  • In 1976 two British soldiers completed the first successful all military expedition to the summit of Everest. To celebrate this endeavour, the Army return 30 years later to conquer Everest once more. The plan: To tackle the peak via the treacherous "West Ridge", a notoriously dangerous climb that has only been completed by 19 people.

    The first movie that mentions Hristo Prodanov! No foreign movie ever said about the first man climbed Everest from the deadliest west ridge alone with no supplemental oxygen. 👏🏻

    Everest looks beautiful yet terrifying at the same time. She definitely makes it clear who the boss is.

    Wow amazing stuff never even knew this series exsisted really enjoyed it as although I have seen plenty on the north and south side the west ridge is a whole new board game and the risks far graeter.Also the Britsh army team give you a more "real" outlook than the Discovery programmes which although good always have a bit of a made for tv look to them.Thanks again for posting.

    The true west ridge from Nepal basecamp up the Lho la, up the west shoulder and then staying on the ridge to the top is climbing the west ridge, this is lower west ridge onto the north face.

    Respect that the arm were doing the lead climbing and not relying on Sherpa to do it.

    Listening to the narrator, I can't help seeing images of a Monty Python sketch in my mind.

    australians pioneered this route in 1982 (lincoln hall was on the trip but didnt make it to the top). they also did it without oxygen. is on utube

    Why you didn’t try west ridge direct? It’s possible and no avalanche danger!

    This is a army and still they let the sherpa's do the hard and most dangerous work. I do not understand.

    Pfffft, I climbed a taller mountain than Everest. Alone, no ropes, no sherpas, just a few bottles of Firebrand wine and a little horker loaf. Highest peak in all of Tamriel, locals call it Dovahzul, "The Throat of the World".
