I don't know but I laugh when he says I had a week before flying back home and that's the reason he climbed again.. 😂
Climbing Everest out of boredom 😂
And the gastrointestinal upset just disappeared from the conversation 😅😅
He needed to do it "again" because he didn't do it the first time. He felt guilty. He knew that the job was not done. Then even the second time he can't show any convincing proof. Very bad style. Jornet is an extraordinary athlete, a legend, but he is lousy at documenting his achievement in the case of mont everest. Really disappointing. Ruins a lot.
@@anamorph open his Strava
Imagine being roped in to a chain of 6 people in full winter gear and breathing apparatus, slowly and safely trudging up the cold sides of mount everest feeling a great sense of self acomplishment for the hardships you have faced so far.... Then this guy runs past you in short shorts waves hello and zooms up the mountain :)
Haha! Amazing comment!
“Hallo, beautiful day owt heer my brathers!” As he is making straight tracks past them
Hahaha!
Thats it. He moves faster , he gets warmer muscles. If i trudge up slowly my Legs and feet are colder
@@pierreweee7425 no shit
"why did you climb it again"
Kilian: i had spare time and was bored
to show its not that hard, its only 4km high
i could run 4km in an hour easy
@@hindugoat2302 are you dumb or sarcastic?
@@GutsEnthusiast both
@@hindugoat2302 same
This guy would have been a messenger back in ancient times
Hermes!
Amazing.Still cant understand why these videos have the lamest music though.Like wtf this is some of the most badass feats human history why does it feel like a cooking how to video.
True, royalty free music at the best of times isn’t great
it's Chad music as he doesn't want to dramatise
Yea, have to agree, also way to short.
I have a couple days wait before my flight, I THINK I'LL JUST GO CLIMB EVEREST TO PASS THE TIME.
Casual
He's a ummm... Efficient time management expert .👍
Wait, 26 hours and then 17 HOURS without oxygen tanks 😱 he better be cast in the next movie to defeat Thanos
17h was from advanced BC not BC
and both were without additional oxygen :D
Dude could outclimb Galactus with the Beyonder running sherpa duty.
So basically Kilian just said climbing Everest is like completing a 100 mile ultra marathon. Good to know!
without oxigen, and he did it twice in one week.
@@RJavier007 the fact is the he can't prove it. He is a sponsered athlete but can't provide decent data. That sucks!!!
@@anamorph What we can do is compare the record times of any 2 events.
“I think ultra runners, we are much more stupid than other athletes.”
Ultrabrain is a real disorder.
Has he not heard of base jumping?! 🤔😆
@@rob5694 I don't think BASE jumpers are "athletes" and especially not on the level of this guy.
O
Ultra runner would go with infra brain I think
Better than TH-cam brain tho.
there is people dying in trying to climb that mountain, and there is people once they have reach the top, just do it again...
There are...
@@Qwerty_789 there is...
Not "there is people." Not "and there are people."
There are people who die trying to climb that mountain, and there is one person who, after reaching the summit, just does it again.
Difference between professionals and fools
The people who die are almost always rich idiots who didn't train
His cardio Vascular Level is insane... Did he leave the Sherpas behind with that pace or what.
StealthAssasin 1Day probably not
The sherpas have genes of superathletes, they climb slow just because they are helping unskillful people to climb, they can reach the pace of this man, there are documentaries of the sherpas abilities in TH-cam.
Nani 17 they are not super athletes they just can absorb more oxygen in high altitudes if they were at sea level they wouldn’t have an advantage and would probably perform worse
@@patatastudios766 They can't absorb more oxygen at high altitudes, they just do not need as much oxygen because they have evolved to hold the height, the mitochondria inside their cells instead of burning fat burns carbohydrates to get energy, being at sea level would not affect anything the performance of them, a scientist in the video of the link that I leave literally says that they have genes of superathlete, which is like having Lebron James or Michael Jordan helping you to climb.
th-cam.com/video/zXHgbUjPhOU/w-d-xo.html
Ps: Sorry for my english.
Both times he climbed solo, without the use of supplemental oxygen, without fixed ropes, and without reliance on supplies or support. In fact, theres only 1 sherpa who has achieved similar feat in the past. Climbing Everest without oxygen twice in the same week has been done once before, in 2007 by Pemba Dorje Sherpa, whose ascents were seven days apart.
Extraordinary. Simply extraordinary. This man is so centered and so in touch.
"We are much more stupid, than other athletes" One of the best and honest opening sentences I have heard in a while!
Love this Guy!! more comfortable with avalanches than in a city....lol
he is an animal!! #beast
beast indeed. does anybody know when his fill climbing Everest airs?
Rudy Burgos A mountain GOAT
@@TexasCountryLiving mountain goat indeed
I think he was trying to say you could just as easily be involved in a traffic accident fatality while living the slow sheltered life
Isn't his voice enough without a silly soundtrack running in the background?
Kilian was largely my inspiration to travel to chamonix mont blanc several years ago and sprint up some of the mountains in the valley. At this point in my life, I had been running about 10km a day in Montreal. Unlike Kilian, however, my lungs were not as adapted to the mountains as my legs were. By the time I would reach 3000 m, I would experience vertigo and oxygen deprivation, the was a scuba diver would if they ascend from low depths too quickly. What I consider to be personal feats that I may never surpass would be to him nothing more than a morning routine.
Total beast mode..... Kilian is the BEST!!!!! And a super cool dude!!!
Wait... he was bored in base camp, so he decided to give Everest another go!? Lmao that's amazing.
That's a lie. Maybe
Imagine working your ass off trying to summit everest and this guy just comes running past you.
twice
Comes up and down before you go halfway
Twice
Not having an ass are would slow down one's pace significantly.
You're amazing bro!
"the thing that we can discover is ourselves" this is so awesome to hear!
cut the music
please
The GOAT! Such a freaking legend, and that’s even compared to a bunch of other sports.
Such an inspiring man
Awesome guy! 👍
Wins every big race... "Ehhh I was bored so I give Everest a go!"
Stewie 5.6k Twice. In 2 weeks.
Such a legend
Tenía ganas de hacer series y como no encontró algo más alto...
@runner's world, it took him 26 hours from the last village via basecamp to the summit.
Wow this guy is a beast.
VO2 Max of 92 and resting heartrate 38 🎉🎉🎉 And the sweetest kindest most humble person ever❤❤❤
I'm generally a skeptic but this guy looks like 100% genuine BEAST. amazing.
Kinda odd the absence of pics of him at top of Everest twice ??
@@amblincork There is a documentary about this, there is footage. Kilian is widely known as the best ultra runner/trail runner in the world and has been for more than a decade. He has won all of the biggest ultra races several times and has set fastest records on many that still stand today. He's also a mountaineer and grew up in the mountains, so this challenge was perfect for him.
@@lencekk Well that footage is not on thjs video for some very strange reason and what he has done in the past isnt relevant.
@@amblincork I hope you phrased that wrong, otherwise your logic is utterly trash.
Where are the pictures of him at the top of Everest ? On both occasions ??
this day and age, you would have thought there would be something.
@@SabotPottery Yes - it is funny how there are videos of him running on the top of other mountain peaks - he can hardly have forgotten to bring a campaign twice ??
@@amblincork you can understand the scepticism surrounding his claims, as even the Sherpas haven't ratified his claims (and for me that speaks volumes).
@@SabotPottery Yes - as a trail runner myself, it is very disappointing
We are lucky to still have an Ueli Steck around ; awesome killing it Kilian !
They are Insanely Sane👏👏👏💚💚💚😍😘😘
great Kilian
great congrats
I'm a fairly experienced mountaineer, but I was almost pissing my pants as he was running over those totally exposed ridges.
Killer Jornet. Legend!
Beast with Vo2max over 90.... Psycho.
he born up 2000mt until 10 years old i think this question is important for the blood
@@omarzardini4541 idk dude i have lived at 1600m my whole life and no one i know has anything close to that.
Awesome 😲
David Goggins lol. This guy's a beast
Meanwhile, I get exercise induced asthma and would pass out from having to run to catch the bus :(. Always wanted to run, especially trail run.
Sme you can train out of it
Eres increíble
Not human.
🤯
What record did he exactly make on Everest? Because fastest climb record of Everest is by Lhakpa Gelu Sherpa in 10 hrs 56 mins
Because it was still there
Is the answer because he left his singlases up there the first time?
This guy is an example of what humans are capable of doing when the right conditions are checked. We humans, as a species are capable of doing things we thought are impossible if we really put our all into it.
I think he forgot his phone at the peak after clicking selfie,so he went to get it back
So he summits the mountain, comes down, and summits again while others are recovering !
I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up being one of the future centenarians.
wow
Estás tó loco!!!
Fookin monster
It makes me laugh when people call Tom Brady the greatest athlete of all time. You can't compare throwing a ball to pushing the limits of the human body like Kilian Jornet, Brandon Semenuk, or any average X-games competitors.
Maquina
I'm an ultra runner myself, but what this guy does is something completely different. The vast majority of ultra runners does a combination of run/power walk, with the vast majority of steeper clims being power walking. being able to run a lot of it like Kilian does is something out of a sci-fi movie.
Ueli is smiling
did they know eachother ?
Jornet is not only an ultrarunner, he is an alpinist and a great skier. He is at home in the mountains. His V02 max is probably in the 80's and he is super fit. I wonder how many days he spent in basecamp to acclimate. Speed is safety on Everest.
More like 90's
@@brianharder7714 Maybe but he also probably has a high Hematocrit.
@@MidsierramusingBlogspot 92 ml/kg to be precise. There are many reasons Kilian is special, some we can measure, some we can't. He is a once in a generation athlete.
Can you tell me how to Run fast uphill? Wow 😯
Anybody got an idea if mountaineers do strenght/cardio exercises as a preparations before climbing the highest peeks? If so, how much do they train? Because this guy did his conditioning homework right and he seems fully prepared, while others don't seem so.
Think he trains 25 to 35 hours a week year round with 30 to 60k of elevation gain per week. 6 months of skiing a year. Just realised your comment was five years ago lol
And that is the Kilian Experience.
He did it because he could! AWESOME!
Killian Jornet you fucking rock!!!!!
Heart’s resting Kilian Jornet is 32 BPM
Has the same built and look of Alex Honnnold .. must be the phenotype for brilliant sportsmen.
Awesome!! Goes to show you that it's obviously not that difficult to climb!!! People make it out to be much harder than obviously it is. I love it.
I'd not say that. Killian won the Hardrock 100. I've seen tourists' lips turn blue just in Colorado at 13,000ft. This guy has some weird adaptations going on, he's a beast.
I couldn't find the film?
Anyone?!
KJ is a beast.
He's carrying oxygen cylinder inside his lungs 😂😂
Super human 🔥
YES YES YES YES YES. YES. YES.
NEAT. VERY NEAT.
I broke my ankle watching this video!!!
I assumed he left his phone up there the first time and went back to get it. But he's just bored?
Je regarde, je vois, mais j'en crois pas mes yeux 😂😂 courrir courrir et courrir... Il est incroyable !!!
I don’t think i need to race up a mountain to know my limits
高手中的高手！！！
I want to do this aswell
People 50 years ago: Mount Everest is extremely dangerous, it is ill advised for anyone other than the world’s most skilled mountain climbers.
People now: Hey let’s make Mount Everest a tourist trail and see who can run up it the fastest!
killian's a lifelong alpinist first. He only runs as cross training, as crazy as that sounds.
Wow. I thought it would be a clickbait title about somebody who climed "the equivalent of 2 Everests" in a week on a stairmaster or something.
Nope! What an animal.
How he could survive without oxygen? And what about AMS? Is he running on gasoline in his blood? I have so many questions.
the one guy.
Kilian "I feel better between mountains than ppl." Also him later on "So after I climbed Everest like a superhero, I had to wait at base camp for a week.....And just sit there....And talk.....about nothing......With a bunch of ppl.....Soooo after 2 min I was like 'Ok bro, this is enough, I'm going back to the summit, see u guys later on!"
Thanks Kilian finally someone who understands me!!!😁
this man is superhuman
Surely this is more of a how than a why question?
He is alien, no question.
Did Kilian ever race the Barkley’s Marathons?
Has he defeated The Barclay in Tennessee?
He dropped his phone somewhere on the route?
i don't think he has the normal ppl lung lol
He doesn't. His vo2 max is 90 something. Averga people is about 35
Mountain GOAT
I managed to smoke 192,000 joints before giving up. As each spliff was on average 4" in length it would take 87105 Js end upon end to reach the height of Mt Everest.
TLDR; I easily smoked twice the height of Mount Everest. Now that's commitment.
He did it because he can. Simples :)
Awesome! No tanks that’s unreal!
Смелый сильный человек
He should try the Barkley marathons.
He would probably do a couple extra laps just because he finished too quickly.
But we can't really find our physical limits though, because the argument can be made that you can always go faster and harder, if you just train hard enough. The same can be said for our mental limits. If there's a limit you have to train to overcome it.
Twice a week. How many weeks? Just one?
he looks like Jean Paul Belmondo
Unbelievable, put the video and photo from the top of the Everest.
