the frist year he ran out of gas near the top and a sherpa
had to drag his bullshitting butt out the mountain.
the second year hurts his hand and places his team
in harms way. lies about it. a sherpa and guide have to push his butt to the top. again more of his bullshit.
then has to be double roped to get off the mountain
but now claims to be a expert..
the only honest one is the english man who wanted
to be the frist to transverse everest.. but realized that it would be a sherpa that did it not him.
also thin air ,,,it is 21 % o2 on the top just as at sea level.. the partial pressure is less at the top. so it is light air not thin air

The drive and desire of the climbers is amazing. We truly enjoyed watching and learning. It just makes you wonder how they did it years ago without all the exceptional gear and teamwork the Russell's team had orchestrated. Thank you for sharing...

For those of us who made it to the base camp 1, the show brought back good memories and reminded me the special bond among those who took a shot. It reminds us to respect the mountain and also gives an unique prospective of our daily life. It is a excellent show, despite the controversies behind the filming of a dying climber. Like Russ said, it is not anyone's job to die along with someone else's ambition. Existence is a harsh reality at that altitude. It would be like trying to stage a rescue of the Apollo 13 crews. Any way, excellent show.... It is amazing show. For those of us who made it to the base camp 1, the show brought back good memories and reminded me the special bond among those who took a shot.

I actually took a shot at it myself, but only got up to the 1st Base Camp. I knew I wouldn't get far. I'm just not insane... my life is more important than that achievement.
