Thankyou . I didn"t expect to see this but it has bought back great memories of Ger , who I knew both in Nepal and Holland . He was one of the most fun people I met during that time and the most gifted climber that grew up below sea level ever - his home was on reclaimed land and I believe he built a climbing training area in its attic . To climb Jannu is exceptional and a great career laid ahead of him , but to those who knew him his quality was already apparent , and he knew that with great beauty comes great risk . I will remember the good times but for now ,tears fall ,36 years later ,
You'd be surprised. Big wall sleeping on a hanging cot, ice seracs, or crevasses, land slides. You can do everything right and still get destroyed. What it comes down to is mitigating risk, and being comfortable with that calculated danger. This is overcome with training and proper equipment. When you have confidence in those, it makes technical rock and ice climbing not easy, but not as daunting.
I think it adds well to your repertoire to discuss different peaks and mountain ranges around the world, and not always about the 8000+. Listening to different routes and less well-known mountains keeps the interest high.
My favourite of the wilderness tragedies channels - no clickbait thumbnails, no unnecessary dramatization, no sensationalist speculation, just interesting cases and sticks to the cold hard facts!
He really is the best and so underated. Incredible no nosense narration. Not being some soy character over the top. The back ground music is absolutely perfect. I love Morbid Midnights videos so much. I hike alot and spend many many nights out in the back country. These videos make me realise that i never wanna take it further, im happy doing what i do. Ill brave grizzlies over avanlanches any day
I am addicted to this channel. I always have loved mountains, although I never got to experience climbing them. Much respect for all who do and to those who died doing what they loved.
I've read more than a few books on Himalayan peaks and wondered why I never heard of this mountain. Now I know. Also, thanks for putting height in feet for us metrical challenged Americans.✌️👍✌️
You do such a good job with these videos. I've been subscribed for quite a while now and I'm always looking forward to the next one. Its not over-the-top or clickbaity, its relevant, well researched, well-explained and respectful to those in the stories. Each one has a lesson to be learned. I'm a big hiker, and those lessons aren't lost on me. Thanks.
The wall of Shadows, that has to be the coolest name. Like a hard level in a video game. I see why the ancients referred to mountains as gods. Jannu as a very imposing shape
Multiple overnight stays at 20k plus feet with no O2 no heat source this mountain is completely insane it won’t be summited again anytime soon damn !!!!
this mountain being situated at remotest part of nepal most mountaineers prefer not to attempt it due to its technicality and irrelevance due to kanchenjunga being near.most sherpa guides aren’t even willing to guide people due to its remoteness and religious beliefs.jannu is the game given by westerners it’s original name is Kumbhakarna which is a demon who sleeps alots and gets very angry upon waking him up
When you were describing camping out on the exposed face and all the other hazards, I'm truly in my head going, "HOW is this fun?? Why do people do this again??" I don't think I will ever understand this extreme kind of mountain climbing.
Very sad ending. I wondered about the site of camp two when the video showed it right under the ice fall. The lads would have been better off bivvying on the plateux given the time of day after being warmed by the sun all day an ice fall was highly likely. RIP.
That’s actually totally opposite of what you would want to do because an ice fall is actually much more dangerous during the day and after sunset after it has been warmed, that’s when it stabilizes that’s when it’s been melted. Do you know what happens to snow and ice in the sun, right? That’s why climber always cross ice Falls ideally early early in the morning a.k.a. the middle of the night because the lack of sun and subzero temperatures for an extended period mean that the ice is going to be a lot more stable and the likelihood of trouble is going to be a lot less, the same would be true with seracs and other high pitch snow covered peaks daytime and sunlight are a recipe for disaster. you want to stay the fuck away from them in general under those conditions
@@jordanalandry1866 I think you misunderstood what I meant. I said a bivvie ABOVE the ice fall would have been a possible better option. THen they could have descended before dawn when it is safest, as you point out.
I've been addicted to racing (extreme road racing - when I was younger), pro watercraft racing where the water is as hard as concrete, skydived, base jumped and wingsuited, kinda proxy at times... Full technical wreck and cave diver... Lots of risky hobbies that I"m phasing out with agre... One thing I have NO interest in is extreme mountain climbing... It holds no interest to me... Yes, I collect summiting 14'ers here in the USA, but I would rather fight russians as a merc for Ukraine before these death marches. No doubt I could roll the dice, and with a lot of training, conditioning, and financing I think I'd make it and live (possibly) to do other normal crazy sh!t another day... There is a difference in all of the extreme things I have done.. You can't make any of them safe, but when it comes to serious underwater cave exploration, wreck diving really deep, where it'll be a few hours before you can safely off-gas and crack the surface again.. Well, generally there is a ton of math and training in the planning and execution of the dive. However, these mountains... You can do everything RIGHT and mother nature will cut you down like a bug with icing on it's wings. I'm NOT dogging on these climbers... K2, Everest, etc etc.. I think the professional (not paid, or paid, but they truly know what they are doing as apposed to tourist climbers) are exceptional, and I do follow a lot of channels covering things.. My heart truly hurts for those who reach for the top, yet then become a unliving body-memorial on places like Everest.. Mad respect to the real climbers.. I have NO respect for tourist climbers, especially when Sherpas and others die trying to save their rich people ambitions...
For people who hate the fast paced rat race we live in the West, the pure tranquality and serenity of the mountains can be just the thing we need to cope with the normal 9-5 life back home. And on top of that there's also the measuring yourself with nature's biggest landmarks, with each other, exploring new and unclimbed mountains and routes, the thrill of danger, and so on.
@@pieterveenders9793 I mean, I get what you're saying... but it still makes no sense to me. I mean I get the sense of accomplishment, I "climbed" a WAY smaller deal a while back, and while it was cool to say I did and I was kinda proud after the fact, it was not even close to worth it for the risk. The risk it to biscuit ratio just doesn't compute in my brain. Props to those who do it though, no disrespect, they are built different than me for sure.
driving in your car is death waiting to happen, people are driving right now blasting music, drunk, high. Not to mention your going to die anyway. This mountain is scary from what i can see. Doubt many will be signing up for a piece of that.
We all "just appear" on this scrabble board of life with indecipherable game rules and a timer that goes dark after a few flickers around the sun. Finding experiences that can light up your circuits and leave them glowing is apt to lead you chasing dragons.
flatlander here. I live on the high desert of Kansas @ 1100 feet above sea level. Just as I climb Wolf Pass out of Walsenberg, Colorado, I get altitude sickness. I must immediately retreat back down into more oxygen. :-/ I live in the bottom of a fragile sea of gases, gasping for one precious element. O2 is my friend. Honors to the anearobics.

@@counterfit5 That's good. And, horribly, surprisingly unusual. The attitude towards Sherpas in the comments beneath most mountaineering videos on TH-cam is, well, almost aggressively dismissive or outright hate filled. Most such videos go into great great details about the wealthy and/or western climbers. Talk about their childhoods, their parents, sibling, spouses, children. Talk about their fantastic characters and how everyone loves them. Then the death story is related, Sometimes it is revealed just how many Sherpas were killed in the attempts to get the Hero of this story back. But often they merit no mention at all. Nevermind anything as extraneous as their names. I found this so bizarre & heartless, that I began mentioning it. I said that I found it strange that there were so many people who were willing to risk the lives of OTHER people for THEIR OWN enjoyment or aspiration. What I received back from other commenters was astonishing. Zero comments saying anything about how this situation was bad. But hundreds of comments saying things such as "they were lucky to be able to get the job' "their families have no right to whine" "they know the risks" "people like them always complain when the work gets hard". Eventually I realized that the attitude manifested in the comments is the reason this situation has come about & has been allowed to continue. They viewed the Sherpas as not even just unimportant, but with actual distain, and regarded them as deeply inferior...as though they subscribe to the worst of (completely debunked) social Darwinism. They displayed the same sort of contempt I hear people aiming at the Homeless or migrant workers, or refugees from famine & war. As regards mountaineering: What is the point of "achieving a goal" or "showing the triumph of your will" if your "achievement" was bought with the corpses of others & you have emptied your soul of any humanity.
Good documentary, however it would have been more complete to name the other men in the photo. I believe that they contributed in no small part to the other men attempting the summit.
This is exactly why climbers that only climb the highest peaks are not big deals at all. They don't want to face the real challenges, they only want to virtue signal how they are somehow special for doing all the 7 now normy mountains. Which have already been achieved by others long before them. Real climbers would go against some real challenges and care not for those 7 peaks, yet they seem to only care about being number something something on some long long lists instead.
@@attention_shopping At some level I can agree with you, BUT it's gotten so bad on Everest that otherwise decent and sensible people are being exploited and put directly into harm's way for morons with more money than sense.

@@johnreilly8672Who doesn't?
There is no way I could sleep knowing all that ice was hanging above me.
Yeah, I’d be absolutely terrified. But I think they’re just so tired after climbing that sleep probably comes easy despite the circumstances.
If there’s a silver lining it’d be that if the ice came down you’d probably be dead faster than your brain could register any pain.
you would be so tired you'd pass out

a fasccinating story which i did not know of a place i did not know. My only gripe is that i am not surethat i would describe this as a disaster,
