Wow brother you are the main man

It's so good to hear about you Nate. The Porter has inspired me to go to Nepal, which I did in September this year. Your film was a huge help. I've learned a lot of things that I used there, like some important, basic words and a lot about the culture. Thank you so much for that. It makes me sad to hear about your mental struggles. I really hope that you are going to get well soon. You are really talented and I can't wait to see your next documentary/film.

Respect

Vou escrever textao para engajamento! Até a pouco tempo atrás, mal sabia onde ficava o Everest. Fui pega pela curiosidade quando vi o primeiro vídeo sobre a tragédia de 1997. De lá pra cá passei a fazer uma coletânea de vídeos. O mundo do montanhismo é um mundo a parte e ao mesmo tempo encena todos os dramas humanos desde sempre: colonialismo, exploração, abuso, covardia, ganância, crueldade e algumas pinceladas de heroísmo, generosidade, coragem, honra. O documentário capta muito bem o universo dos Sherpas! 🏔️🤍 E. Iva o tradutor automático ⚙️ ja que, por enquanto, nao falo inglês ou nepales.

impressive video in so many ways, Thank you!

This is a good documentary, I just don't understand why someone who speaks and understands the language would not not provide subtitles, it would have made the documentary so much better

Wonderful documentary. Interesting, informative and enjoyable. Well done. Wonderful photography and humour. Thank you very much. The porters should be much better paid for their back-breaking work, and their food and accommodation should be paid by the hirers.

Why was this video or parts of it not in the Porter documentary? Would've set the stage I think. Really enjoyed it tho!

Great post Nate,did the guy stiff you in the end ?

Everest expeditions without Sherpas are ABSOLUTELY impossible, but they never get the credit they deserve!!! THEY are the critical factor! And the same applies for all the others involved in logistics (porters, cooks, medics, pilots, etc), which in another way are also essential in all the effort. It would be interesting to know how much they are paid to do such dangerous and indispensable job, is it a fair share of the earnings? And the Nepali Government? how does it spends the money collected in permits and the like? Does it benefit the local communities? perhaps in providing clean water, education or medical facilities? That is a report I would want to see! Greetings from wild, wet, windy and wonderful Western Patagonia, Chile

Very nice documentary but you shld of put in subtitles when the Sherpas was speaking their language

❤

That was a really great look at the difficult life of the porters. Props for making this documentary to shed light on the reality and for actually being a porter for 11 days!

Just started the video, but this guy is nuts if he’s willing to drink from the tap. Not a good move for a westerner, especially if they’re climbing Everest.

i just really salute all the mountain porters, wherever part of the world they are... carrying heavy things more than half the weight of their own body most even use their head to carry is just unimaginable... their strength and pure hearts are always my inspiration everytime I feel helpless or discourage during hard climbs just carrying 15kg on my back.. this documentary is just really inspiring..our group always make sure the guides and porters we climb with are treated equally and with full of respect. Because they are our heroes in the mountains.❤❤❤

omg 😵😵‍💫😪

Beautiful documentary ❤ The porters have such a warm smile. I wish that they would be fairly compensated for their work.

Oh my God...u are awesome What strong story, u are brave⚘️⚘️⚘️⚘️

Where can I have access to the full film?

Thank you for this great film. Get almost dears in my eyes and a lot of Goosebumps!

It’s 27th July, 2023. I enjoyed it from 🇧🇩Bangladesh.

Brilliant documetary, but sad 😔

Wow. This needed many awards.

Thank you for making this video. I will do my first ever trek in Nepal Oct./Nov. 2024. I promise to pack light and tip every porter in my group equal to what they are earning for my time there. I will be forever grateful and indebted for the assistance given to me. Honored to be there with them🙏 ………What the hell do all of those people pack to make a porter’s job extremely hard??? It breaks my heart to see this…

Vídeo incrível, deveria chegar para todos da plataforma

I ❤ your video. I wish you could add English subtitles so I could understand

What an amazing video. Much respect to the Porters who work tirelessly and get very little recognition.

Those so called mountaineers are nobody but idiots in the game of challenging the summit of Everest without the support of porters. They just have money to force others to work for them!

They treat them like discarded mules

Can't imagine how your back survived the weight. The porters might have the edge on altitude but the weight has to affect their bodies over time, and there sure isn't worker's compensation. If mountaineers can pay $11,000 for an Everest climbing permit alone, 1% is more than the average of what's paid to porters. A Canadian waiter is insulted if he or she gets even 10%.

Generic “Sherpas blah blah blah” comment for sheep to like…

?Harder than climbing everest

I noticed they love alcohol over their .I'd I carry twice my body weight on my head all day I'd like to drink too

Soprised to see a horse and good looking horse grazing on rocks now green any where but he's eating somthing

Seing those guys building stick frame building I can only imagin how much one stick of lumber cost out their every tree is smaller then my wrist

tip your porters!

Nate… little Howard Stern and his dad. Thanks for the awesome documentary, you are so bad ass! 💪🏼 th-cam.com/video/y3TETU14HU4/w-d-xo.html

😂😂 when your dad said “ I didn’t think he would be so stupid” I burst out laughing! It reminded me of Howard Sterns dad when Howard was little.

For people not knowing what was said, on my IPad, there is a “gear” symbol on the top right corner where you can turn on subtitles , then choose English if that’s the language you are looking for!😊

Shame shame shame on those clients who only tipped that man $100.00. That was disgusting, who do they think they are? Next time let them carry the shit up themselves.

Awesome video. Even learnt our language just for the heck of it.

The backbone of the mountain. This is an amazing insight into the lives of these spectacular humans. The level of ungrateful treatment of these folk is insane. Not many would succeed at all without local porters, local sherpa or guides.

Subtitles would have been helpful.

Anyone else disappointed when this ended? I would like to watch more! Really, without Porters, there would be no summiting Everest. I honestly am ashamed to hear of our fellow kind, not tipping or tipping 500 Rupees to the Porters. If foreign climbers who pay anywhere from $20k to $80k USD per expedition, don't want to or not prepared to tip properly, then don't use their services then! 🤬 That old senior couple (at beginning of video), who had lost their son... Couldn't help but to notice the old lady's expression, when her husband talked about having to carry large windows, doors, roofing slabs piece by piece because Hillary wanted to re-build his same old house up there. All in all; without Porters and Sherpas, there is no climbing Everest. So why? How is it that porters are on the lowest rung of the totem pole?

Nate ...having bn thru tis kind of hardship will surely make u to grow into a kinder/ emphatic/ sympatic man henceforth. May ur future success/fortune be generously shared with the lesser kind. U hv done well man!!!

This was very humbling; heartwarming and the most human thing have seen so far by what's behind the curtains in Everest. Thank you.

What a super lovely film 👏

The people who paid $100 should be embarrassed

This was really well done and an interesting look at the world of the porter. I wish there would have been translation to English for what the men were saying to each other because I would have liked to have known their conversations. These people work very hard for very little money. Thank you for showing what they do.
