A combination of depression and anxiety is no joke. When your depressed you don’t feel like doing anything and when your not doing anything your anxiety kicks in and makes you feel worse because you know you have so much to do. I’m so glad you can openly talk about it because people need to stop hiding it.
So many have died yet I think of Rob Hall the most unwilling to abandon a client which he should have but mad respect for him all the same! No Doubt he would have survived had he left doug Hanson and came down himself! RIP ON THE SOUTH SUMMIT FRIEND HERO FATHER HUSBAND citizen of the world!!! The best of us in us Rob Hall
As someone that is currently struggling with depression and anxiety, I really respect their point of view on this. It’s something about getting up a mountain, taking on a hard challenge, that makes things a little better, even if just for a moment.
He should try being depressed when you make 25k a year and can’t afford to go on expeditions every year and do what you love. That’s what most people face
We dont need to do everest to feel some form of accomplishment; if you're in the city, keep walking, until your feet says to stop; if you have some nature, walk until your feet says to stop lol. The silence and existence without social pressure but still be surrounded with life, makes life more tolerable and actually appreciated. Try it, I love the focus, navigation and music walking with the beat 👍🏾👍🏾
This was so inspiring. I'm not sure when this happened but these guys are incredible! I have battled with depression my whole life. It really was moving. Amazing guys!!! AMAZING!
I relate to cory thank you for talking openly about your illness - its kept hidden - its reported that suicide is on the rise with young smart men who are very talented - its sad that mental illness gets so little attention - your honesty is amazing love you for that - its very courageous - and accepting of who you are and how you manage it
Thank you guys.....this is f...k awesome. I have seen hundreds of videos and read about climbing Himalayas bout nothing like this. Behind of climbing a mountain is hundreds of hours thinking about, dealing with your own self. What’s insane no one is talking about, this is the best video and is so good. Thank you guys. I wanted to see WTF you are thinking about on 2 am in the tent when you cant sleep, or the wind is blowing nonstop....Respect.
I followed them on snapchat originally as they climbed everest. That's before I really found out who Adrian was and how much he respected the mountain. Now seeing this documentary in full and knowing more about them both I have a profound respect for them and what they were trying to do. As well as how honest they were about not only being physically fit taking their mental health into account too. Thank you for sharing this.
Hats off to the initial climbers like Reinhold Messner, Edmund Viesturs and others who have climbed the 14 thousanders with supplementary oxygen ..... That was done in 1980s and 1999s
what's the point of going up with no oxygen and yet have sherpas carrying all your stuff up the mountain ahead of you. plus not showing any sherpas in your video makes this feel so cheap and ego centered.
YA THINK?? I've been watching ANYTHING Everest for the past month. And I've come to a conclusion: These "Climbers" - "Mountaineers"... are PSYCHOTIC! I'm not saying as in "OoOoh it's "CraAazy" to want to climb Everest". I'm saying EGOCENTRIC - SCRUPULOUS - SELF SERVING - NO SOUL HAVING PSYCHOS! They're ALL ABOUT THEMSELVES - LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME! They leave ALIVE PEOPLE TO DIE - SO THEY CAN CONTINUE THEIR "SUMMIT". They STEP OVER DEAD BODIES! LITTER EVERYWHERE! 98% of these people are PSYCHOTIC! The other 2% are WAY OVER PRIVILEGED SCUM BAGS. Look at "Sandy (Pittman) Hill". She hired Sherpa's to CARRY A TV & MOVIES to Everest Base Camp!!!! Here OWN CHINA AND SILVERWARE!!! Just unbelievable INSANITY!! And they pay these Sherpa's JACK SHIT!!
This is the most emotionaly greatest climbing experience in decades. You guys were engaging, moving, involved, I was with you every step of the way. Great teeth by the way, Adrian....
huge respect if you come down. You worked so hard but a couple moments before the summit you make the decision to choose life and your family and all the other responsibilites in you life instead of glory. Seems so hard to come down after like 30 days of climbing damn
You didn't fail. You are heroes. Don't be so hard on yourself. Success and failure mean nothing. It is the experience that matters, not a judgment about yourself. You actually did something that 99% of the world couldn't do. I so admire you. Allen
Excellent! Thank you very much! very good that you were clever enough to turn back when it unfortunately became necessary. Which is certainly difficult when someone has come this far. But that really makes you heroes for me and a great role model! I wish you all the best and allways a healthy return home! 😊
Congratulations !!👏🏻🙏🏻thanks for making such a beautiful video.You guys are really awesome please come back again, Nepal Himalaya is waiting for you 🙏🏻👍🏼
What do you accomplish by climbing without oxygen? The Sherpas set the fixed lines, raise the tents, supply the camps, cook the meals, and follow you every minute. So other than placing your team at risk, you accomplish nothing.
@@billyray3761 this silly mountain climbing thing has created a highly skilled valuable industry and profession that earns a Sherpa about a years wages in a matter of few months rather than be economically forced in to some 3rd world urban slum working in a sweat shop or not much better, subsistence farming or making local crafts for tourists. These Sherpas take a lot of pride in being professionals who have a very important skill. They dont need your social justice. Besides, they are Buddhists glorifying ones self is not a part of their moral code.
ua-cam.com/video/tcmH0__c7aw/v-deo.html Perhaps you should watch this, because apparently you haven't. You're wrong about the Sherpa, and wrong about my being a Liberal.@@tballstaedt7807
It’s 2021, they have porters just carry them to the top and bypass the Sherpas, skip over the Hillary Step, quick headstand selfie on the top, and back to Camp 1 before their tea is cold
Looking into the face of death, and realizing fear is there, is a key component of high alpine living. You cannot ignore them, you recognize they exist, but you have to set them aside putting them in their place. I got 29 people on my death list.
This is such an outstandingly good video! How well told and how instructive! Congratulations Adrian and Cory (and Monica) and your amazing Sherpas! You are all great and I am really looking forward to your next expeditions! Congratulations and all the best! 😊😊 (I am physically handicapped, which of course is not always that easy. Reports like yours help someone like me enormously! Thank you very much for your openness and honesty! The mental side in particular is so important.) 😊
A mountaineer checks his/her fingers and toes in the same way a newborn parent does!! Adrien is a prime example why they need to limit the mountain to experienced climbers. He knew instinctively (from climbing so much) that he needed to go back down. He should have had oxygen on his person in case. He might have been able to summit!!
Depression clip was great. I am not a mountaineer, or climber, I have never even been to 14,000 ft. (maybe one day) but I climb Everest every day. Somedays I make it to the Summit. Somedays, I to turn around. All this done each and every day, all the while wondering when the Mountain is going to take me. Question for you experts: Would it not be logical to assume that No one will ever climb a mountain as high as Hilary? Not snow crest height but actual rock mountain height. Because every millisecond that passes erosion makes the rock smaller. Hmmmmmm? I urge everyone who battles with depression to climb high and hard, be open about your, "irrational" but real, feelings. Talk to others with no shame. And keep climbing....it may never feel like it to you...but quite possibly your mountain is getting smaller and your daily summits easier. Peace and Love to all.
Indeed. Ballinger is one of a tiny number of people to do both Everest and K2 without supplemental oxygen, so it makes total sense that he's not your type of climber.
@@carolbeckett6215 Ballinger has a fiance. I guess it must depend where you go to some extent though, as how much of the question of survival depends on which mountain you're on. Ballinger for instance climbs Everest from the Tibet side as he strongly believes it is much safer than from Nepal. There is still the queueing issue though. One thing you must remember though is that the biggest killer on everest is inexperience, while these guys are far from inexperienced. Admittedly still not my cup of tea. Too much of the risk is out of my hands.
great documentary congratulations on summiting from north ridge always wanted to climb but to old now but watch as match you tube on Everest climbs again well done
Less cell phones and more Messner what where the names of the sherpas that chaperoned these two? I failed to hear it with all the back slapping going on.
I really like his comment towards the end "we got away with it." I think that captures this feet of adventure very well. In fact, I think that lies at the heart of all true adventures. I've "got away with it" many times and, God willing, still have more to come. Thanks for posting your adventure, I enjoyed it very much!
Now do it without the aid of Sherpas, carrying all your gear alone, and without oxygen. Or use oxygen, whatever, but try it without Sherpas, cooks and assistants.
I love how the first guy goes on about how it’s ok that he didn’t summit but at the end of that he sneaks in how he summited last year. Nepal should add a fee for Sherpas to go back up and clean up their trash and future trash to keep Everest beautiful.
Cory when you described your issues you are going thru and then mentioned you struggled with addiction as well, you told my story completely. I was diagnosed with bipolar & addiction etc since I was 14 and I've always struggled with feeling like I'm on the outside and always in fear. I went thru years of counseling and nothing helped. It doesn't seem like the answer to outsiders would be Alcoholics Anonymous but it is! Magic happens when you go there, get a sponsor and start working the 12 steps! Mind, body and soul transformation!! We have a mind where we suffer from 100 forms of fear, delusions, self seeking, self pity etc. The program was divinely inspired and the steps are a path to a daily reprieve from all that stuff! It's can change your perspective 180 degrees and catapult you into the 4th dimension! We suffer from a spiritual malady (not religious, spiritual), and a mind and body that is different than others. And alcohol and drugs are just a symptom of our disease. When we have a committee in or head that tells us negative cap 1000x a day, no wonder we need to drink or use. It's why alcohol and drugs did something for us that they don't do for normal people (which is we can come out and play, no fears, no judgements, no committee). Try the program. It will solve all these things you struggle with!!
You know they're just goons when you find out he's drinking coffee at 8000m. Who drinks a diuretic when hydration is super important. And this keto diet bs... ugh.
Metabolically and physiologically speaking, being in ketosis should be a major advantage, all else equal. Being fully keto-adapted results in the least possible oxidative stress (ie ketones are the most oxygen efficient substrate, so the body processes oxygen as well as possible). I think you would have to be really careful about your electrolyte intake, though.
Thanks for the glimpse into your world. Very informative for flat-landers like me. More mundane - can you tell me the type of sunglassess you're both wearing during seated interviews outdoors?
I confess, marginally embarrassed to have watched 15 minutes. However, I really enjoyed and got good, solid humor from brother commentators below. That made the time worth well spent.
After watching this documentary I felt very sorry for these guys. They were in an exciting adventure yet they lacked the adventurous spirit a man should exhibit to enjoy these moments fully without focusing too much on the mechanics. Being prepared to embrace the unknown even death or injury through mindful adaptation is the key to help endure this treacherous experience
And the sherpas end up making 835 dollars a year vs the 5000 they make by being sherpas, sherpas make decisions and so do the climbers that hire them. No one is there against thier will.
After watching other videos about Everest and how Sherpas are absolutely necessary for all these climbers to even get up the mountain, it makes everything these 2 say sound totally obnoxious. Especially when they don't show any Sherpa helpline in the clips and talk as if they did it with only the help of each other. So how many times did that Sherpas have to go up and down the mountain before you even got there to set up camps and bring up all uneccesssry crap westerners like to bring. How many meals did you cook or did that Sherpa cook it, how many kilos of your own stuff did you tsk up or did for Sherpas do it, how much of the trails did you set up or lines did you run or did three Sherpas do it. Obnoxious
Eh, when he's at the summit he specifically says, "IT TOOK EVERY SHERPA WE HAD, I love all you guys." Learn to stop being a hater and get out of ur basement every once in awhile! Will do you some good.
@@jacopochiefjaco123 he’s eating at a dining table in a heated tent. Those sherpas had to risk their lives bringing him a fucking dining table. Everest isn’t even a difficult mountain anymore because the sherpas do everything for you
Respect my bros! Feel like I know you guys after now! That is after this heart in throat, north side/hard-way thrilla! Btw, I understand, where for whatever reason other's that might not climb probably won't, and we can't really blame them right!? Anyway, I'm sufficiently pumped for an attempt in 2020 -- With Oz tho! and after my first 8k Cho Oyu!
Those face masks look like such a good idea. On Cho-Oyu I got a sunburnt tongue from panting with a wide open mouth! Because of the altitude of base-camp it never really got the chance to heal til I got back to Kathmandu. Not comfortable!! How lucky was it to find a group with spare oxygen that you could have! Which route were you on this time?
Its Airtrim lot of Swedish skier use them. I use it when I ski, run or going whit snowshoes when its really cold. "Airtrim is a heat/moisture exchanger that uses the moist and warmth from the exhaled air. While inhaling the filter warms the air and protect your airways from the cold". And for sure I dont sell this:)
Oh boohoo poor me... I am so depressed my daddy spent 40K for me to sit around and be anxious about the fact that I am in danger and now I'm so scared I might die. I have to put myself on Everest to actually feel this way.....please feel sorry for me I realize EVERYONE ELSE deals with these feelings ANYWAY, but Im such a coddled punk that I am addicted to putting myself through this just to actually feel some excitement for once......how pathetic
I love these comments. Other is professional climbing guide and other is extremely experienced as well. But they talk about mental health and are sensitive so they are pathetic. What are y'all doing to reach your wildest dreams? I'm guessing absolutely nothing as worthless as your lives are. Just making shitty comments on UA-cam.
Ballinger - best accent ever. I could listen to him talk all day 😂

When your depressed you don’t feel like doing anything and when your not doing anything your anxiety kicks in and makes you feel worse because you know you have so much to do.

I suffer from depression and bipolar disorder. I am inspired by the accomplishments of this climber.

I'm inspired by you m
You should be inspired by the Sherpas since they do almost all of the work.

Just getting our of bed in the throes of depression is like climbing a mountain so pat yourself on the back everytime you get out of bed

ESPN really needs more mountaineering content. K2, Manaslu, Nanga Parbat, all would make for good tv.
Hats off to the initial climbers like Reinhold Messner, Edmund Viesturs and others who have climbed the 14 thousanders with supplementary oxygen ..... That was done in 1980s and 1999s
No... Reinhold and viesturs both did it alpine style no O2
Messner was completely ahead of his time. He summited Everest without supplemental oxygen SOLO. Insanity
They need one extra sherpa just for their hair gel.
LOL!!! Funny how their hair looks like they forgot their combs, but sure did not forget their razors with those close shaves.
ha ha ha Worst hair ever,, in Everest's history.
I think it’s just greasy from being on the mountain so long. Idk?
😂.
Egomaniacs.... if they’re such badasses, why don’t they climb Everest for real-without Sherpas and O2? 😂
thats just greasy hair lol you dont get to shower on everest :p

@@judithnicholais1492 You're an uneducated idiot that doesn't understand economics. Go to school, moron.
Excellent guys. Thanks ever so much. Quite moving.
It's best to climb Everest without oxygen, food, or clothing - there's nothing more real than near starvation, dehydration, hypoxia, & frostbite.
misterfunnybones Ha ha I love it
If they were truly as rad as their hair, they'd take this route
I’ve done it twice. The second time to prove the first wasn’t a fluke, and for good measure I strapped a naked Sherpa to my back.

Being fully keto-adapted results in the least possible oxidative stress (ie ketones are the most oxygen efficient substrate, so the body processes oxygen as well as possible). I think you would have to be really careful about your electrolyte intake, though.

Yeah im sure you know better than the professional sponsored climber who also runs yearly expeditions to everest. You tell him.
Beavis and Butthead
I’ve been watching for 3 mins and 52 secs and I’ve lost the feeling in all of my toes.
Thanks for the glimpse into your world. Very informative for flat-landers like me. More mundane - can you tell me the type of sunglassess you're both wearing during seated interviews outdoors?
kaenon clarke
Thank you! :-)
Got a pair of burnet xl's ! Love 'em.
Maybe there's snow reflecting from higher up?
I confess, marginally embarrassed to have watched 15 minutes. However, I really enjoyed and got good, solid humor from brother commentators below. That made the time worth well spent.
These dude's are rad
I absolutely adore these two guys. They're inspiring and full of such a glowing and beautiful energy. They represent what it means to cherish life.
Bullshit...They're Bragging weak rich Boys
Sky Fucking...
SHOT OUT TO THE 3RD CLIMBER ON THIS EXPEDITION & ONLY ACKNOWLEDGED ONCE ......
.........THE CAMERAMAN.......😁🎊🎉..
After watching this documentary I felt very sorry for these guys. They were in an exciting adventure yet they lacked the adventurous spirit a man should exhibit to enjoy these moments fully without focusing too much on the mechanics. Being prepared to embrace the unknown even death or injury through mindful adaptation is the key to help endure this treacherous experience
Space heaters dining tables and sriracha lol, these guys aren't shit without Sherpa assistance.
And the sherpas end up making 835 dollars a year vs the 5000 they make by being sherpas, sherpas make decisions and so do the climbers that hire them. No one is there against thier will.

I love it !
he realized he had to go back down when his phone died XD
This shit is crazy! I'd never. But am addicted to watching climbers.
So Bad ass no O???? Don’t think I could with O LET ALONE NO O!!!! Special breed!!!!!
Props for the mental health discussion!!! Can you imagine a panic attack on top of Everest?!? 😳😳
The worst place on earth to have a panic attack. I
I really admire how these guys didn't make excuses and owned their initial failure. You don't see much of that these days.
WTF? These 2tools are nothing but walking excuses
After watching other videos about Everest and how Sherpas are absolutely necessary for all these climbers to even get up the mountain, it makes everything these 2 say sound totally obnoxious. Especially when they don't show any Sherpa helpline in the clips and talk as if they did it with only the help of each other. So how many times did that Sherpas have to go up and down the mountain before you even got there to set up camps and bring up all uneccesssry crap westerners like to bring. How many meals did you cook or did that Sherpa cook it, how many kilos of your own stuff did you tsk up or did for Sherpas do it, how much of the trails did you set up or lines did you run or did three Sherpas do it. Obnoxious
You clearly have no idea who Cory Richards is.
Eh, when he's at the summit he specifically says, "IT TOOK EVERY SHERPA WE HAD, I love all you guys." Learn to stop being a hater and get out of ur basement every once in awhile! Will do you some good.
@@jacopochiefjaco123 he’s eating at a dining table in a heated tent. Those sherpas had to risk their lives bringing him a fucking dining table. Everest isn’t even a difficult mountain anymore because the sherpas do everything for you
I love Everett.. Thank you for such a very informed video.
+s Maybe it's Rupert Everett? :D
The strong narrative brings a fresh feel to the Everest story.
Wow! Just wow!!
legends well done congrats guys amazing effort thats above and beyond
Respect my bros! Feel like I know you guys after now! That is after this heart in throat, north side/hard-way thrilla! Btw, I understand, where for whatever reason other's that might not climb probably won't, and we can't really blame them right!? Anyway, I'm sufficiently pumped for an attempt in 2020 -- With Oz tho! and after my first 8k Cho Oyu!
Unfortunately covid came
Those face masks look like such a good idea. On Cho-Oyu I got a sunburnt tongue from panting with a wide open mouth! Because of the altitude of base-camp it never really got the chance to heal til I got back to Kathmandu. Not comfortable!! How lucky was it to find a group with spare oxygen that you could have! Which route were you on this time?
Its Airtrim lot of Swedish skier use them. I use it when I ski, run or going whit snowshoes when its really cold.
"Airtrim is a heat/moisture exchanger that uses the moist and warmth from the exhaled air. While inhaling the filter warms the air and protect your airways from the cold".
And for sure I dont sell this:)
THey are AWESOME!!!*****
Oh boohoo poor me... I am so depressed my daddy spent 40K for me to sit around and be anxious about the fact that I am in danger and now I'm so scared I might die. I have to put myself on Everest to actually feel this way.....please feel sorry for me I realize EVERYONE ELSE deals with these feelings ANYWAY, but Im such a coddled punk that I am addicted to putting myself through this just to actually feel some excitement for once......how pathetic
👏👏👏👏👍
🤠
I love these comments. Other is professional climbing guide and other is extremely experienced as well. But they talk about mental health and are sensitive so they are pathetic. What are y'all doing to reach your wildest dreams? I'm guessing absolutely nothing as worthless as your lives are. Just making shitty comments on UA-cam.
why tf are you so hateful? calm down
Thanks for the footage guys! Super amazing footage. I'm debating Everest
