
Meh…
He seems like an a**hole that leaves trash at places he shouldn’t be to begin with. Him & he’s trust fund Gypsy buddy come across as entitled jerks on that blog he mentions at the end.
Still,it was a good documentary,Everest documentaries always intrigue me.
I am a 64 year old grandmother who is an armchair mountaineer. I have watched a LOT of Everest and 8000 meter movie. Your film is, hands down the best documentary out there. Nothing even comes close. I felt like I was climbing that mountain every step of the way. Thank you.
Hi Karen, I am a 56 year old couch climber too and one hundred percent agree with your comment. I must have paused this video two dozen times just to savour the majesty. In real life I have never seen snow - South Australia is not famous for the stuff. Thank you too to the film makers. This couch climb has been the best ever.
@@trishlatham7677 I live in Wyoming in the US. We get enough snow that I would be happy to ship it to you.
I have never ever used oxygen while watching 8000 meter plus climbs on Yt while on my couch, never.
It's a achievement.
@@manjsher3094 I envy your strength.
@@karenjones2631 lol thanks
This was the best Everest video I think I’ve ever seen. No drama for the sake of drama, Everest is dramatic enough
what a dumb comment
It feels like the preparation workouts could have been their own two hour video
Summiting Mt. Everest is about the next to last thing I ever want to do, behind deep sea diving. But for some reason, I am obsessed with stories and documentaries on Mt. Everest. This was an excellent documentary. It was so refreshing to follow a team and individual climber who was so prepared, humble, and honorable. I have seen so many films showing all the trash and bodies littering the mountain. It was a joy to see this side of Mt. Everest. Thank you for putting in the effort to record and share your experience.
Me too. Add in spelunking and that's my 3 nopes. But I can't get enough mountaineering videos lol
Same
Me too 😂
Same. I'd never want to climb Everest (or any mountain like it), but I'm absolutely fascinated by documentaries and stories about others who do climb it.
Same... I can not get enough of them.
This is the first mountain climbing documentary where I felt like I was being taken along. Absolutely amazing and I really hope you do more of these.
Yes!! This was a fantastic opportunity to enjoy the journey
Yes. That's really interesting!
Same here. i've watched a few just out of curiosity. This one? I felt like I was there in a way. Always been fascinated with Everest, but at 50, and all broken up due to Iraq, I'll stick to youtube LOL
Yytt
Y u tyyu
I've watched a ton of Everest material, but almost nothing was from the Chinese side. This was really interesting. Thanks for documenting your journey. Really well done.
The first two seasons of Discovery Channel's Everest series were of Russell Bryce's teams climbing from the Chinese Tibet side. They are also good.
O Jesus!! A FACE!!!!! You guys!!!! Look at the clouds 4:06 !! OMG!!! Between the peaks when he says disaster strikes.. the face !!!! Do you see it???
@@jenniferwilson7762 yes… it’s called face pareidolia…
@@jenniferwilson7762 called face pareidolia lmao.
*Tibetan side
Laying in bed, watching this documentary for the 3rd time 😂
This is the most comprehensive and honest account of climbing Everest on the Internet
The amount of credit Sherpas deserve is incredible.
Nice to see people preparing and doing things the right way with realistic expectations.
Great perspective. I hope this video will also inspire people to understand complexity of preparation and it's inherent necessity
Preparing is a huge part but doesn’t matter if you don’t have the mountain of cash it takes to get there. Sadly money is everything
But he trained his body the wrong way.
there's alot not quite right with the team... The guides did alot wrong and much of his training was either unnecessary or MIA.
An easy one to understand... why would you put a water bottle in your pack when you could load it down with actual gear?
Reading your post of 2 years ago, sure hope you are in a safe place
Armchair/CZcams mountaineer here. This was the BEST climbing video I have ever watched. Congratulations on your summit and thank you for sharing this incredible journey with us all. 👍🏻🙏🏻
I wish this was nominated for a best documentary Oscar. Absolutely outstanding!
Maybe in time it will be once it’s noticed more 😊
I have watched a lot of everest shows and documentaries this is by far the best. It is actual and seems almost behind the scenes. Amazing.
I agree and I’ve seen National Geographic and BBC and PBS. This is up there with that
@@hfleah Same!
We shall see. I have watched and written much.
Totally agree. Thís doccie is as real as it gets. Fantastic content. 🙌🏻
how many people do this preparation? 70% 50%
You have some people like this guy who actually prepares for Everest, then you have those yahoos that are learning the basics of climbing while already on the mountain.
Well when 80 year old's can summit it cant be that hard with the same help as they get.
@@titter3648 Mentalities like this are the reason why people die on Everest lol.
@@off1918 No. It's mostly bad weather, waiting in lines, avalanches and just being unlucky and get a bad case of high altitude sickness. On a good day with good weather and good guides and sherpas and oxygen all the way almost anyone can do it.
@@titter3648
Almost anyone can do it!?
Thats Just false
The Problem is peoble believe that and just say, i have enough money lets try Everest would be cool to reach the summit.... And then they are dead
Yup it’s absolutely insane how people who have NEVER climbed a real mountain are just all “oh hey I really wana climb Everest. Let’s go!”
How egotistical and narcissistic do you have to be to think that just having tons of money qualifies you to climb Mount Everest... this has gotten so absolutely out of hand lately... these people put others lives at risk when these inexperienced climbers who think doing a week or 2 at base camp with some aclimitization hikes is considered “climbing experience.” These Sherpas don’t get paid enough as it is, now they’re gonna be responsible for rescuing idiots like this who have ZERO experience. It blows my mind that these people think what they’re doing is totally okay...
This is, hands down, one of the best documentaries about the Everest summit that I’ve seen.
If all mountaineers and those who try to be one would be like the men that are shown here, ambitious but still responsible, realistic, humble and incredibly diligent, there would be fewer deaths and less trouble on this mountain.
I think this documentary has satisfied my curiosity about Everest climbing as it is practiced today, so that I can now move on to some other interest. Thank you!
One of my biggest takeaways from watching this is that you should buy your own oxygen mask and feel comfortable using it well before they show you how to use one a day before your summit push. Blows my mind that such a crucial, life saving piece of equipment is literally raffled off to ppl like you showed. I would be extremely unhappy if I got one of those older masks that didn’t fit right. That whole thing seems like a massive oversight on the outfitters perspective.
One of the best observations. I never once gave that a thought.
I could be wrong, but the raffle looked like a joke to me.
did anyone of the team actually have to climb with an old mask? I don't remember seeing any after the team-leader presented it.
Imagine the idiots who've paid with zero experience and little to no learning.
I'm not only a CZcams mountaineer. I also do quite a bit of armchair cave diving. I'm trying to imagine those guys trusting the same system with their scuba gear. They would never. Oxygen is just as vital on Everest as it is under 400 feet of water. It really is hard to imagine. I guess it's that thing, when every one else is ok with something, we often abandon our own good judgement,, and trust the group.
Is New or old oxygen masks laid out on the expedition contract? You paid for it right?
Me: "I can only begin to imagine how freezing cold it must be up there!"
The video: "The worst part of today's climb was the hot temperature"
And the temperature is probably just above 0 lol
This is what’s really shocked me ! I can’t equate it with the stories of frostbite and freezing to death
😂 😂 😂
I cant even imagine summiting Everest 1 time let alone 17 times that Sherpa did it! That's incredible much respect! This was such a great documentary thanks.
Why do I keep watching this? Over and over again and never get sick of it? I feel like I’m hiking with them. The journey is epic.
I'm just mind-blown on how the Sherpas can climb Mt everest 10 times and also carry double loads of equipment
They are born and raised on the mountain so their bodies are adapted to survive there. Physically they can probably out perform most people with hard labor. It is amazing!
@@ChenoodleSoup yes they grow up in a high altitude, plus I’m sure they start climbing as children.
Not just by growing up at high altitudes but research has shown that sherpas are genetically built for high altitude. Better oxygen binding capacity of hemoglobin and also double the nitric oxide production in blood vessels.
@@aaronderyl I think it's SO interesting and fascinating how humans can evolve depending on where we live
@@SwedBaben been lucky to have experienced this first hand on my first trek to Everest base camp. Had a guide/porter then. A slender looking man in his late 50s who was a heavy smoker. I was 31 and apparently thought I was in the best shape of my life (LOL). This gentleman carried a load and reached each days target 3-4 hours before me who huffed and puffed my ass up. Very humbling and as said - fascinating
This is the first and only Mt Everest documentary that makes one feel as though making the summit is open and available for any one who's willing to put in all of the work and effort. The best I've ever seen.
Don't forget about the vast sum of money...
@@aszechy money is renewable but some people would never be able to meet the physical demands.
and whos rich enough....
You havent seen many mountain movies then.
This is probably the best documentary on Everest I’ve seen. Every little detail was touched on. Thank you
Can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched this. One of the best videos I’ve ever seen. Thank you for sharing it with the world. ✌🏼
Me too!. My jaw drops every time as if I am just viewing it for the first time. Outstanding!
Just stumbled across this one and I've seen a shit tonne of mountaineering docos over the years. Excellent video and long enough to really get in to it.
Not gonna lie, I cried a little when you three summited. It felt like I was there. Thank you for taking us along on your incredible adventure! Awesome documentary!
O Jesus!! A FACE!!!!! You guys!!!! Look at the clouds 4:06 !! OMG!!! Between the peaks when he says disaster strikes.. the face !!!! Do you see it???
@@jenniferwilson7762 Yeah the face says: "Really guys? You can see me from the bottom too, you know.."
Thanks for not lying
Two things this doc does a great job of showing: 1. the sheer amount of effort in prepping ahead of summiting, the summit is just the cherry on the top of a huge journey. 2. the amazing Sherpas, I mean I knew they were amazing but to see them time and and again doing all that work, packing all that weight, making that soup and tea, its really incredible. Great Watch!
This is the first time I’ve seen Chinese base camp and the northern approach, read lots of books and watched HEAPS of documentaries but this is the first time I’ve seen it. I was surprised that the landscape is like the moon. Great documentary, I absolutely loved it, thank you 🙏
Excellent script, video, drone footage and information that seems to be left out of every other Everest production.
This is the BEST Everest doc out there!
Thank you.
This guy really prepared like you should
Have watched this a few times now and it is the best Everest video I've seen and it's not close. I think the reason is - this doesn't ever come across as a production to get views from random people. It really is a documentary geared specifically to people who are interested in what it takes to actually try and summit Everest. Sincerely appreciate this video and I wish there others were more like it. Well done.
I'm an artist, I don't know anything about climbing, but that is one amazing and informative documentary, thank you for it. Incredible editing, too.
Climbing everest has to be the absolute worst way to defect from china to nepal.
This is only a handful of times I’ve ever commented on CZcams but I was blown away with this documentary. It was that good I will watch it again. Very clear and well explained start to finish. Amazing achievement beyond words and I’m glad you shared it with us 😎
A greater achievement than climbing everest really (no sarcasm)
In my 35 years of being on CZcams, I have rarely commented on another's comment.
@@ig00g1e CZcams has only been around for 16 years though.
me watching them climb everest as i lay in my bed as i have been for the past 5 hours
👁👄👁
😂🤣😂🤣😂
I have exhausted all Everest videos 😆 I am on to K2. Now that is insanity.
Actually, two years ago I had exhausted all Everest videos but there’s been a plethora of new ones. This one is the best ever though. I only wish it was from the Nepalese side because I have a special love for Nepal. ❤️🤫
Almost as if you climed up yourself isn't it? :D
@@hfleah I'm on a quest for Everest/Big Mountain vids/movies too. So far, 'Meru' was brilliant! Everest (motion picture) was good. Even 'The Day After Tomorrow' due to the snow! Can't get enough!
I’m on the couch let’s face it this is the closest I’ll ever get to the summit of Mount Everest
This is the BEST documentary of Everest I’ve seen. Felt like I was right there with you…..Thank you and your team for sharing this incredible feat!
I simply like this docu. You do not moralize around, but give facts instead. You inform the aspirants. Those, who do not listen to this, are not honest to themselves. I am not a climber, but sailed under extreme conditions. You made me to translate the risks from one subject to another subject more than many. Thank you Sir !
I can attest, the WIm Hoff breathing technique IS powerful!
It takes a certain breed to desire and have the skill to climb, document it, and then edit it for others to live vicariously through. As world population grows and traffic increases in the farthest corners of the globe, videos like this will help keep some people from adding to that traffic.
Congratulations on your accomplishment, what dedication and perseverance!
As something I’ve had on my bucket list and on my way to preparing the finances, fitness and logistics needed to stand on top and get back safely, I have only one thing to say to this man who made this comprehensive video. And it comes from the bottom of my heart - THANK YOU MATE.
Hope you get to check Everest off your list!
@@kjo9982 thanks a lot for that!
one of those videos where you can't afford to take your eye off for a second .. 'cos you'll miss some beautiful shot of incredible footage.
Amazing people .. a special breed ❤️
This is unbelievably good. Shouldn’t be free but I’m so thankful it is. Thankyou
Finally!!! an Everest Doc that was actually worth a damn! Thanks Man!
I am not a climber... when I came across this documentary my intention was to just skip to the end. Once I started watching it, i just kept watching. Thanks for sharing your experience. I felt like part of the team. Well done!
This video is one of if not the BEST video on Everest I think I've ever seen! The only thing I wish you would have done is shown a lot more of your descent. Like you said yourself, "Getting to the top is optional but Getting down is mandatory. " Reaching the summit is half of the journey and the descent is just as hard, it would have been nice to see how you handled it and gave us details just like you did throughout the entire video. With that said, still hands down on such a GREAT video!!! Congrats to you, Patrick and the rest of your team! 🎉
Great journey, and a straight-forward journal of a truly lifetime achievement.
I can’t help but think of the men who first climbed Mt Everest without modern technology or pre-established ropes and ladders.
I'm making a short film on K2 and was looking at videos from mountaineers who did 8k peaks. This one stood out, I feel alot of people who conquered everest didn't deserve it other than pay the fees and having Sherpas do all the work. You trained your ass off, which I think is the build up for the adrenaline rush you get from that summit. Grats on the feats and the film!
K2 are very Danger
His pre planning and diligent training is what grabbed me from the beginning. That shows so much responsibility (and respect for the Sherpas and his teammates).
And this film is the best film about entering through China Tibet and the North col, really so fantastic and the best!
I just loved how he concluded the documentary saying that u need be at ur best not only to summit but to got down from the summit, because climbing up is a choice, but going down is mandatory. Just fascinating ❤❤❤❤.
I will never be a mountaineer, but I respect you focus and determination. Thank you for filming this so we can experience it with you.
An other thing that amazes me is, that he had trained so hard for this mission and still was hard . I cannot imagine everyone that goes there does all this training .
This was the best start to finish Everest experience I had....on youtube😊
I couldn’t put this down after starting it. Thank you for taking the time to put this together - it’s one of the best Everest documentaries out there! Also that Dave Matthews soundbit? Hilarious. Congrats!!!
DMB! ha ha ha!!!!
This is unusually good.
It’s better than all the super-dramatic ones.
Your video is inspiring me.
I am old and chronically injured, and I didn’t do well climbing last season. It was disappointing, but I chose not to push up to summit.
I have been training consistently since January, indoor and outside, and with cold water plunges.
I am Planning to climb again in the Whites this October. Wish me luck!
ill be checking on you here in a few months okay?
Literally needs to win an award for this
good luck! i believe you are going to be the best of your self on October
Did u go ?
Best luck to you!!
Easily the best documentary on Everest I've ever seen! You really managed to include the viewer on the adventure. Thank you and congratulations. Truly amazing work.
So far I have only watched 15 mins of this vid and I am TOTALLY BLOWN away with the dedication and commitment you have shown in pursuing your dream of climbing these mountains - The amount of training and preparation you did for the Everest climb was - INSANE .....You were like a Terminator ...LIKE a Freaking Robot ....nothing was gonna stop u ......ENOUGH RESPECT ...
I was never really an Everest candidate, but I‘ve always dreamed about standing on top of it. This is the first doc where I really felt like I was there. Thanx so much for your upload, wish you all the best!
This may be one of if not the best documentary I’ve ever watched on any of the 7 summits. You documented it so well, fantastic work! I’m also impressed on how good your guides and entire team was. The guide seems like the perfect kinda guy for it. 👏
Any other documentary you recommend from 7 summits??
This is probably one of the best Everest Videos I have seen. It’s so comprehensive and really shows it how it is. Thank you for taking the time to put it all together.
The nurse in me freaked out whenever your SPO2 was below 90 which was often. It’s amazing you could function like that.
I can only mirror what others have already said: Up there with the best Everest climb docs there are! Equal parts humour and stress. I'd buy this , on BR if it were available.
I wanted to watch a 10 min video max... ended up watching the whole thing! After watching the Nims Purja documentary, this is a good follow-up inspiration. The dream is real.
Haha I just watched 14 peaks too, that made me interested in other climbing videos!
@@theimpaler2317 haha same here
Ive literally just done the same thing wtf lmao
@@davidjones-bh5xg looking at this video I was confused why he didn’t go straight up and would go back and forth from a lower camp to a higher camp, then I realized it’s for aclimatization. When you watch 14 peaks, you see Nims do most ascends in just one day or just one go. Only after watching this video seeing how a normal person usually climbs Peaks did I realize how great a climber Nims is to do all those mounts in one go!
@@theimpaler2317 Thanks. Was wondering why as well!
A fantastic documentary, by far the best Everest material online. What a journey and huge respect for the way you went about this.
I get goosebumps anytime I see the view at the summit. And I'm not even there! So, SO beautiful, all the stars, seeing a 360 sunset/sunrise, the clonds below. I can't imagine and I feel so happy and proud for the brave ones who made it and got that view. *now im emotional* 😂💜❤
This video was emotional, overwhelming, and oh man the views! When Patrick said, "Olivia, you and I made it!!", I literally lost it!
I really believe in my heart that Everest is truly a god and not just a mountain only!
Congratulations on a doc that brings us along virtually at your elbow. The scenery is magnificently shown.
SPO² readings of 74 would seriously concern doctors in a hospital setting. I get concerned when I see 89 flying my glider on oxygen and start exhaling through pursed lips to raise my oxygen level. The extra pressure helps asorbtion. You lose IQ points as your oxygen level goes down.
After all that intensive conditioning we still see the sherpas running circles around the mountaineers, carrying up their sleeping bags and setting up their tents. Genes help.
The hike up to the South Col is amazing scenery, but it looks a crowd scene.
@SUPERGamingJSR don't even bother responding to these people. They all should go practice what they preach. Im sure they would stfu after their experience.
O Jesus!! A FACE!!!!! You guys!!!! Look at the clouds 4:06 !! OMG!!! Between the peaks when he says disaster strikes.. the face !!!! Do you see it???
The headaches he describes that he woke up in the middle of the night is reminiscent of "early morning headaches" due to hypoventilation and C02 buildup.
@@jenniferwilson7762 oh wow! I do see it! (Sorry. I know this was 4 weeks ago). But thank you for pointing that out!
Thank you for sharing your journey. At 70 don't think I could do the trip to the top. But I savored every moment of your trip. Felt like I was in your boots. Thanks again for making this. Incredible video
Thank you for making this. It seems like there aren’t a lot of vids that show the logistics of getting up the mountain and how much goes into it. I really appreciate you showing everything including the acclimation hiking. I never realized how long you stay on the mountain while acclimating. On top of that, you show how beautiful this mountain is. The ice pyramids were absolute stunning. Thanks for making this.
Just went to Patrick’s blog and read the aftermath article he wrote, and wow was that stuff about franz surprising. I wouldn’t think someone would be so unprepared to do this and then not even give a thanks to the people who saved his life.
There white and listen to Dave matthews and weird music. Doesn’t surprise me
I wonder why people with no experience get a permit.
Why people can „buy“ a Summit and get excepted into a organized group without proof that they did some high altitude mountaineering.
Also why he didn’t get „kicked out“ after it was clear that he wasn’t in any way prepared.
He was so inexperienced that he wasn’t even aware that people risk their life to safe him.
… and to egotistical to admit it afterwards.
People like him try to conquer Everest every year. Some are not coming back, many still thinking is was major accomplishment not having any clue that other people risking their lives for them.
My heart goes out to all the Sherpa’s without their work and experience only few would be able to stand on that summit.
@@Tommybouy666*They're...
Patrick saying "Olivia, you and I made it" at the top was so wholesome. Great doc
Great video. I really have respect for the men who didn’t make it to the summit. I’ve always enjoyed watching these videos but I couldn’t understand when their were guys with families back home who ended up losing their lives attempting to summit. As a father myself to two young boys it made me mad thinking those men choose the thrill of climbing a mountain over their job and responsibilities as a parent. Nothing but respect those three guys didn’t risk theirs and others by pushing on. This was definitely the best documentary showing the actual journey
I have the same thoughts as you. Very selfish in so many ways-from training for at least a year before, being gone for at. least 3 months and the cost, if you can't pick up a sponsor or two.
I think about the Australian that was speaking to his wife while descending. He knew he wasn't going to make it down. He and his wife decided on the name for their baby girl that was due any day. He died within minutes after speaking to her. He was stuck in a severe storm that took his life.
I'm not a mountaineer however I found this documentary and have to say that this was unbelievably professional to the letter. It seemed like there was no contingency you didn't think of right from the get go. I'm old now and weathered but have to give you a really really high 5. Well done !!!
Outstanding production values on this! I'm 45, and it's amazing how far audio/visual technology has come in my lifetime. Growing up would have required watching this in 480i broadcast or VHS. Now in 2022 I can watch a 4K/UHD video that puts me right on the highest mountain in the world! Thank you so much for this documentary.
Most excellent and perhaps most 'human' account of an Everest climb I've seen. So many films simply just gloss over important details of the how's and why's.
Bravo! This is a truly inspiring story and you did a magnificent job documenting and narrating it. Congrats on reaching the summit. You and your friend deserved it!
Loved this! Thank you for taking us along with you on the Everest adventure 🙏🏼

Very useful. Thanks. The effort the climbers put into climbing Everest is exhausting just watching the video.
@@Honey_Daddy I swear, people who follow Lorne share some deeper psychology- cuz I be seein y'all everywhere 🙆🏽♀️. I mean, Lorne watchers watch Tcap, watch true crime- surprise, surprise, right? But how do so many of us happen to also enjoy watching mountaineering or dying on an underwater cave videos? 🤔
@@poutinedream5066 absolutely. Yep, I see you all over as well. I think those of us who are found in these various types of videos regularly are of one type and the other Lorne watchers are of one of two others. There are the pure pedo haters, the creeps overcompensating, and then us, the people who are truly intrigued with the wonders of life and want to experience a piece of as much as we can. I'm a huge learner and I enjoy myself most taking in new information, learning of other experiences I don't intend to have, and seeing how vastly different the human experience is from one person to the next. My guess is, you're the same. We are intrigued with people. Lorne, cyrax, they're odd people who are fascinating. Sickening and horrible people, but fascinating. What drives them? Keeps them going? How can they keep living when I'd just end it If I were them? It draws my curiosity and I can't help but indulge that. I'm curious if you agree to my characterization, or if you view it differently.
This was one of the most in depth Everest docs I have ever watched. Excellent effing work man. I love the fact that both you and Patrick took the training and preparation seriously. Respect from Toronto.
Wow! I've seen just about every doc about Everest and i gotta say, this was THE best one I've ever seen! Excellent audio, editing, just the whole thing! Thanks for letting me live vicariously through you and your climbing partners. 😊
Absolutely the best film of one of the greatest adventures the world has to offer. At my age, it’s not an option so I can’t thank you enough for making it real!
This is (BY FAR) the best and most complete documentary about Mt. Everest I’ve ever seen! Congratulations!
Loved every second of this documentary truly. 💕💕 Although, I have to admit the moment that I really actually lost it was when Patrick said “Olivia, you and I made it!!!!!!” 😭❤️ so sweet
Thanks Jordan. I lost it too.
Wow, just WOW! I've watched countless Mountaineering films and documentaries and this one is the BEST bar none! I felt part of every single effort involved in reaching that tantalising beast of the Everest summit. Thanks to you, I have a much better appreciation of what this endeavour entails. Fantastic job to the entire crew and a special shout out to the AMAZING Sherpas!
Professional mountaineer reaches the peak once: "Yeah! I made it! I've climbed the Everest!"
His sherpa who's done it dozens of times: "Hold my water, will you."
I am not even remotely into mountain climbing (hiking in the mountains is awesome, though), but I really enjoyed your documentary. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with all of us. Next best thing to actually doing it, imho.
"Climbing up Is optional , climbing down is mandatory"... Best quote I've ever read about everest 👍👍👍👍🏴🏴🏴🏴
I’m a pilot. Pilots say “takeoffs are optional, landings are mandatory.”
I don't do mountaineering, but i have a morbid fascination with documentaries about this topic which flares up once every couple of years. So i've watched a lot of this 90s VHS rip 360p stuff as well as more recent content. But this one was different, very well done. Two hours flew by like nothing, it was impressive to come along on your journey to the top of the world.
This is fantastic. You did this for the right reasons, and have proper respect to the landscape and its people. Awesome job recording the entire experience as well!
I can’t believe there’s a paved road and parking lot at Chinese Everest base camp. It’s so different from the Nepal side where you trek for a week just to reach base camp. Such an amazing view of Everest from Tibet. If Everest was an American mountain we’d have a 5 star resort hotel and visitor’s center at Chinese base camp.
so true...
Wow! this is an amazing documentary. This guy trained properly for years but there's no way he could beat the Sherpas ability to carry heavy loads in those mountains. That's amazing!
watching this during lockdown. I will never be able to do this but wow what an amazing watch. well produced, filmed and documented.
never say never
Lockdown been over?
Well if you had been training all lockdown, you’d be up there right now.
This is in the upper quartile of the top quartile of all the mountaineering accounts of Everest I have seen. I'm stunned at how good it was. I was making the journey with you guys and felt a positive energy the whole way up, back down, back up, back down....well, you get the idea. Thanks so much for sharing this wacky mission of climbing until you can't climb any higher. Remember this, Work hard, climb hard, and play hard.
Heads, shoulders and mountains, this is by far the best Everest documentary this couch climber has ever seen.
This was probably the most powerful video on Everest I have seen. As someone who is planning on attempting the Journey to the Himalayas to summit the top of the highest point on earth, I really appreciate you taking the time to make this for people like my self. I will definitely have this video on repeat as I train! Thank you!
You make it yet?
Did you do it this spring?
Good luck !
Hi, I’m Zach. I’m 16 and my friend and I are working on climbing some of the tallest mountains in the Northeastern US. I’ve been in relatively poor shape for most of my life and only started making an effort to get fit back in February. I’ve since lost 25 pounds and have buffed up a bit. I love Everest content and my life goal is to climb K2. I had recently lost motivation to continue pushing forward but this documentary has given me a renewed view of what I want to achieve. Thank you so much. I wish you nothing but the best in the future. Congrats on Everest!
Really appreciate this documentary. This is the only one that I've found that provided a lot of details on the acclimatization rotations plus all the preps before the actual summit. Most often the documentaries I saw were much shorter and brief which never spoke to the truth how much more prep and effort were spent before actually heading up the mountain. Absolutely incredible, thank you for sharing.
This Everest documentary is the best I have seen! And I have seen a lot! Congrats to you and Patrick for summiting!! Definitely would like to summit Everest one day as well.
A bit too many close ups of his face.
I didn't realize I went from 17 minutes to around 40 minutes. I'm so interested and fascinated on this documentary.
Lmao same, I usually lose myself from watching documentaries 😭
@@akionyx310 To me it really depends on the documentary
@@FreyaMeows I am usually into almost anything relating to documentaries, especially on nature and adventure of the world. All of it is so interesting and inspires me to see some of these locations someday, because these stories are so fucking cool. 😎
I’ve seen a lot of Everest documentaries on CZcams and this is the first time I feel I’m actually right there with you through the whole process. Well done. I only been to the base camp on Nepal side but scenery on China side is quite similar. Thanks for reminding me the great memories I had at the foothills of Everest. I will never forget it.
How did Michael Mathews perish with all of his mates around him, they must have forsaken him, I guess they had their reasons.
