- Expeditions like this are not cheap. It would not be possible for me to take trips like this (or make videos!) without the help of great sponsors. My technology partner Coros helped me achieve this dream. Please check out their incredible line of GPS watches and much more here: glnk.io/kopjr/... #TrainWithCOROS @COROSglobal
I spent over ten years attempting to climb to the top of every state in America. Some of them are easy, you can just drive to the top! Some of them are very hard and require multi-day backpacking trips. By far the hardest of all of them is Denali (formerly known as Mount McKinley), the tallest mountain in Alaska. It typically takes 3 weeks to climb this deadly mountain. See if I have what it takes to get to the top!
Only 275 humans have ever climbed to the top of all 50 US states. I am honored to be one of this group of crazy people! Next up: Everest. I leave for Nepal on March 31, 2025.
We missed you
U got this
U GOT THIS!!
Your back
LETS GO NICK
Boy ain’t no way boy.. ain’t no mf way. This guy comes back with top tier content after 9 months, I was not expecting mountain climbing.
YES SO TRUE!!!!!!
That’s what I’m saying 😂
It suits him. Free chewing gum was getting old.
@@tinymahuta Yeah true 🤣
HE IS BACK!!❤
Hi Jesse James west
YES HE IS THE BISON 🔥 🔥 🔥

😂😂 this guy. Fancy seeing you here jesse.... if that is your real name
I'm a 10 year smoker. And can beat you in every sport but lifting. And I mean EVERY. I live in austin... care to challenge me😂😂
Just sat next to Nick on a plane back from Boise. A grandma was bragging about her grandson meeting Tim Tebow, not knowing she was sitting next to an Olympian. He never said a word about himself. Shows what a humble guy he is! But I am glad he was only joking to me about being out of the UA-cam game hahaha
That’s awesome! Nicks one of my hero’s.
Lol Tim Tebow has more street cred than all olympians put together
@@gimlee44222 LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@@gimlee44222 LeBron, Stephen Curry, kd, Noah lyles, bolt, Phelps, Gabby Thomas are way more popular than tim lebow

23:48: Let those tears flow brotha! That's the feeling of Glory!!!
when I checked my subscriptions and saw this video pop up my jaw DROPPED. We’re so glad you’re back!! Your gonna do amazing!
I was scrolling for a while trying to find something to watch before work, and when I saw Nick Symmonds my decision was made.
As someone who has been in a few of your events. I am extremely happy to see you back!!! You've managed to conquer one of the hardest feats humanly possible on this planet. Seriously, climbing denali is no joke. The highest I've currently climbed is Mount Adam's which I did at 11 years old while sick. (Still the hardest thing I've done in my life.) I haven't hiked in a pretty long time though unfortunately, but I would still really like to mountains like: hood, south sister, middle sister, Saint Helens, maybe even killimanjaro when I'm a bit older! Anyway. I'm glad to see you back on UA-cam. I've missed you a lot over the past 9 months. And I wish you the best of luck on Mount Everest!
Been waiting for your video for so long always checked my inbox. Finally you are back!!!
He is back! And better than ever! cant wait to see what you have planned for this next year!
6:22 you are amazing! I loved this video, but still love your heart behind your videos!!
I missed you man. Glad your back. Your positivity was always inspiring
Worth the nine month wait (and ten years in the making for you). My wife and I cried with you.
The Bison in his natural habitat 🦬
I'm Happy your back
You like his back? 😅
I'm happy his back, too...
What's so special about his back?
You’re back !!!!
This is one of the best and most inspirational videos I have watched in my entire life! Good luck with Everest Nick! ❤️
Beautiful coverage of your journey Nick! Especially, the updates on your health and mental state, as well as all the little details most of us lower-peak amateurs never have to think about (but aspire to!). You're an inspiration man 🙏
You should create a series to show us what you're doing for your everest training
This was beautiful shot and told. Thanks for sharing your journey with us, inspired and pumped up.
I summited the same day Nick did, he was in another team but we had chatted along the way. It's super interesting to hear a professional sports influencer take on this mountain. I'll tell you, it felt easier listening to him! It was hard! But he is an olympian.... Things he didn't mention - earlier in the season, there was a 50% of climbers had frostbite. Two people on our team had frostbite. I've climbed Denali twice and both times we've had a serious and deadly medical emergency. It's the single most beautiful place I've ever been. The ridge lines are quite steep on both sides and it doesn't look so bad in the video. Like Nick mentioned, he couldn't film on the most dangerous bits, which then always hard to show people. Most of the "no fall" zones are areas that are steep and right over crevasses. Depending on the conditions, if it's icy or not, then there is no possibility to self arrest. Getting that big snow fall at 11,000 feet made the conditions much safer in Squirrel Hill and Windy Corner, for example. Denali was a 12 year goal for me. Gorgeous mountain. Best wishes, Nick, next year on Everest!
Nice insights and congrats on the summit!
Nick! I am so incredibly proud of you. Thank you for taking us on this journey with you. I watched you in the Olympics, I’ve watched your UA-cam channel, I completed your 1 more Lap challenge, and now this huge accomplishment. I had no idea how tasking this trek was, but you did it!!!
Brilliant choice in music. I was tearing up at some parts too and especially at the end. Well done 🎉🎉
Incredible! I took a plane tour around Denali last May 2023 and saw climbers and the pilot lot gave some info. So incredible! What a majestic place too. Glad to see you back!
HOLY CRAP YOURE BACK WE MISSED YOU KING!!!!!!
This video should have wayyy more views. As he said in the video, the difficulty of summiting Denali is on par with Everest
Congrats man. Huge accomplishment
This man really just had the best comeback video ever.
It's nowhere near Denali but I did the Salkantay Trek in Peru in April (15,000 ft) and watching Nick's altitude acclimation and the oxygen readouts really brought me back. Super important to take time to acclimate, hydrate, deep breaths, and some caffeine. The headaches in the morning and after naps were rough for me at first. Your body doesn't know to breath faster/deeper while asleep. I imagine people with severe sleep apnea experience similar oxygen deprivation at night. Not a good feeling, but the body is resilient and adapts to the altitude with time. Grateful that I didn't get too sick and had an unforgettable experience
oh man i did the salkantay trek too and the altitude was kinda crazy 😅 luckily i had a few days in cuzco beforehand so it wasn't too bad
Welcome back! Excited to see what comes next ❤️
This is so inspirational. I have had a tough week at work but after seeing this I am so motivated again because of you. Thank you!
What a boss move by Nick. Never expected this but totally here for it.
How can someone just motivates you so much. thanks nick and welcome back!!!!
i can't believe my eyes... The famous olympian we all know and love is back and he came back so strong with climbing mountains. We love you Nick and Welcome back to UA-cam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lets go!!! Favorite track youtuber is back!!!
14:50 thats what I do when i have to do my 2 minute sprints, i break it down into 10 seconds and then tell myself only 11 times more 😂
So glad you're back on UA-cam Nick, and what a return this video was!! Absolutely awesome video, super inspiring and fascinating to watch.
Thanks for sharing this awesome journey with us! Can't wait to see future videos from you, and Mt. Everest next year!!! Let's go!
LETS GOOOO NICK SYMMONDS
So genuine, love the stuff you do.
THE LEGEND RETURNS
This is one of the best videos I've seen on YT
Nick is back 🎉
Lets goooooo, Nicholas is back!!!!!
Nick, its great to have you back! Your new content is unreal! Thank you for all you put into your channel for your fans!!
Glad you came back!!!!
My heart rate got to 165 on the Assault bike regularly and I felt like I wanted to pass out. I couldn’t imagine being on a mountain having my heart stay at that rate. Congratulations Nick. I got emotional watching him get emotional because you could only imagine the joy reaching the summit.
What a beautiful jounrey, truly a piece of art ❤
I've been waiting for your return. Your videos helped me through a hard time from July of 2023 until now. I was diagnosed with stage 3 throat cancer last July and underwent 7 weeks of radiation and chemotherapy, plus the recovery. I'm not where I want to be yet, but I am doing so much better than I had gotten to. Your videos gave me some real joy during some of the harder times, and I was sorry to reach your pause. I am stoked to see you back and really look forward to seeing your future endeavors.
Hang in there! You sound like you have the right mindset!
@@Apfle_3.1415 Thank You!
23:40 when the guy ahead drops to his knees, I felt that. Also, Nick, I spent over half my life trying to break 16 minutes in the track 5K. I finally did it this year, at the age of 29. I had the exact same emotions. Couldn’t stop crying, not because I was excited that it was done, but almost devastated that the goal was gone. It was like an old friend. At the same time, it was like something that had held me captive, trapped me. And I was free. There’s just some thing about those goals that you fight with for over a decade.
`Wow man, thank you so much, you made me feel so alive from the comfortableness of my sofa. Blessings.
Discovered your channel because of this video, beautiful! Thanks for making it and can’t wait for the Mount Everest one 🗻
THE GOAT HAS RETURNED ‼️‼️‼️🐐
What a video! Thank you so much for sharing this with us all. And congrats on making it to the top!
17:31 that looks so nice fr
Yesss he’s back!!! Great video ❤️
Heck yeah bro
YAY You're back!
Not uploading for years only to come back outta nowhere and climb mt Denali then casually tell us he is going to on an everest expedition and summit everest, this gotta be some of the most badass shit I've seen in a while
It's only been 9 months since his last video lol
@@HolyMooselmao ikr if you just click the channel you can see it. These ppl are craycray

Proud of you and hyped for you.

Nick this was superb! I don’t get emotional very often but you got me! Love the ups and downs!!
That was AWESOME!! You better take care of yourself. I know i'm just some random guy and we've never met but you motivate me so much to keep going, keep pushing and keep setting new goals, thank you for everything you don't know you have done for me!
Way to come back with an amazing Video Nick. You getting emotional really just set the tone for how much it all meant to you and it really made me feel as though I was apart of it too. So happy for you, congratulations and the best of luck towards your next goal, Everest. And as always, may God keep blessing you endlessly on your journey. ❤

One of the best videos ever! Love it man!!
you're an inspiration to me i swear . like dude seriously your videos and mentality hats off dude hats fucking offff !!! i cried when you cried reaching the top of the summit , i know that feeling and sooo wanna enjoy that feeling of accomplishment , the feeling of beating my emotions and my own inner negative voices down and getting something so incredible done , we people are like on a mission to give our bodies our minds the extremes and demanding from them to go above the threshold and do the things . i love your videos and the mentality of never stopping never stooping down on the past and just wish i could go back , i wanna live like you on my own journey . SUCH AN INSPIRATION !! love you Nick Symmonds and am truly honored to have subscribed to your channel , thankyou so much for just being who you are !!
