Hindu Kush: The TRAGIC fall of two climbers on Tirich Mir
Вставка

- Hindu Kush is one of the greatest mountain ranges in the world. It lies between Afghanistan and northwest Pakistan. It has more than two dozen peaks higher than 7,000 meters and numerous 6,000’ers. Most of the 7000-meter mountains lie in northwest Pakistan and the Afghan province of Badakhshan.
At 7,708 meters, Tirich Mir is the highest peak in the Hindu Kush and the highest mountain outside of the Himalaya and Karakoram. The other three highest mountains of Hindu Kush are Noshaq 7,492 meters, Istor-o-Nal 7,403 meters, and Saraghrar 7,340 meters. Tirich Mir is a massif of eleven peaks, many of them higher than 7,000 meters.
In this video, we'll throw light on the early ascents of Tirich Mir. Later in the video, the story of a South Korean expedition in 1995 will also be discussed when two of its members summited Tirich Mir late in the evening, but then fell to their deaths on the descent in dark between summit and Camp 4.

Don't listen to the others, you did well here. Keep it up 😉
Very well done sir. That was a lot of information about Terich Mir. I am planning for the base camp of Terich Mir and would hopefully push a little bit up. A truly wonderful site to visit
Thanks for bringing forth this tale!
// Shipton! I would like to see hear your telling of his epic exploration of the Rishi Gorge and attempt to enter the Nanda Devi Sanctuary, and subsequent bare escape to civilization. Shipton and companion. I read the account ... this is in you know, the Indian Himalayan Society, or Journal, they have been around for over a century having meetings and publishing. And also in a book I have of collected writings. You know, you could include, maps, old photos, may be some bits about the paths to monasteries near Kedarnath. I read a piece, again in a book of collected writings, by Peter Matthiessen who was trying to find ancient priest paths, they could cover far away places using crazy shortcuts. If memory serves these two different accounts take place in some of the same passes and gorges and or valleys. And the whole area now is developing.
The books of collected writings I have, if anyone interested, are called EPIC and HIGH, edited by Clint Willis, cant remember the publishing house. Late 90s slash turn century.
Cheers
Love ur accent bro

Could you please add subtitles to all your video? For people with not good learning of English it might be very helpful
Thanks for your suggestion. I’ve added subtitles to all of my videos.
Everytime i see Hindu kush i think about their famous weed if the same name...then i hit my vape and giggle.
My man has run out.

Hhhmmm Interesting Story but Naturally very Sad ofcourse !! The Attitude of their fellow Climbers is ofcourse very strange and unusual however they will B Judged when they come infront of our CREATOR ?? Thanks Good Story !! 😊😊
Can't understand anything that was said
English subtitles can be a great help. I had no problems, but sometimes I listen/ watch a video once with subtitles and then enjoy it again, knowing the content. Hth🙂
Thanks I'll try that.
