- To Stand Above The Clouds. Rex Pemberton's record breaking climb of Mt Everest.
At Twenty one years of age, mountaineer Rex Pemberton set off to become the youngest Australian to climb Mt Everest. This story is inspirational.
Excellent documentary. For such a young man, Rex demonstrated the correct attitude and temperament to climb Mount Everest. He respected the mountain and the challenge in reaching the summit and also knew the limits of his own body.
Kudos to the parents for properly raising Rex. I'm sure they played a big part instilling these traits displayed by their son.
Yes its nice when mommy and daddy can support, not only morally but most important economic-:)
I cringed at 31:47 when your girlfriend was being 'carried' up the mountain on a Sherpa's back..coz you can afford it??? Just looks soooooooo wrong! Otherwise a good story.
It was my sister and the Sherpa's really wanted to do it, because she was spending two months in Base Camp with us. They are such lovely humble people.
+Rex Pemberton That was diabolical. Was she injured? sick? looks like abuse imho. Sherpas should not be treated like that even for a photo shoot.
A sherpa has never even carried my own bag, I would not dream of it. Even a mule has not carried my load. If you can't make it up the mountain, don't go.
If you were paying the sherpas peanuts they'd have told you to go to hell.
Not good. Hope you never take her on the mountain again. She was there for moral support at the cost to others.
Sherpas are humble enough to not refuse, that is their fault - but upset them and good luck to them. Money talks.
+john doe That's like saying "If you can't fly to the moon yourself, don't go." The Sherpas make a living this way. No one is holding a gun to their head.
you try walking up those rocks for miles on a broken ankle.
+ThenNowNext That was not his girl friend being carried. It was his sister. Also she was not being carried because he could afford it. She twisted her ankle guys. She went with him to mentally support him witch I think IS A PRETTY AWESOME thing.Out of all the great things this KID accomplished and all the positive things you can take from this story and you guys are blinded by WHAT? Someone being carried because they twisted there ankle? W.T.F. is wrong with people these days .If you don't have something nice to say then just don't say it.
Now if you would have really listened you would know that he had to get sponsored by multiple sponsors to even make an attempt to climb Mount Everest . It takes around 20 days just to get to base camp . I'm guessing not a one of you negative ass holes could even get to base camp much less summit and summit on a year when there was very few . You guys could not make it to base camp if a fuking sherpa did carry you.I honestly would like to just smack the taste out of your mouth . RESPECT
Should have done it 8 years earlier and made Jordan eat pie. Age 13 climbing Everest ...and 7 summits before 16. It's the desire to be 1st by ANY standard it seems. Not too take away from your love for climbing, but 1st anything that is country based is silly. Try it again at 81 and then you can break an actual record. Yuichiro will be long dead by then, so he won't complain :) THEN AGAIN...that crazy Japanesse bugger did it at 70,75 and 80.....Man is a beast
Everest and mountains like it should be avoided, especially by those who have loved ones.
Great job Rex. Very humble and down to earth ... This is a few of the good attributes you poses that made for a successful summit. As for the naysayers and haters, if you were blessed with the same financial backing as Rex, you would probably climb Everest too. The insults and negative comments only show the kind of human being you are.
very nice documentary, spanning the whole process of the journey of this amazing challenge and giving the points of view of the family members. What I miss though, is the reflection that all this and all the preparatory expeditions and journeys must have enjoyed quite a financial injection of the parents (I guess)? I know you worked for sponsorship, but that does not cover all the previous years of this hobby. It would be nice for your peers who spend their same young years working their asses off 6 days a week to establish something of a future, to be able to understand what made this life possible for you financially in your youth years. Otherwise said: it´s a really nice film, but with a bit of a degree of ´mom and dad will pay´ and have paid for much of this, almost limitlessly.
Jealous much?
I wanted to climb the traditional route Ed Hillary and Tenzing took. Looks of amazing history on the south side of Everest.
What a great achievement! Finally a well made and totally honest full length documentary without a lame professional narrator overdramatizing everything. Loved the subtle music; so much better than the typical Discovery way of doing it.
You mean without your Sherpa you'd have NO CHANCE!! Less of a chance?? Come on bro..if you had to make your own tea , get all you snow/ice for water and set up tents .. it's an awesome accomplishment but better more seasoned climbers say themselves ..without the Sherpa's they wouldn't have the chance..and that's not them just being nice ..it's being realistic. Good video though congratulations
Thanks for all the amazing comments! You all rock for watching!
I probably don't have a say for the simple fact that I'm not a "climber" but for me to hear this guy say he was in a "shitty little camp" and that he was "in the worst place he could be" as he was "safely" recording himself and "resting" inside of a tent somewhat warmer than out on the side of the mountain made me perceive this guy was NOT RESPECTING the MOTHER GODESS with the utmost to give. Know what I mean? Respect the Mountain and it'll respect you back. Just the way he talked about being there, was so condescending and put offish. Sounded like he lost sight of the big picture. *IMO MY 2 CENTS*
Walking up a fixed rope using oxygen carried up by sherpa. You didn‘t climb anything when this is the was you approach mountainiering.
It's exhausting how every video of Everest has the same exact story about how miserable everything is. How dangerous and life threatening literally every second of this climb is. Every single one loves to talk about themselves and the "Death Zone" and how many have died and are left there. It's not the summit or the quest, it's about the danger, it's all about the Death Zoooooooooooooooone!
But its nice to see a climber just to do it because he enjoys it, and not for recognition and ego. You have a great attitude! Good luck
I'm sorry I wont accept the comments. I am a rock climber in the humble peak district of the UK. I have trekked in this region and regardless of his financial situation he has a desire to climb Everest. Personally not only can I not afford to climb Everest but I wouldn't want to. I like peace and quiet when I climb, so no people around me so I can appreciate the surroundings. Climbing with many people puts me off, but that aside I wouldn't have the time to train or my wife would not allow me. However I appreciate Rex's determination to do this, it takes finance to do this and he did it. So for me regardless of his position, he did for him. Mountaineering or rock climbing is personal. You climb for you and no one else and as far as I am concerned he did that.
Rex my man............ That was fantastic, I loved it.
I don't climb but what an amazing documentary, please make more, as for Ed the Yank ?? He seems like a good guy to me, I still have my Dads ashes, but he can stay at my Mums, he's happy on the fireplace. Great stuff lads ;-)
It's obvious his parents paid for the everest expedition by the comments they made ?
This is one of my favorite Mt Everest documentaries. I think Rex systematically approached his climb in the correct way, he trained hard, and summited other major mountains such as Kili first. Way to go Rex! My son, a US Marine, will be climbing a mountain in Peru this fall as part of warriors climb and I so wish I was younger as I would do it in a heart beat. I clearly understand the desire to climb. I will have to live vicariously through videos made by guys like Rex. Congrats!
summit K2 and it will make you seem less of a poser. SHERPAS RULE!
Well obviously.. why even comment this unless its your ego that made you upset at this lad ? K2, K7, annapurna, all are harder mountains, when did he claim this was the hardest ? It's simply just the highest. And i don't believe he ever said anything bad about the Sherpa people either. They are indeed the true heroes of the expeditions who use them.
@@skobird2732 Keep climbing dangerous mountains and yes your luck eventually runs out. He climbed Everest for his own reasons.
Mama is a whole mood about the mountain climbing...priceless! 😂
I am higher than Sir Edmund Hillary, oh geez im so stoned
Ian Lee 😂😂😂
I feel bad for laughing at this comment .. lol
Me gustó mucho tu documental pero como no hablo ingles muchas cosas no las entiendo, podrías subtitularlo. Saludos desde Monterrey, Mexico.
Great Job Rex- Greatness is born not created- There is a lot of what you have done that has been nurtured into you from your amazing family and all your hard work over the years. However, 90% of the drive and the motivation comes from a place deep within you that has always been there- The mountains were calling you before you knew it. You were always meant to do this! You have inspired so many people to only believe in the limits inside of them! You have given a voice to young adventurers & entrepreneurs everywhere! Keep up the great work, Keep us updated bro, Cheers
They didnt climb the mountain but made it possible for him to do it.
I hope you get a ton of 🐱 in your lifetime Rex.
It was a nice video.. Can I climb with you? I am willing to learn.You're amazing.
You know what ........ I'll stay here with Caroline , here at sea level ....... your documentary is superb ......for sure ....... but your sister is more superb than any mountain in the world .......!!!
Fantastic, well done.
When the Pemberton family don't take each other seriously, they manage to avoid shattering the aspirant. Wish more families could emulate that! Lovely family!
Im only 8 minutes in, but this is amazing doc!!
Since 10 hours I watch all the videos there are about reaching Mt. Everest. Now its your documentary. Wow! I am blown away by your experience, will power and archivement. Amazing! Congrats! Thanks for sharing! Unbelievable amazing and wow, wow, wow!
Thank you all for such positive and motivational messages. It makes me want to set a new goal of climbing K2.
Scary K2
Great Documentary Rex. I really enjoyed watching.
Probably the best video I've seen on UA-cam. Congratulations on making the summit. One helluva good job!! (And the same to Ed, and Da Sona Sherpa, too)!
Hi Yes, there is one swear word I believe. The rating for the film is PG -13. it has been used in Australian schools, you may want to review the film fully before showing it. Thanks Rex
Lol., every time i want to reply to year a year a has gone past for every reply you make. How do you get the money to climb? Its like 50 grand or more, now
@1:33 "I climbed my first alpine peak in Peru and Bolivia. There are some geographical and grammatical errors here. Alpine peaks are in Europe, specifically in the Alpine region which covers 8 countries. Peru and Bolivia are not one of these 8 countries, as they are in South America, not Europe. "peak" in his sentence should have been plural, since it was in two places, Peru, and Bolivia.
Later he describes the temperature on Kilamanjaro as minus 15 degrees. He does not tell us if it was Centigrade, Fahrenheit, Kelvin or what. That is rather like saying the mountain was 5,895 high or 19,341 high.
Yankees tend to due similar language when they describe a place as being for example "2 hours away" or "15 minutes away".
Time does not tell us anything about the distance unless it is qualified by more information, such as the mode of travel.
2 hours walking would be roughly between 6 and 8 miles, whereas, by car, horse, jet, skateboard or pogo-stick, the distance would vary considerably.
I wish all the docu were like this, without anyone dying.
Adversity is life.
Thanks for this video! I will be spending about three weeks in the villages surrounding Mount Everest later this year to help the people there. I just launched a UA-cam channel called The Summit Push and will be documenting all of it. I go to Nepal every year. Thanks again for your video!
You're an honest guy Rex. She must have noticed it as well and offered you guys a safe summit. very well done!
No mention who sponsered him. From fresh point of view….meaning the wonder young people enjoy …..this video while climbing alone sounds like a monumental comittment up there! To realize you did not turn around when conditions became unbearable…..stay with you forever huh? I once needed to visualize my my dead brother mother sister as angles with strings pulling me up by my shoulders and top of head to keep me moving forward emotionally caring for my geriatric dad…..he visualized his family for each step through a hard part and i just know it was that hard. Like his dad said….its hard to imagine!
Very entertaining video, thanks! I’ve got “Everest documentary fever” and thought I’d seen them all; glad to have found this one. I wonder how the young man’s climbing career has gone in the intervening years?
Really good job on the documentary, Rex. Heartfelt, comprehensive, informative. I loved seeing your family interviewed too.
Youre on base 3 camp with no shirt on. If it was that warm, there is no way the ice and snow wont melt. It cant be more than 30 degrees right there. Climbers always walking around with no jacket just to show people how much of a bad ass they are, which theyre not
We prude of our professional mountaineers Azim gheychisaz from Iran who climbed 14 peak over than 8000 meters
It's always nice to see someone spending their parents money wisely. Well done chap!!! If you ever need a climbing partner, im experienced with my own gear.👍
Was wondering why you didnt climb from the NC? It was open the year you climbed wasn't it?
Congrats and if I can get the sponsorship Im going to attempt it in 2 years.
I dream of climbing Everest I would do absolutely anything idk why but it's my biggest dream to get to the top
YEAHHHH I am so happy for you mate!
On my opinion It was one of the most beautiful video on Everest i ve seen so far :)
I ve never climbed in my life but I think it doesn't matter, I was there with u, u brought us all so close into ur own experience and u let us live it with u, thank u so much for this...If u ever come to London u r invited for dinner! Really! :)
Have a great life with great adventures
Excellent video. One of the best I've seen on climbing Everest. Ignore the haters commenting from their mother's basement - they are only displaying their ignorance.
Get off your high horse Osi Mara. Climbing doesnt have to be selfish, majority of mountaineers know their limits and would never risk someone else's life. Yes there are some rich idiots that do the sport for the status, but that is a small fraction. How about you go climb some peaks for yourself and see what it is actually like. I have made closer friends in 10mins on a mountain than in 10years elsewhere.
Awesome documentary man! Hard work really pays off!
Have you climbed K2 and if not, is that a goal of yours?
It looks like you trained for K2. You’re in waaay better shape than most of the people who attempt everest
we are proud of our nepal
You must have been well pissed off when you lost your goggles. Great job though but your eyes suffered a bit
such an amazing documentary !!
I find your documentary intresting. Do things when you are young ans ambition.
Great job!!!
Loved watching this documentary!
Congrats Rex ...... loved the film ... Thanks for the upload !!!
I still don't know why until this day people insist on climbing mountains. it has become a joke and a dangerous tourist attraction. the first death of this year has already been recorded, a poor sherpa who paid the ultimate price so that more people die. its sickening to know they use the bodies of past climbers as landmarks! i can think of hundreds of ways to feel alive without exposing myself to frostbite, avalanches, exposure etc..
sherpas are straight beast.. id like to take one to the gym just to see what they could do at sea level
LOVE IT GOD BLESS ..K2 NEXT
I had sweaty palms watching this, and at times I had tears in my eyes. I was rooting for you. It was awesome to see you make the summit. You earned it. This was a great video man!
you need to acclimatize, so you up. But after that your body needs to heal, so you go down again. You can go down for a day no problem and still be acclimatized when you go back up.
Feel truly alive is a relative statement, as opposed to feeling truly dead
Excellent documentary Rex, thanks!
Take the North side so you don't go through the Icefall
i like this part of getting ready for a climb....the preparation, the rituals like offerings and asking permission of the mountain etc.....i have often wondered WHAT people DO past having the "want to....." thanks----very educational and....a bit better understanding....although....may never FULLY understand.....but that's jus' me.....
Who was that violinist????
inspiration for me !!!!
The best prepared climber I've watched on UA-cam but in the beginning when Red was showing his Mask and Goggles; I was thinking, I hope he has backup goggles, oxygen mask,m and gloves. I like that blood oxygen meter and oxygen chart he had. I could never attempt to Climb Everest but if I were able to I would try.
This by far was the best Everest documentary I’ve ever watched. UA-cam started recommending me Everest videos about a month ago - all have left me unfulfilled.
I’m done watching Everest videos now. Absolutely perfect. Well done. Many blessings to you and your family.
Great job and an excellent film, esp just in your 20s (don't try K2: too dangerous)
Do you know how many Sherpa were needed to get you to the top?
Avalanches though! Crazy testosterone
How has this not got more views......
Just finnished, so amazing
Do you plan to climb Mount Everest again in your lifetime? Absolutely amazing and inspiring video for me to go out and achieve any and all of both my dreams and goals.
No he doesn't! He says bumfluff beard! The swearword used was shitty.
I think this is one of the best documentaries I have watched on everest, because of how many details you provided on how you felt, did, and thought. Really well done thanks
Love seeing the desire and passion involved in real mountaineering. As long as you remember the most important goal. The most important goal in mountaineering is not to summit, rather the most important goal is to always get HOME safely.
Great production on this video. Great job, Rex! I went to base camp two years ago, and I'm in awe of the climbers who can complete the summit journey.
How does such a young man have extra $50,000 to spend on this?
og jenny they get sponsors, that’s what he was doing on the phone before he left for Nepal. His jacket says youngest Australian so I’m guessing that’s the angle he used to get the money to afford the climb.
you are extremely awesome!!!!i love climbing and hiking but could not dare trying on ice mountain =-Oi guessed i could die :-/
Amazing! Best doc out there!
Your video convinced me to be a climber soon!!
I just got finished watching your video. Words are difficult but I wish to say I have watched many videos on climbing high mountains and yours is one of the best on the net. I had no idea how long someone spends on the mountain going up and down for many various reasons -- mostly to acclimatize. Your journey was for me a sacred experience and a perfect example of will over mind. Your descriptions matched so well to what we all were seeing in the camera. Cold, as a sensation you were directly experiencing dosent come accross as well as when the wind is blowing ---- then we can feel what you were feeling . . . kinda'.
Have you climed K2? Are you going to climb K2? Did you see the Russian base jump from Everest? Maybe that's next. In any case your video brought much tears to my eyes. You are an excellent example of an evolved human being --- thanks for sharing
I loved his story, one of my favorites, You’ve done a great job the man I am proud of you you have such a sweet family I loved your mom she was so cute I’m a man of a son that looks a lot like you and he wanted to fly helicopters I did not want him to so I can only imagine what your mom with you thank you for sharing your story with us your life especially awesome
Fab documentary. I’ve watched so many and this was the most emotional I have seen, it had me in tears. Well done Rex!
Until you've climbed Mt. Snowdon you've seen nothing yet!!! ;) Well, technically its just a bit of a hill. Any suggests on a mountain to climb that is cushy but a bit of a trek and at least 3000m high??? And one where there aren't any wolves or scarey threats like that??? In the UK there really is only Snowdon and Ben Nevis one at 1086m and the other 1388m, I think they aren't really mountains but big hills. I think a mountain should be at least 1 mile high.
Hey Rex your buddy looked like he had frostbite on his fingers..what happened with that?
Well done anyway, now that I've climbed Snowdon recently (but admittedly I did it before that at 12 yrs old and my sister at 9, like 23 years ago) I want to see a mountain go on and on...you know, looking up and thinking, WOW, where is the summit? Ben Nevis is about 300 meters higher, but I like to see something 3000 meters up...I'm not tackling Everest though...lmao! Or K2, I leave that to the professionals.
Did he say he climbed an "alpine" peak in Peru and Bolivia? Lol.
Ann Nee i heard that too, lol
13 year old American boy has now submitted! Amazing work for everyone who have the determination to conquer that mountain!
the money as well.
Awesome !! Very happy for you Rex !!! Great job, great video !!! God bless you on your future journey's !!!
Oh, thanks for the map and base camps. It helped me see the path i couldnt picture in my head before
Amazing, Rex. Wish you an equally great success in the rest of your life!
Please watch the entire film to review and see if it's suitable for your class. Off the top of my head I can't remember the exact word used.
Very good summit push
Nice work mate
