Everest's Deadliest Climbing Season | A Deadly Ascent | CNA Documentary

- After the tragic 2019 season, climbers mourn those who lost their lives on Mt. Everest. Some question if stricter regulations are needed to prevent overcrowding and environmental exploitation in: A Deadly Ascent.
This is the untold story of the 2019 Mount Everest tragedy, where 11 people died trying to scale the world’s highest summit. An image that went viral showed a glimpse of what happened that day - a long, continuous line of hundreds of climbers bottlenecked on the summit ridge of Everest, all trying to take advantage of a narrow window to get to the top.
Weaving first-hand accounts from alpinists, Sherpas and those who lost loved ones, find out how and why things went awry. Was the mountain too crowded, and were there too many inexperienced climbers, lured by the magic of the mountain by exploitative companies. And what is the environmental impact caused by the influx of climbers?

I'm proud of the way you worked!🙌
You're truly an inspiration for me & of course for all of us❣Hats off to you...👏
Thank you so much 😀
English please
Rizza Alee was an absolute brilliant man that day. His perspective of life expanded the moment he turned and descended. Very impressive from a young man.
I get to know myself more by sitting on the couch with a cup of coffee.
Same!
It’s a very good way to know yourself and be able to be alive the next day.
These people spend so much money to take unbelievably foolish chances.
I think you must be deranged to want to where humans are not designed to go, dependent on weather conditions to survive.
Me as well, I have my cup now ☕️...nice, warm an relaxed 😌 😎
Me too.. But we’re wired differently.. I try not to judge but I can’t look away, either..
38:40
Intelligent young man saved his own precious life.
I cannot imagine the temptation of looking right up close at that summit.
He still had the good discernment to know you have also got to make it back down.
Everyone agreed! Rizza Alee, you made a quick decision that gave you another chance to greatness!🙏🏿😊👍🏿
The young man made the right decision, but it had to have been soooooo difficult. But he can still say he climbed Everest, which is a HUGE accomplishment, He didn't summit...but he's alive!
Im very impressed by the drive of that young man, along with his mature mentality towards the situation. Very wise young man!
I am just a simple mountaineer. If you want to climb Everest, here are your basic considerations:1. you must be extremely fit physically. 2. You must have a reasonable amount of experience and technical ability.3.You must have incredible mental stamina and determination to push through an incredibly uncomfortable experience. 4. You MUST accept the fact that you may not return home.
Most people will have some fitness, but the personal conviction that one's fitness is sufficient may, in reality, fall well short of what is actually required to reach the top of the world. Most people do not have the patience to climb different types of peaks and routes and, under different conditions, take courses, etc., to culminate with an attempt at this monster. Even on smaller peaks, summit fever can push you on, and that is what may kill you in the end. Finally, at that very moment when a climber realizes that he or she is about to die, I wonder how many of them regret the choice they made to undertake this adventure.
I would not consider a couple of dozen deaths per season a large number. I actually think the mountain is showing some degree of kindness to the mass of climbers that arrive annually with their dreams. Remember, Man is not meant to survive or thrive at that altitude.
Also, has there ever been someone who reached the summit who then had the humility to return home and not brag to everyone they know that "I climbed" Everest. I doubt that a lot. If you really climbed the mountain (and I am not good enough to do so), then you should have carried all the shit you needed by yourself and helped carry all that stuff up the mountain, not paying someone else to do it.
Agreed
You should also be single and childless
If they build an escalator to the summit and all I have to do is stand there- I will still die 😂. I don't take anything away from th ones who manage to do it, Sherpas notwithstanding
I watched your video years ago. Its content has stayed with me. It is the most honest, video and the one that has had the deepest impact on me of all the video footage of Everest I have ever watched. I think you are a beautiful soul. So inspirational. I so hope that life brings you so much. I am so glad that you turned back. I wish I could find your original footage that I watched.
Thanks for your comment, you can watch more on my Instagram instagram.com/rizzaalee
My condolences to the departed🙏🏼. A great video. An eye opener if i may. Everest is for the fittest. And this video showed not everyone was fit, besides the fact that there was a traffic jam and a small climbing window. Everyone had a choice to turn back. Glad you showed wisdom and turned back. Your family has you with them today.
Even the fittest and experienced are resting eternally on Everest.
Everest is about choices people make. What a great video!
Not the deadliest climbing season anymore; it’s 2023 with 17 climbing deaths.
It’s just going to get worse. Soon reaching fatalities in the 20’s will be the norm
Rizza, thank you for sharing your story. I wish the best to all the Desi mountaineers.
He's alive for making they right decision by turning around
Its unbelievable how many people making the Everest climb that only think about getting to the top..not even taking into account that you still have to descend which us just as deadly as the climb up.
It takes immense strength to climb Everest, but even more strength to step back when so close to surmounting it. This was so inspirational and overwhelming 👏👏 Kudos to the youngest Kashmiri for making it to the deadliest peak 🏔️
what a nightmare. really puts some perspective on it. "It's a death race" really resonated with me.
There is always something to lose.
.
Majority decisions tend to be made without engaging the systematic thought and critical thinking skills of the individual but the decision you made at that moment and at that age is commendable.
More power to you. May you be blessed with the bestest always. 🌸
Thank you very much Tahoor
@@RizzaAlee especially under conditions where your brain lacked oxygen. You still had great discernment.
Bruh, first off… Thank you! Thank you for showing, IN ACTION, what true mountaineering is. What being a true human being is. The ability to make the decision you made while literally in the SHADOW of your highest goal. You are truly a beautiful person. For being able to recognize that sometimes turning around is the best outcome, even if it’s not the outcome you wanted. I appreciate you, brother. I appreciate your respect for the mountains. For your friends and family and most importantly… The respect for yourself! Be easy, my friend. 👊🏻🏔️💙
WOW…!!! That was worded nicely bro 👍🏼. Nice job 🙌🏼
Great video. Appalled by the trash! RIP to the deceased and my condolences. Good choices made and thank you to Sherpas. This is a deadly profession.
Aw, thinking of you Sharad.. Rest easy Anjali ❤
Great film!
Hello Rizza, I really appreciate you making this video and you did a good job. Thank you 🙏 I can’t believe the prejudice you experienced, it’s not because I don’t believe you, believe me I know. I lose both my legs, so I can’t climb anymore plus I’m too old 65, but keep making videos I’ll support you
Thank you for sharing that I greatly appreciate that
I was proud of you in the documentary.
"I miss you, Anjali" okay. I could not stop the tears! The pain in his voice is palpable. I hope she is resting in Paradise. And I hope Sharad knows he did the right thing. She would have wanted at least one of them to return home to their children... But how heartbreaking. I can't help but to cry for her and her family. 💖
He left her to die while he went to the summit.
@@kinte1870 I think he went to summit first before he realized she was in trouble. They both knew the risks, and I believe he did the right thing. It's sad that she passed away but there's only so much one can do up there.
23:20
we agreed to turn back if either of us feels tired...
@@directionalityThere's no advanced warnings as to what could happen up there...MANY people were making the climb just fine and their bodies gave out suddenly without warning...even people with plenty of oxygen left. The atmosphere up there is brutal and it affects everyone differently. His wife was climbing like everyone and she collapsed. Her oxygen wasn't depleted and the Sherpas were giving her more. Her body just gave out...and it's almost impossible for them to drag you back down without risking their own lives too.
@@kinte1870exactly my point ,he says she's gone ,god damn she's gone because he was a selfless prick who left his wife and went on top for his own ego ,and she dies in his arms ,just pathetic,
Rip Anjali,she happily told him to go on top ,and he comes back to India and makes a street named after Anjali,,it's the best example if you have a partner like Sharad you are going to die
THIS IS REALLY SO TRAGIC...
Indeed it is.
Selfish is a better word. This isn’t tragic, it’s pure selfishness.
Smart man, making that decision. Good for the Sherpa for very likely saving his life. There should be regulations regarding how many can climb at once.
🗻you made a right decision to come back
I am glad.
Braaaavo Rizza…don’t return…you already saw the summit…what a great experience!! ❤
Love you bro
I like to say you are an inspiration for me
Thank you brother , much love
I believe you did the right thing, Rizza.
You may not have summited but you did succeed because you lived to climb another day. To be able to make that difficult decision in the world of mountaineering means you have what it takes to continue to try to conquer the peaks.
No. What a loser. He should have went for it like a real man. Other guy watched his wife die but still went for it. 🤚High five to him. Baller.
Mass tourism kinda perverts what's supposed to be a challenge.
I have done backcountry skiing, ski mountaineering and climbing with my wife, now of 50 years of marriage, personally I would never leave her in dangerous situationsr and be by her side and put her before my own goals. Summit fever brings out the worst in people and is to be avoided if you treasure others more then yourself.
Good decision to listen to your Sherpa, even though I'm certain it was difficult. So heartbreaking to hear that that man lost his wife Anjali due to her running out of oxygen due to the traffic jam 💔 RIP
Also that's bs that your team was anything but!
The line for space mountain at Disneyland. Everybody wants a thrill.
Such an awesome, emotional documentary film.
Salute to you Rizza ❤ 🤗
Rest in peace to Anajli and the fallen Mountaineers 🕊️
I feel so sad for Anjali and those died in the mountain.
But glad you made a good decision Rizza, you will have your chance when the moment is right.
Rizla is a cool name
Was it worth it? I think not.
Just to put your foot on the mountain is an honor. People lose their perspective because of money spent, ego and pride. They wouldn't tolerate a jamb like this on a highway and would look for the nearest exit. Greed plays a huge part on the part of Nepal.
Zero sympathy for a queue of narcissists
Ugh. Those long long long lines exceed the time the oxygen will last. By default you are in immediate and certain peril. It's time to make a change and drastically reduce permits by 85%
Nah. Just let more of these egotistical weirdos kick the bucket.
Yes Sir I watched ur movie wich I really enjoyed and the content was interesting !! I don't Think but I Know that ur a Winner simply because u Knew when 2 turn Back and 2day ur ALIVE and Well !! Ur Definitely a Winner and u can always go back 2 do whatever u want !! U can always find some more Money because ur ALIVE Remember !! I wish u a lot more of Safe Climbing and wise decision making !! Good Luck and B Safe and GOD BLESS you !! 😊😊
Just go to the Tibet side. Less traffic.
Rizza, excellent perspective on human behavior. Did the gentleman who lost his wife get his certificate?
I used to dream of climbing that mountain when I was a kid.. ( back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth) but after about 1985 or so, more and more people were doing it so it wasn't that attractive. I'm always amazed at the the number of surgeons who climb it. They need their fingers to perform their skillset. Why risk frostbite.
I wanted to go into search and rescue at a mountain resort during the winter but my fingers go numb in air below 40° F. So, no not going to happen
Thank you for sharing your experience strength and hope.

I choose to seek out wilderness areas rather than summit Everest. I like to get away from the crowds.
Just too many people want to climb at the same time. No amount of laws or requirements would ever change that fact.
It is a shame that the husband and wife team did not turn around when they found they have to wait up to 25 minutes to move a foot. Should the Sherpa’s have stopped the climbers when they realized it was deadly.
It would be interesting to know if their sherpa knew about their plans to return if one of them would be at risk. Then he might have paid closer attention to the wife's physical condition and warn the husband in time. What a tragedy!
Devastating the kids lost their mother
Next Time In Sha Allah
U r going to get succeed ❤
Blaming the government of Nepal. These adventurers are volunteering. These people know the extreme risk. Of this adventure. Then there are the Sherpas. The true heroes in this story. These Sherpas make multiple trips up and down the mountain. Without the Sherpas. These adventurers would not stand a chance climbing that mountain. Inexperience climbers. Don't blame the Napal government. Blame these climbers. God bless them all.
And I suspect that the sherpas are severely underpaid too.
Really inspiration for mouraniers Bro ❤️❤️
Thank you
I guess they didn't see the 96' Everest documentary
People can be so greedy. Just to go home and tell people they did something like this. Cool thing, mountain climbing, but there is something innately narcissistic about some of these folks. A chick from my town reached k2, the sherpas must have carried her.
Have any climbers summitted without the use of ladders and fixed ropes? I'm always curious to know.
Yes, until the company started business at everest
Sheer vanity . . .
As R. Messner said, using oxygen on Everest degrades the mountain to six thousand. There are so many beautiful six-thousanders in the Himalayas that can be climbed without oxygen, even as a first ascent, which will have a high value.
Cheating and relying on technology will get you to places you would never normally go.
And then there are problems...
Go to the mountains with respect.
Who wants an attraction should go to the carousel or to the circus.
Schade dass das Video nicht auf Deutsch verfügbar ist .
Having spent years watching the many ways Everest can kill you in a summit attempt, I don’t need the Nepal government to save me from myself.
Probably a very good decision to turn back from the summit.
Ezek ott sorban állnak hogy kezet foghassanak a halállal! Örültek!!!
❤️❤️❤️
much love
Love bro
much love
I wouldn’t take a loan out to fund my child’s effort to climb Everest, FHS. The line for the summit looks like something you’d see at Disneyland.
Only ones I’ll ever feel bad for are the Sherpas. The rest paying for their own death
Rizza bhai love you ❤
It's like flying a small helicopter. I will end badly.
High on self importance…narcissism 101. Everest is a killer of self importance.
It's insanity...she's dead...this crazy dream of everyone's is for nothing...mountaineering is just a faster way to live what could be a long life...why is YOUR dream so important when we live with other people in this world....fake team effort....sad
Climbing Everest sounds amazing, but it doesn't sit right with me that the Sherpas risk their lives getting people with more money up there. Sherpas are always falling and getting hurt leaving family behind with less income. They aren't always well compensated for the huge risk. I'd like to go to Nepal fof a visit and food though.
i love Nepal. they mustnt be allowed to pay for the clean up of mt Everest they cant afford it, but it must be done, thanks for the video
Too many people are climbing Mount Everest don't they have a limit they have to shut it down after so many people it's ridiculous and they have to clean up that mess that these people have left higher the Sherpas they need the money to clean it up
Has there ever been a season with no deaths reported
Cable cars. Seriously, you made the right choice ❤.
The lady should have buy the car, instead of trying to climb a mountain. She wouldn’t have been successful at it. She look to be middle age and didn’t look like she supposed to be there. What was her husband thinking, I would want my wife to be in a dangerous place with me. I would want to be at a safe place. Not on a mountain like Everest 😢 it’s sad she had to die alone and him leave her there. I would die with her , I wouldn’t want to leave her there alone. My name is Johnathan this my wife Sherry tablet she pass last year, she was my best friend were marry 21yrs. And to this day I struggle without her. I love her dearly ❤😢
these ppl all have the same crazy look, madness.
That young Indian man together with the sentimental music made it unwatchable for me.
Getting to know myself is easy...I just ask my Wife....she tells me all I need to know.
I would never dream of climbing a difficult mountain with people that I don't know very well and completely trust. And I can think of a much better use for 40K USD, like helping the poor and financing independent journalists.
Well good for you. When do they award your stuck on me medal?
This is my idea of madness. And disrespect for a beautiful mountain. Please be a mountaineer before you climb. I despair for humans,
It's statistics! The more you play with mother nature the more you will find out that she has no mercy. Respect the earth 🌎 🙏
Smart guy. Always listen to the Sherpas! They are never wrong
I'm so glad he brought it to light all the trash all the garbage.. It looks like a DUMPSTER UP THERE an ENTIRE LANDFILL. THATS REDICULOUS. IM SURPRISED THE MOUNTAIN EVER BLESSES ANYONE 😂
One thousand people in base camp. Where does all of the human waste go?
It is disgusting!! Sadly, the true meaning of a "blessing" transitioned to how much money we can make, and the blessing is now just a part of the "$50,000" cost for your experience. Nothing excuses the behavior of these "well to do" people leaving their trash and whatever else!!
I’m sorry. I don’t know a lot but I know this is disrespectful to the mountains. They are loving, taking and giving .
Why not lay O2 piping all along to the summit from the base camp to near summit or so call death zone,,,this enable to reduce deaths at the top due to lack of O2,,,so sad to hear people died due to lack of O2 up there ,,,what a sad thing to happened,,,just a suggestion from a layman
How can builde the piping line
Bismillah 🙏🏻
Next time u will definitely make it bro.
They use to the money, so if they would stop a lot of people from climbing. It will affect the economy
Such foolishness..humans practice
Every year seems to be the deadliest😂
He left his wife to die and went on to climb a mountain
The buck stops with him
This man sounds like a politician
I don’t wanna climb Everest I’d rather climb k2 if I ever got the chance
Higher death rate per capita on K2
I mean, sure he watched his wife die on this stupid trip, but at least he reached the top. 🤚 High five man! Well done.
Was it worth it?
Not
Sherpas need a union!
They paid porters to pack all their gear food equipment etc. in...Ill bet they didnt pay one person to pack anything out.
Super hero
thank you
Making money exploiting nature. Of he's that concerned, stop promoting it.
Such racism in this world. I'm glad you had an amazing experience going that far and came back alive. So sorry for the lady though.
They rope climbed Everest. the only true climber to make it did it without somebody else's rope to pull on.
Humans obsessed with measurements and records. The deadliest year? Yeah till next year😅
