I am sure he wanted too but his wife called it "she wanted him to experience fatherhood before he leaves for everest". Honestly she just wanted a baby lol
Huge respect those mountaineer reached summit Mount Everest Even Mount Kinabalu, Malaysia was a massive challenge & nightmare to reach summit Mt Kinabalu
God & Nature: Lets create mountains so high thats it is hard to breath with dangerous falls, deadly weathers that change quickly and cold enough to kill any living thing. Humans: Lets climb it.
Morethan 100 climber queue in DeathZone Hillary step is insane...8000mtrs in queue is like waiting for your death as you also have to go down better not stay long there choose life the mountain ain't going anywhere you can come someday again.
It is sad to see that people think this is what climbers do. For those who are truly interested in climbing please look up Piolet d'Or awards. Those are awards for real climbers and mountaneers and not for those rich extreme tourists who go to Everest.
The Piolet d'Or is an annual mountaineering award given by the French magazine Montagnes and The Groupe de Haute Montagne since 1992. Golden Ice Axes are awarded for achievements in the previous year. It is considered mountaineering's highest honor, and is considered to be the "Oscars" of mountaineering and climbing. Wikipedia
Everest can be very dangerous. Apparently, some really think money will get them their dream trip to Everest & back. That's one of or is top reason for so many deaths/injuries there. Even a Sherpa will walk off if a climber won't listen.
My Grandfather was climbing a Mountain in Nepal during the time Jeremy was there and my Grandfather passed away on 30 May in his sleep in the mountains.
@Beverley Lumb which is still the fault of the Nepalese govt who issues, controls the permits and makes the rules. A longtime Sherpa said that in the other documentary on the commercialization of Everest.
Nothing isn't worth to lose life even if it's dream to climb the highest mountains in the world and if you have wife and kids then you must put the highest priority on your family and not in the mountains , the duty for your family is above everything
The window is not decided by the government. Its pure luck and depends on the weather. If everybody decides to use the same window /day to climb, its their problem. But I think only professional climbers should be allowed to climb with hefty fine if they don't bring down their garbage. If not, lets close the mountain for everyone out there.
Jeremy arrived at the South Summit at 4.30am [a really good time] and there were 200 climbers in front of him? The real frightening thing there is since there's only one rope, how the hell do the leading climbers descend after reaching the summit when there's that many people still ascending?
@Paul Wolf Rewatch & listen to Dian again talking about having the baby. She’s a climber herself & SHE wanted him to be a father & know what that was like before he left. Although unsaid, she heavily implies that she was aware of the risks & also what was waiting for him. As for the call, SAT phones aren’t guaranteed to work, even in good weather. One of the men who lost their lives in Feb. doing a K2 winter summit tried to make an emergency call, but the phone co. had a "glitch" & could only give a tracking point to pilots. They don’t know if they used it to call their family from the summit, or even what #’s were dialed! Maybe Jeremy explains what happened to that call in the book. Of note, if you look at people involved in catastrophic situations; those who have a supportive partner & children have a higher % of survival & often credit them as the reason they lived. This occurs regardless of type of activity/where/when/injury or illness & in NO WAY means those who are "single" don’t do any & everything to survive! It’s simply a well researched statistic of first responders & emergency physicians published in journals. I hope you are staying healthy, safe & Blessed🙏🏻🏔⛺️. P.S. I think anyone who has a story to tell should write a book! It may not be a NYT bestseller or maybe it will, but you never know who may find something they need in your words 😉!
@@rebeccaude4412 thanks for the amazing support Rebecca. ❤ I think the world needs more people like you who don't just put people down and instead look at the positive side of life and people. Thank you for making my day and believing in human dreams.
The summit achievement is surpassed only by the self-centered narcissism it takes to attempt a summit under those conditions while your new born is at home with your young wife.
Such adventurers are fully aware of the risks, but the normal challenges of life are not enough & they are prepared to accept frostbite and worse to achieve their goals. Their loved ones know that they are a distant second and just have to suck it up.
I don't think there's anything wrong with his oxygen but that's how it is at the death zone due to extreme cold the duct got blocked and his mask is fogged up which he said everything worked properly once he got down. The death zone is where anything that will go wrong will go wrong to try to kill you with one error in judgement
I could understand putting your life at risk for something that no one or few people have did , but to put it at risk for somethings hundreds have died doing and many more who successfully done it , blows my mind. And then to complain about your life being at risk at the end of it all , 🙎🏻♂️
First of all, the mountain is originally called Sagarmatha. Second, if you used a helicopter at any portion of your climb or trek itself especially on the way down it doesn't count. Summiting and then calling for a helicopter like a taxi service.
What's the name of the dead climber that was passed on the way to camp 4? Not even honoring the person by mentioning his name at least, is atrocious. It's just me, me, me, me, me and MY summit. Not even mentioning the name of the people in distress that were passed. At this point it's only dead-eyed narcissist pigs on that mountain who will climb over each others bodies without a second thought. 21:58
He mentioned it was Don Cash. I hope Cash’s son was able to see some of the video of his father shown here. I just saw another UA-cam video where they showed his body, and his son commented on the video that he was very appreciative of seeing his final resting place.
He was a young man, which I think helped him survive. It's a mistake ; in my opinion; for older men to attempt Everest, if they don't have a lifetime of mountaineering experience. Unfortunately; in the western world anyway; it's usually the older men who want to do this because it has taken them years in their career to have the income to be able to pay for an Everest expedition.
Kinda same old story: bad weather, bottle neck on the final ridge, panic, OH, it was so windy...the guy survived. Great. Am I supposed to applaud the human courage of someone that just has to make it up the tallest mountain, when even the armchair mountaineers aren't impressed or affected anymore because its just a big ego trip anyway?
Glad I could soldier on from the to-my-ears unbearable soundtrack of the first 4 minutes. Good going Jeremy and very nice footage. Best of luck in the future.
Stop glorifying these ego trips. Like, we don't need another book on it, or another show. We know people can do it (with help of sherpas of course). You just did what you wanted to do, you're not a hero or an inspiration or anything. Only people you inspire are other egomaniacs wanting to do the same, and destroying nature and whatever else in the process. Genuine mountaineers will have found their way without your help. But if you really are a genuine nature loving person, grab some extra trash back from there.
1. If your oxygen level drops (f.e. at high altitudes) your body tries to supply the vital and most important organs (s.a. the brain, hart, kidneys) first with blood/oxygen and the extremities (feet, hands) are less supplied with blood/oxygen. 2. If you're hardly move, your hart rate / bloodcirculation also slows down. 3. When its cold and the wind is also strong, your body cools down faster. These are the main reasons you can get frozen limbs very quickly. Even the best clothing can no longer compete.
The Nepalese government and these mountaineering companies are 💯 to blame for all these deaths. I remember seeing the pictures of looking like they were waiting for a beer in line at a concert. But yet, they were just trying to summit a mountain. That was extremely negligent of the government there. I realize Everest is where they make their money. But they have so much blood on their hands. Your only as good as the people that are willing to help you.
I pity ppl who thinks asian ethics ppl english r bad n subtitles r inserted by default.. The fact is u understand their English much better than some English men n Australians who speak crap English... Kudos to the team who submitted my country treasure..🙏
Not sure how you are considered a climber when you are just using your ascender and walking up the mountain lol didn't see any vertical pitches in this. No tool use, just walking up a big hill
What is Everest Base Camp? Some climbers carry disposable travel toilet bags to use in the higher camps, while at Base Camp, there are toilet tents which have special drums where human waste goes. These can be taken away from the mountain and emptied safely.Jun 25, 2019
i dont doubt that winds can become cyclonic on mt everest however this is the first video i have seen thats said there was a cyclone at camp 2-3, a bit to over dramatic for me. not the best everest video although well done on your summit of the most contrevesial year on everest
Your lucky. Everest is becoming a joke. It’s being way over sold and is starting to be nothing but a sure way to die horribly. It really needs to be better handled.
If u mean a drone then no won’t work the winds are to extreme and climbing up you carry a robot it will feel like carrying mutable shopping bags at once
Wait they you would have a wife and kids before climbing the Everest. And why these documentaries need to put these annoying wives worried for their husbands sitting at home. We wanna listen to the experience of the climbe andr not someone worried about him.
No supplemental oxygen use should be allowed on Everest (or other mountains) except in medical emergencies or during rescue attempts. I have climbed to 7500m and have never used o2. Anyone that considers themselves a mountaineer should eschew the use of o2 as a climbing aid. Oxygen aided ascents should not be allowed. If that were the case, 90% of those rich gapers would never make it to camp III. Over crowded summit ridge lines would be solved. People that use o2 to aid their ability to ascend should be considered cheaters and looked down upon by the mountaineering community. Nations and mountaineering associations should cease recording and recognizing o2 aided accents. Your summit attempt should not be counted and you should quit putting yourself and others in danger by sucking cheater gas.
As long as you’re on your high horse about aided accents, I’m sure you would agree with me 100% that anyone who uses the premade rope path to the summit and any sort Sherpa guides or assistance should also be disqualified because they had help to do it and isn’t pure mountaineering. I have a friend that loves climbing, but is disgusted by those who bash on those who use o2, while they themselves fully utilized sherpas and guides and fixed ropes and act like their style is pure and true mountaineering. It’s not. He says they can’t have it both ways. If they are going to preach pure mountaineering, then they need to do it at every level and not be selective about it.
@@thed165 100% agreed. Oxgen or not you won't made it pass base camp without the help of the icefall doctors laying down the path, lines, ladders for you.

If climbing everest is your dream....first fulfill it and then get married and have kids..

Every adventure story ends with the hero getting the girl.
I am sure he wanted too but his wife called it "she wanted him to experience fatherhood before he leaves for everest". Honestly she just wanted a baby lol
Very much true ...
With the rate of death this is one of the stupidest things I've ever heard you should live your life as it may be the last thing you will do.
"getting some of the last-minute equipment, like Coca-Cola."
I love this guy
This guy seems less obnoxious and more reasonable than the man who told his father to loan money from the bank so that he could climb Everest
Well it's notable for starters that he is more experienced than most. Experience in mountains humbles you.
Lol.
You can’t judge people who chasing theirs dream. Can you please just with them on theirs journey which you might unable ever experience.
Love this! Thank you for the great content!
"My sherpa...my sherpa....my sherpa." Doesn't *your* sherpa have a name?
Huge respect those mountaineer reached summit Mount Everest
Even Mount Kinabalu, Malaysia was a massive challenge & nightmare to reach summit Mt Kinabalu
It's an expensive hobby and yet deadly.
Glad he managed to climb and came back home safely
Love watching these Everest videos, with a bit of horror mixed with fascination, but I still can’t understand what motivates these people to do this,
God & Nature: Lets create mountains so high thats it is hard to breath with dangerous falls, deadly weathers that change quickly and cold enough to kill any living thing.
Humans: Lets climb it.
True there is a reason nothing lives up there that we know of anyway.
The only reason so many do it, because they get their asses carried up by the Sherpas. Nearly no1 is doing it by themself.
This is how my parents describe how going to school was...
Yes! 😂

It's not only the fault of too many permits being issued it's because of people getting them with no climbing experience or very little

Thanks to the Sherpa without this people no one can reach Mount Everest...
And thanks to climbers, sherpas earn over-average wages….
Just how do they allow so many people at one climb with one rope. So if the weakest one is on top of line.. everyone else has to suffer?? Greed!!!
Because Nepal prioritise money over safety
@@Katie-B exactly
@@saveournsrey2018 true, but as far as I know, they need money so desperately as a nation that it's difficult for them to issue fewer permits.

Is it possible some climbers died of sheer exhaustion?
They do, constantly. Although, an exact diagnosis is impossible since most who die are left behind.
Not sure how you are considered a climber when you are just using your ascender and walking up the mountain lol didn't see any vertical pitches in this. No tool use, just walking up a big hill
hikers not climbers
If not for his Sherpa he wouldn't have gotten home. Sad.
