Imagine spending your whole life training to climb one of the harshest peak on the planet and you are about to reach the summit. You're elevated, you have a million thoughts going through you're and all of a sudden a dude skis past you on his way down. Absolute mad lad!!!
@@samishiekh lmao dude you couldn't be more wrong. Climbing down is more difficult because when you get down there is tremendous strain on your legs also there is constant fear of falling down so you need to maintain your grip. Also mountains like these have many crevices and faults which are easier to navigate when climbing up
@@samishiekh true but hear this out . The actual stress that you put on your legs is tremendous when going down. Also you are already exhausted when climbing the summit thus conserving energy becomes more critical while climbing down. Climbing down from heights around the alpine tree line is not a big deal but it's k2 climbing down here is certainly more difficult in either terms of energy consumption or the risks that climber has to face.
This guy climbed the summit of K2 solo without supplemental O2 & with Skis on his back and skied down K2. This man is out of this world, a genius and a prodigy!
The good thing about K2 is that it doesn't require supplement oxygen every time. Because weather in this karakoram region is mostly not harsh as compared to nepal tibet region. If you notice closely, most of the summiters doesn't carry oxygen tank also there is low windgusts so that you can breathe the thin oxygen.
this guy is just chilling on the top of the hardest mountain to climb, second tallest summit in the world, drinking redbull and talking about how it’s a little windy, you gotta love it
Maybe I'm just projecting, but he looks totally spent and clinging to life, pretending to drink out of a dented up empty. Thinking how silly it is and that nobody will see it if literally any of a million things goes wrong.
@D to the Alpinist Layman (like myself), Annapurna and K2 are 6/1-half dozen the other in difficulty; in any event, to think this brave cat skied K2 AFTER CLIMBING it is national thing short of staggering.
@@exshenanigan2333 You can't really plan for that. Small windows of climbable weather and multiple separate groups wanting to climb. You can't have the mountain to yourself.
@@offensiveintensive1034 Oh jeez man, if only the people who died climbing mountains had you for a guide they would be alive.

I think he got a little help (remember Redbull give you wings 😋)... Or Maybe he just got up (most of the traject) in a helicopter... Going down that many meters in those conditions seems insane 🤯 so: Great achievement anyways!!! 👏👏🙌
For the ones who do not know: K2 makes Everest look like a walk in the park. You can pay $100,000 and get a guide and 2 sherpas that will carry your gear, cook, set up your tent and lines to the summit of Everest. Nobody, ABSOLUTELY NOBODY will take you to the top of K2. Only experts, in top olympic athlete level physical condition and determination can summit K2, and only if the mountains allows it. 1 out of 4 climbers never get off that mountain. What this man did is unreal! How come this was not front page everywhere?
It's not frontpage news because climbing Mt. Everest is too common and cliche' these days, a commercial (Red Bull) and egotistic display rather than nature exploration.
To be fair, the 1 out of 4 stat is misleading. For every four people that summit there's one death on the mountain, but most people that climb on K2 neither summit nor die. They turn back and usually make it home safely. Doesn't make this achievement any less impressive though!
Buddy is out of breath just moving down 10 feet on those skis. That lack of oxygen is no joke and this man is a world class athlete of the highest caliber.
I've climbed K2 And Annapurna. Everest doesn't interest me in the slightest. This guy is killer, but he could have killed others on the Mountain that day and he would have been held responsible for his actions.
He made that descent look so easy while I'm still processing that he summited without supplemental oxygen. The way he greeted everyone he met on the way down was very nice too. What an amazing athlete 🙏
Did he summited himself or was upped by a helicopter or something? This was already freaking impressive but i assumed for a fact that he was lifted up there
@@Phamtom020 Helicopters don't fly that high except for one exception on Everest I believe once (in a heavily modified helicopter that couldn't carry much more than itself and the pilot up), that altitude is a normal cruising altitude for a passenger jet.
Incredible bravery not only from the man skiing but the support team, especially the small person who sat on his shoulders to record the whole thing amazing levels of trust!
I just can’t believe this is real. I’m fucking blown away. The balls on this guy... He must’ve made total peace with the idea that he is going to die. Truly amazing. Can’t say enough about him.
ditto on making peace with he's going to die! I was so worried he was going to slip at camp 3 or go over the edge onto those rocks later! What a guy! Jesus!
i don't know if he considered dying, he was trying to do this gic a yeare earlier and he quitted (i don't remember why) as well 2 years ago he wanted to ski everest but quitted as well as there was a hanging serac on a kumbu fall so looks like he won't take any risc whatsoever and i do believe he is a human, he just loves what he do and masters things to perfection
This is beyond amazing. What I find funny is that climbing K2 is already an extraordinary achievement, imagine having to go through that and, just when you are about to reach the summit, you see some dude casually skiing down ahahah
Sam K most likely. The teams usually coordinate with each other on summit attempts. Nonetheless, one thing is knowing about it another is seeing it. Must have been amazing to witness.
Red Bull- “just in case you freeze to death, or fall into some rocks or some shit, we’re going to need to get a clip of you drinking a Red Bull at the peak.”
To put this in perspective: it takes weeks to reach the summit of this mountain. Almost one in four people die during this climb and only 377 people have ever made it to the top. Then you have this madlad who decides to ski down it. An amazing achievement although I must add it was reckless considering there were so many people below him. He could have easily triggered an avalanche, something the K2 mountain is notorius for.
in the video you can see him saying "snow go right side" hes purposefully skiing down the fall line from the climbers, if an avalanche is triggered it will safely go down the side of the mountain, with all the climbers already above it
One climber died on the day he attempted this according to the wikipedia list... Really puts things in perspective, the same day an astonishing achievement was made, someone else lost their life on the same mountain.
The last video I watched, there was this guy telling how extraordinarily difficult it is to ascent to K2, people die every year, death valley and blah blah blah.... a video later, this guy is skiing down like he's in his grandma's backyard. Insane.
Its about weathers, when its summers u cnt summit And when its winter you can go to top and ski as its.snow ! Normally its high high risk to come in winters as weather is super high with lots of snow ! So this guy came in winters when its covered fully with snow
That’s insane! This guy climbed up the hardest peak in the world without supplementary oxygen, drank a Red Bull on the top without showing strong evidence of being exhausted, and went down on his skis, even in the steep parts and in the crests! Awesome!!
@@vukkekovic7005 air is too thin for a helicopter to fly up there that's why you are screwed if you get in trouble on everest, nobody is coming to get you. It's impossible to do so safely and helicopters are not an option
@@vukkekovic7005 he probably was not, even military helicopters that can fly higher than civilian choppers, can only fly at about 20,000 feet. The base camp at k2 is 18,000 feet, he might have been flown in to the base of the mountain. But that's it. There's only one way up mountains in the Himalayas and that is walking, if they had a really high altitude chopper they could maybe get him to camp one, but I highly doubt it.
cameras don't do slopes justice on how steep they are and that thing looks steep as HELL even through the camera. Can't belive he actually did that, what a mad lad
This is remarkable! This dude tried it the previous year but couldn't do due to bad weather n snow conditions but he didnt give up. He came back the year after and did it . Not only he climbed to the top without oxygen he also skied down in 8 hours ( 11000+ feet vertical slope) this is hands down the most impressive feat 👏
This is simply insane. Not skiing down, but climbing up. Every time when I carry my ski gears and walk in the ski resort, I feel tired very soon. Considering this is K2, the most deadly mountain, and he reached to the summit with ski gears on his back, I cannot imagine how difficult that is.
No there’s no way he got there climbing with a pack pack and ski gear not to forget the gear you need to climb, and he was all alone, and was asking questions about the location of the first camp, he got there on a helicopter 100000%.
@@zerubeus helicopters literally can’t fly that high up and they don’t even offer heli evacuations off k2 unlike one of Everest base camps where they can fly to. You need to look into this mountain or just check out what helicopters are capable of and you’ll realize this is 100% legit.
At about 7 or 8 minutes when he reaches a checkpoint and says “I need to catch my breath” was such a tense moment. Despite this man’s body being made of titanium, you could still feel the wear-and-tear of the mountain really getting to him. I can’t believe this happened. Very inspirational.
I can't imagine how many insane micro adjustments he had to make every second. The snow is so variable at that altitude and exposure. The amount of mental focus required to ski that is beyond comprehension. His heartbeat must've been a solid 180 the whole way down.
This video of the ski descent is absolutely amazing, made even more amazing by the fact that only the natural sounds are audible not some idiotic music. Thank you for posting this with real audio.
Nerve wracking just to watch. Picking his way down this Killer and just cringing at every turn. Amazing guts. Congratulations on staying alive and making history. You'll be reliving this until you're 90.
Climbing the hardest mountain in the world only to ski down on that type of snow/ice is unreal! Let alone the oxygen deprivation, cliffs of insanity, picking a line that you pray doesn't break away. This is one of the greatest sports achievements in history, akin to Alex Honnold free climbing El Capitan. My hats off to you sir!
@@adriandanel2563 He probably made it up the actual mountain itself, because the helicopter would have had a rough time after a certain altitude. As for the first two thirds of the hike, genius, there's a little thing called flying vehicles.

Impossible to climb k2 with without oxygen and carrying a backpack that size with all the ski gear and climbing gear, and find yourself all alone at the summit, he got there on a helicopter, all those who climbed k2 without o2 did it a alpine style and are spending much time on high altitude + 5k so the body adapt to low o2 lvl.
i love how casual these two are having a conversation on one of the hardest and most dangerous mountain in the world. They are literally having a conversation like they are on a hike at a local state park. Incredible
One of the most amazing and breathtaking things ever done and filmed in history. This is as impressive as Honnold's free solo of el Capitan, one mistake and it's over.
It is even more impressive if you know that he climbed K2 summit, alpine style, without supplemental oxygen and with skis on his back. Bargiel is one of the strongest and the fastest skialpinist/himalaist in the world.
Imagine you spend months busting your butt prepping for a K2 climb, shelling out a boatload of cash, tons of sacrifices, a million things racing through your head. As you're nearing the top, wondering if you'll even make it back down, suddenly some dude from Poland skis past you, sipping on a Red Bull, gives you a fist bump and just keeps going
What this doesn't show is that Andrzej did the remainder of the climb by himself, after his friend/guide was paralysed by lower back pain at the 7000m camp. What a fucking trooper.
@@nowhat5150 he's just noting the amount of bravery takes to do that last 1000m by ones self. The addition of a partner does help the mind and the travel but this man is just a champ considering the conditions
It’s physically impossible to ski down the entire way from the summit that’s why there are a lot of edits (just one example are the unavoidable rock bands plus then there’s the traverse at the bottleneck). He should get a lot of credit for skiing down the majority of the mountain but it’s a little misleading saying he skied the entire way
people who don't know what k2 actually is will think this man did nothing. But for those who know what K2 is, this man is absolutely next level.Kudos to him
i would have loved him to ask the climbers: „i‘m looking for the blue ski run to the valley, am i right here?“ pure insanity, unbelievable achievement!
Fredrick Ericsson attempted to be the first to ascend and ski down K2 in 2010, he never made the summit, he died on the ascent when a rock dislodged and he fell to his death. More than 10 years later what he attempted has been done, RIP Fredrik Ericsson, and props to who's achieved this.
worth mentioning Michele Fait tried aswell in 2019 and died on the way down. Respect to all of these humans for trying. Apologize for answering this 3 years later but I would love none of these guys to be forgotten
@@MrBonanistif you are seriously asking why, then you already don’t understand and explaining would be pointless. why does a fish swim? why does a bird fly?
How does one even conceive it in their mind to attempt this? I cannot wrap my mind around how insanely, utterly, extraordinarily difficult this feat is!
bruh this insane!! I've admired K2 since I was a kid having watched countless heartbreaking stories in docmentatries etc. Never thought someone would do this, balls of steel mate! K2 is fr the underrated one compared to Everest
This is incredible. First of all to do anything at the summit without oxygen is a feat in itself, and then to descend on skis is just amazing. Now it looks kinda slow and not so exciting to watch, but if you know anything about K2 and skiing then you realize how difficult and dangerous this is as controlling your speed of descent on such a steep mountain is nearly an inhuman feat of athleticism. It would be so easy to lose control and one single slip would mean almost certain death as there is no way to arrest the fall once the momentum picks up and many of the sections are nearly vertical. Other sections are on ridges with nothing on either side except ice or rock cliffs mere inches from his skis. There is another documentary called Zabardast which features a multinational team of skiers and snowboarders trekking through the himalayas and climbing up some other insane peaks to be the first people to make descents on skis and snowboards that is absolutely incredible to watch.
Was in Pakistan last year visiting family and I met a lot of Polish people who were climbing K2. I had no idea so many people from so many countries knew about K2's dangers and still want to climb it!! This guy is a legend
Unfortunately, as some of people in the comments point out, not all of those climbers had the chance to drink some beer and chill with Andrzej afterwards- Kojiro Watanabe fell during the descent in the Bottleneck not long after this video was taken.
2:15 That is the Japanese team. The last member of that group in yellow is Kojiro Watanabe. Soon after this video was taken he slipped on unstable snow and died while descending through the bottleneck.
The weather was amazing, the drone footage is amazing and I got so tense watching his decent from camp 3. One false move could easily have been the end of him after accomplishing so much. Congratulations Andrzej !
The other day, I watched a Japanese National ski down Mt. Everest. The National just took off down Everest with skis and a parachute to slow him down. (He crashed and survived) This dudes ski down from K2 was slow and measured. That’s why he was successful.
@@agnostica_x "most" as in not all the way. Also they can reach that height but cannot stay stationary. There is even a dude that landed a helicopter on the top of mount Everest.
I am holding my breath as I watch him catch his breath as he skiis. I am so impressed. I have been watching a lot of videos about the Manaslu, Lhotse, K2 and Everest.
One of the most insane things I've ever seen. I was almost too scared to watch. And seeing him do the Messner traverse had my heart in my throat. There were only a few scenes where you could really get the depth of the steepness. And it was like that all the way down. From the top in the clouds to the lower end where the snow turned hard had me on the edge of my seat. An absolutely amazing feat. Glad he made it!
Hans Kammerlander is the guy who was the first to descend high altitude Mountains with skis in the 70ies or so. He describes in an interview that this style of skiing is the shitties and ugliest «You will never win style points with high-altitude skiing» 😂
Absolutely love the vibe. Very pleased with the general moving away from flashy photography and pumpy music in outdoor adventure videos - the type of people who are truly interested in and inspired by this type of feat are not the type who want flashy videography. We want pure experience, to feel it the way the athlete feels it. The lack of music and constant sound of his breath creates such a tense atmosphere which of course is nothing compared to what he is experiencing, but at least we get a glimpse. Thanks so much!
Red bull videos have traditionally been about glorifying adrenaline junkies and making them look like gods, but there is a growing market for suffer/exhaustion junky videos with a more human component.
I can't imagine the amount of adrenaline and pure power this guy must experience. 1st summit one of the highest peaks in the world, 2th ski down this peak and be 1st person in the world to do so. Respect 🙏
this video is like putting whole body in the mouth of lion. I'm born in k2 valley. it's so harsh to see such a great bravery moment. love from shigar valley Pakistan.
K2 is in my hometown, To descend K2 by Ski mean you are going to suicide at your own will.What type of heart this man has in his chest I don't know.That pakistani at bottom was waiting for him to congratulate with a flower every.
The Pakistani gentleman at bottom was waiting for him to congratulate him with a flower, which was one of the most beautiful moment he might have never imagine that someone would wait for him. A sign of appreciation for such a great achievement!
In my very limited experience of skiing, ski slopes look a lot steeper to you when you are on them than they look to the camera. I think it is hard to tell from the video how steep the mountain slope truly is and I think it is a lot steeper than it looks.
I think he's referring to which side he should be skiing so he isn't sending snow/slough onto people climbing up. He doesn't want to kill people because he caused an avalanche with his slough by skiing above them. He even talks about trying not to kill people with the guy at camp 3.
JOBoarder27 I get what you’re saying but seems like he’s climbed using the same ropes so he should know where it goes, also the question doesn’t really make sense

Then you have this madlad who decides to ski down it. An amazing achievement although I must add it was reckless considering there were so many people below him. He could have easily triggered an avalanche, something the K2 mountain is notorius for.
in the video you can see him saying "snow go right side" hes purposefully skiing down the fall line from the climbers, if an avalanche is triggered it will safely go down the side of the mountain, with all the climbers already above it
One climber died on the day he attempted this according to the wikipedia list... Really puts things in perspective, the same day an astonishing achievement was made, someone else lost their life on the same mountain.
@@erwinc.9117 Yep tjis is very sad.. Its the last Guy in yellow at 2:24 rip
... was going to say: "dude wtf are you doing creating avalanches here!!"
@@MrCollewet really?
The last video I watched, there was this guy telling how extraordinarily difficult it is to ascent to K2, people die every year, death valley and blah blah blah.... a video later, this guy is skiing down like he's in his grandma's backyard. Insane.
there is a difference between going there in summer and winter
Its about weathers, when its summers u cnt summit
And when its winter you can go to top and ski as its.snow !
Normally its high high risk to come in winters as weather is super high with lots of snow ! So this guy came in winters when its covered fully with snow
Normally people summit in summers as the roads to last village are closed, he would have come with special permission
This goes in my list of comments posted before actually watching the video

"just remember, your legally required to sip the drink at the summit"
well, they enable him to live from such adventures.
Red bull owns all of the media red bull athletes appear in so might as well
They sponsored him so...I’m assuming it’s probably just water inside the can
As he should red bull paid for all of this
A couch potato who sips enough Red Bull will be able to do this.😂
Ja już nie wiem ile razy to widziałam i dalej tu wracam. Gratulacje dla całej drużyny i czapki z głów dla Andrzeja 🎉🇵🇱
Tez
That’s insane! This guy climbed up the hardest peak in the world without supplementary oxygen, drank a Red Bull on the top without showing strong evidence of being exhausted, and went down on his skis, even in the steep parts and in the crests! Awesome!!
Hmm I dont think he climbed it. I think he was brought to the summit with a helicopter
@@vukkekovic7005 maybe he received some help, he could be left at 6000 meters, but an helicopter can’t reach the summit (over 8000 meters)
@@vukkekovic7005 air is too thin for a helicopter to fly up there that's why you are screwed if you get in trouble on everest, nobody is coming to get you. It's impossible to do so safely and helicopters are not an option
@@rylandavis2976 Yea I know it, my mistake, But I still think he was brought up to some point
@@vukkekovic7005 he probably was not, even military helicopters that can fly higher than civilian choppers, can only fly at about 20,000 feet. The base camp at k2 is 18,000 feet, he might have been flown in to the base of the mountain. But that's it. There's only one way up mountains in the Himalayas and that is walking, if they had a really high altitude chopper they could maybe get him to camp one, but I highly doubt it.
this guy should have been sponsored by K2
I know right. Just seems wrong not to do it on K2s... 🙈🤔

K2? Is there a company called K2?
@@kkon5ti no it's a synthetic drug
cameras don't do slopes justice on how steep they are and that thing looks steep as HELL even through the camera. Can't belive he actually did that, what a mad lad
This is remarkable! This dude tried it the previous year but couldn't do due to bad weather n snow conditions but he didnt give up. He came back the year after and did it . Not only he climbed to the top without oxygen he also skied down in 8 hours ( 11000+ feet vertical slope) this is hands down the most impressive feat 👏
Vids like this are so much better without backgound music. Thanks
In all my years of skiing I've never seen anything like this. Shocking and yet inspiring. Congratulations!
This is simply insane. Not skiing down, but climbing up.
Every time when I carry my ski gears and walk in the ski resort, I feel tired very soon.
Considering this is K2, the most deadly mountain, and he reached to the summit with ski gears on his back, I cannot imagine how difficult that is.
Plus no bottled oxygen
I've never skied in my life but that also looked INSANE to me. It looks so steep it gives me vertigo just watching it.
2nd deadliest mountian. Annapurna I is the deadliest with a third of climbers not surviving the decent compared to a quarter for K2
No there’s no way he got there climbing with a pack pack and ski gear not to forget the gear you need to climb, and he was all alone, and was asking questions about the location of the first camp, he got there on a helicopter 100000%.
@@zerubeus helicopters literally can’t fly that high up and they don’t even offer heli evacuations off k2 unlike one of Everest base camps where they can fly to. You need to look into this mountain or just check out what helicopters are capable of and you’ll realize this is 100% legit.
At about 7 or 8 minutes when he reaches a checkpoint and says “I need to catch my breath” was such a tense moment. Despite this man’s body being made of titanium, you could still feel the wear-and-tear of the mountain really getting to him. I can’t believe this happened. Very inspirational.
I can't imagine how many insane micro adjustments he had to make every second. The snow is so variable at that altitude and exposure. The amount of mental focus required to ski that is beyond comprehension. His heartbeat must've been a solid 180 the whole way down.
Brave as hell. You know it's real when a pro is leaning back and skidding like I do on a regular slope.
This video of the ski descent is absolutely amazing, made even more amazing by the fact that only the natural sounds are audible not some idiotic music. Thank you for posting this with real audio.
OK looks like I posted too soon, the real documentary is the one with the idiotic music throughout.
Nerve wracking just to watch. Picking his way down this Killer and just cringing at every turn. Amazing guts. Congratulations on staying alive and making history. You'll be reliving this until you're 90.
All the guys climbing up were like WTF??Hypoxia making me hallucinate....
Epic✋👍
hahahah true that!
Absolutely 😂👌🏽
Climbing the hardest mountain in the world only to ski down on that type of snow/ice is unreal! Let alone the oxygen deprivation, cliffs of insanity, picking a line that you pray doesn't break away. This is one of the greatest sports achievements in history, akin to Alex Honnold free climbing El Capitan. My hats off to you sir!

Impossible to climb k2 with without oxygen and carrying a backpack that size with all the ski gear and climbing gear, and find yourself all alone at the summit, he got there on a helicopter, all those who climbed k2 without o2 did it a alpine style and are spending much time on high altitude + 5k so the body adapt to low o2 lvl.
K2 was in a very,very,veeery good mood that day.... Congratulations ! ! ! :)
i love how casual these two are having a conversation on one of the hardest and most dangerous mountain in the world. They are literally having a conversation like they are on a hike at a local state park. Incredible
I agree but hike at the local skate park?
This is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen. Congratulations to Andrzej and his brother on the drone!
Wow just wow , as someone else said the degree of difficulty in that is off the roof. And you can hear how icy the snow is. Just a 100 out 10.
One of the most amazing and breathtaking things ever done and filmed in history. This is as impressive as Honnold's free solo of el Capitan, one mistake and it's over.
he is crazy
What is the meaning of "Shang " in your name because it is our village name.
It is even more impressive if you know that he climbed K2 summit, alpine style, without supplemental oxygen and with skis on his back. Bargiel is one of the strongest and the fastest skialpinist/himalaist in the world.
Agreed
No
Imagine you spend months busting your butt prepping for a K2 climb, shelling out a boatload of cash, tons of sacrifices, a million things racing through your head. As you're nearing the top, wondering if you'll even make it back down, suddenly some dude from Poland skis past you, sipping on a Red Bull, gives you a fist bump and just keeps going

Umm what are you trying to say?
what was his name, what's the story?
@@nowhat5150 he's just noting the amount of bravery takes to do that last 1000m by ones self. The addition of a partner does help the mind and the travel but this man is just a champ considering the conditions
I've pulled that excuse to get out of work once or twice.
It’s physically impossible to ski down the entire way from the summit that’s why there are a lot of edits (just one example are the unavoidable rock bands plus then there’s the traverse at the bottleneck). He should get a lot of credit for skiing down the majority of the mountain but it’s a little misleading saying he skied the entire way
This mountain gets a 1/5 from me. No lifts and awful snow.
lmao
and the summit is always windy...
Terrible lodges, hard to get to, bad accomodations, unpredictable weather, and the locals do not bathe. 1/5 is generous.

From your comment one can see that you are a peasant when it comes to extreme sports. It’s not a place to chill. Just go to Thailand on a budget.

bruh this insane!! I've admired K2 since I was a kid having watched countless heartbreaking stories in docmentatries etc. Never thought someone would do this, balls of steel mate! K2 is fr the underrated one compared to Everest
This is incredible. First of all to do anything at the summit without oxygen is a feat in itself, and then to descend on skis is just amazing. Now it looks kinda slow and not so exciting to watch, but if you know anything about K2 and skiing then you realize how difficult and dangerous this is as controlling your speed of descent on such a steep mountain is nearly an inhuman feat of athleticism. It would be so easy to lose control and one single slip would mean almost certain death as there is no way to arrest the fall once the momentum picks up and many of the sections are nearly vertical. Other sections are on ridges with nothing on either side except ice or rock cliffs mere inches from his skis. There is another documentary called Zabardast which features a multinational team of skiers and snowboarders trekking through the himalayas and climbing up some other insane peaks to be the first people to make descents on skis and snowboards that is absolutely incredible to watch.
Yup

You are absolutely correct. Video does not show the real steepness on mountians.

I think he's referring to which side he should be skiing so he isn't sending snow/slough onto people climbing up. He doesn't want to kill people because he caused an avalanche with his slough by skiing above them. He even talks about trying not to kill people with the guy at camp 3.
