I’ve recently been watching mountaineering disaster videos and documentaries and I can’t tell you how happy I am that even though you got to 8300 meters you knew your limit and turned around. So many lives were lost due to Summit Fever and I’m over the moon that you weren’t one of them. You had the sense and mental fortitude to turn back and reach your goal a year later. Summiting is optional, getting down alive is mandatory. So so happy. ♥️
Well done on getting into the Death Zone, turning around when you did and getting home safe. Congratulations on an all-round superb effort. And nice vid too btw.
Hi Ricky - well done on getting to Camp 3 also! I really struggled in 2011 as got sick with HAPE earlier on which I never recovered from all expedition. I went back in 2012 and reached the summit on the morning of 19 May. Good luck for your return and thanks for the comments!
I was feeling very weak and the wind speed was very strong, my fingers were starting to freeze and it was all not very nice so I turned back. I returned this year and reached the summit - you can read more in my blog - the website link attached above.
Takes a brave man or woman to know when to turn around. So glad you were ultimately able to summit, but I am almost more impressed that you were able to turn around.
Between camp 3 and the summit there’s something like 20 bodies, and down the cliff face beneath the steps is the rainbow valley. Called that due to the different colors of down suits scattered across the valley, lots and lots of corpses: something like 150 on the north side
My neighbour has a shrine to himself for climbing Mt Everest. He paid $25,000 to a company who planned the trip, cooked his food, carried all his supplies, arranged lines and placed new ones where needed. There were dedicated photography/video sherpas awaiting him at key points. There was a guide to follow him closely during the ascent and a sherpa that carried extra oxygen just for him. Tents were pre-erected at camps. He had very little climbing experience before hand. The photo of him on the summit is 4 feet tall at his house. He also has a water buffalo stuffed in his house. He paid a hunting lodge in Africa to take him out to shoot one. He accidentally informed me he didn't even have to get out of the Range Rover. Crap like this doesn't count unless you do it yourself. There's a line between adventurer and tourist.
Well, I assume he is not a sherpa that is biologically adapted to high altirudes and low oxygen levels. Climbing and summiting Mt. Everest, 800 metres above the death zone, is still an achievement that he should be proud of. That being said, the majority of Westerners would not be able to achieve this without the aid of the underpaid and often underapriciated Sherpas.
Well unless they carry you to the summit, it is still a monumental achievement for a non professional mountaineer. One would naturally be proud.Not in favour of hunting though as that is so unfair .. gun against unarmed animal .. that's pathetic I agree.
Thank you for helping me contrast the two routes finally. I mistakenly thought that a north face attempt required climbing up the western ridge and got confused by the mistaken belief that the steps 1,2, and three were only used by the south face climbers. but now clearly see that both approaches converge below those steps, referenced so often on the southern more common approach videos. thanks for taking the time to teach people with this video about such a magnificent part of our world. your awsome.
Hi, A little correction. The South Face climbers do not go through the Steps 1,2 and 3. The South Col and North route ( described in this video) converge only at the Summit of Mt. Everest. South face climbers only have the Hillary step, which has gotten much easier now, as they have found a way around it.
Nice idea - a little difficult for me to do this with Google Earth as I was using the fly through option, will play around with your idea for my next video's!
You are for sure a very smart and educated climber and a disciplined one too! It is very easy to lose focus up there when you’re so close. All too many times, people who get that close will opt to push for the summit. It takes discipline and the knowledge of ones body to know when is when. Great video and I hope you make it to the top of the world, as climbers like you deserve that moment, and it’ll come if it hasn’t already been accomplished! Good luck and stay safe!
Hello Mahamad, It is very tough to walk, climb, breath, even sit and tie your shoe laces at high altitude. It is fantastic to have big dreams, but I would suggest you take small steps on your way to your goal. Gain experience mountaineering and also progressively trekking or climbing to higher altitudes first. There is many commercial teams who you can join up with which you can find on the internet. Good luck and have a wonderful adventure!
wow...I mean you were close! I'm sure the rest of the way was extremely hard to climb, but you looked close to the summit. Thanks for sharing. FULL RESPECT goes to you and your team.
Not really close...the summit is 300 meters higher than his high point....he didn't even make it to the NE ridge, and the Three Steps are no joke. That's a lot of climbing.
Hi Jodie, I just saw your channel. With the challenges you face then climbing Everest would seem so difficult I think. You seem very brave and very talented at making video's as well! I wish you all the best Jodie and thanks for dropping by. Axe
awsome - loved the 'mt everest - half way point' :) hopefully will be there 2013 or 14 depending on my money saving skills ;) next week io'm off to anchorage and mckinley!
Hello Tom - I used google earth to create this flythrough. You can email me or contact me through my website mentioned at the end of the video to find out more info! Thanks for watching and commenting!
brilliant. Just read 'into the Silence' by Wade Davis, and have pictured this route many times in my head. What are the two pieces of music playing? And which motion picture used the first one? Read the above book. You will not be disappointed.
Hello Tuco, I have not climbed by the SOuth Col route, but will attempt to make the same thing for that route over the next week or two. Stay tuned. Regards, Grant.
unbelieavable how a human being can climb that mountain, 27k feet plus? i wish i could meet 1 person who climbed Everest. Nice music, i keep coming back to watch it from time to time. it's my favorite!
I met a guy when i studied in nepal named tengrath sherpa, he summited everest in 2004 and he used to tell me what a behemoth of a mountain it is and it feels like being in a different planet at that altitude and it all feels like a dream but a very dangerous dream in which u have to stay awake and mind every step you take, slight slip would send you down the mountaing into the roaring abyss of the long spread himalayas.the main objective was not only reaching the summit but getting the heck down, after the tiring climb to the top and thats when the clock starts to tick lying ahead unpredictable weather, fear of avalanches,your body is shutting down slowly and u see slopes and icefalls u have to traverse through the body criea for help after spending time at the death zone where oxygen is depeleted making your brain go awry. To get down and go back home and recoup your body and the thought of the times that were spent in the mountain inspite of the hardwork it took to finally reach the top and see the curvature earth and the entire himalayas to sudden realization that you are at the top of the world, This feeling will forever be haunting me to see the view that only few people in this world has seen is something else.
Awesome, RAF Mountain Rescue had good success on this route but not so sadly for the Hereford team who tried the North Face route some years earlier... RIP Tony Swierzy & [Andy Baxter] Thank you for your company and your assistance in the Paul Rodgers Bill Scott Rescue...
Agree! K2 is one of the most Technical Mountains to climb. Let's not forget Nanga Parbat. But I do agree that that K2 and everest are different climbs for sure. I was just making the point that, man, everest is still a very hard mountain.
It i expensive to climb Everest by any means. Think in the order of US$40- 80,000 dollars depending so much on which route, and what style you climb in. Its easy go start climbing. Go find a mountain and start heading up it! You can only learn by trying. Or take an Alpine experience course which are available in many countries around the world. Good luck!
It’s not that Mt Everest is huge, it’s just humans are so delicate and small. Ants are not that much smaller than humans, yet they are a 100 times stronger. Humanity is very small!
you can sense your exhilaration at having achieved the 8150m mark and one and the same time your utter crushing disappointment and longing to have gone on to the summit - those 3 steps look very nasty - like sheer rock face covered in ICE - you were FAR from the summit still even though it seems like you were "close" the actual effort required to have made it there would have been tremendous - nice video
It doesn't look so technical from Tibet yet it seems way longer, you spend more time at higher altitudes and farther away from any help most of the time than in the south route. It must be amazing to do mixed climb from one side and return from the other. Has anyone done this?
Yes doing a full traverse would be awesome but the problem with this is that the border of tibet and nepal is on the summit and getting permission to ascend one route and descend the other side is practically impossible it seems these days.
Thanks for the wonderful video. Interesting to see that most of the way there is no ice or snow. However, i read that north side of the Everest has usually bad weather.
One Day I will see you Everest. Thanks for sharing this great video. It made easier to understand. :) It seems like that from bingeing to Changeste Base Camp I can ride my dirt bike.
The south route looks like it has much more gravel and snow free sections. Has anyone ever gone up one side and down the other?Is it the highest mountain? I have heard that the Andes stick out farther from the earth's center ergo its highest mountain is the actual highest on the planet. Also if you consider the vertical height from base to summit, Mona Loa has the greatest distance from top to bottom.
Hi Jody.You should not fly directly to the basecamp of Mt Everest, because this is already very high at over 5000m. You will get altitude sickness and could die within 24 hours if you try this.You need to climb slowly to basecamp over the course of a few days to let your body acclimatise to the lower and lower oxygen. There are two main basecamps, the south side and the north side. The southside you need to walk to, the north side from this video where I climbed from you can drive to.
Hi Edwin - basecamp is at the foot of the mighty Rongbuk Glacier and at the end of the road head. After basecamp you are on the ice of glacier so not a good spot for basecamp and vehicles to access.
The south route simulation is much easier to read. I couldn't read a lot of the markers on this one. I also wish a lot of this was speeded up. Four to five minutes for a video like this is good. Nine minutes is pushing my patience way too much. I ended up skipping through a lot. Just a friendly technical critique. I do appreciate what's been done here.
+Callme Ishmael I agree with you completely! This was the first 3d fly through I made - since this time I have tried to make them faster and shorter with more interesting captions - (see my K2 fly through) - appreciate your comments.
+Callme Ishmael ...............you can speed up the video by clicking the gear- icon on the lower right of the screen and choose 1.25, 1.5 (no-audio) or 2.0 playback speed.
now am going to nepal in october just crossing to tibet, i have no training in climbing. is it possible to climb in a group up till death point and back, or is it still fatal in extreme weather conditions and altitude sickness. how much will it cost to make these arrangements
Holy Crap I knew it was a long hike just to get to the base but wow that was pretty far. I know I would never survive the climb but this tour was cool. Thanx for posting.
And can you believe that one of the major expedition companies now does this in 32 days? And I love the inclusion of Lisa Gerard & Hans Zimmer’s “Now We Are Free” as the North Col approaches.
The American expedition in 1963 accomplished the first traverse of the mountain, up the west ridge and down the south col route. Tom Hornbein and Willi Unsoeld did it, and the Hornbein Couloir on the north side of the mountain is named after him.
I think I saw Mallory laying off to the side near the end of the video, wow. Was he wearing leather climbing boots? If so, that was definitely him that I saw.
@@gregkosinski2303 With 20-30lbs being about the max you should carry to the actual summit, people don't carry an additional 10lbs of just about anything at that altitude and incline, much less 6' long skis strapped to a backpack. A very small handful of chads have done it though. Hans Kammerlander holds the title currently and that mfer even did it without oxygen which is ludicrous in itself.
Hi Laksman, The route with the highest probability of success is the traditional route from the South Side. I made a 3d flythough of that route also which you can see on my video channel. I am on facebook so you can find me there also :)
Hi Saeed17 - I have tried a few times to change the settings but cannot work out how to do it in TH-cam. If you can tell me how to change the settings I would gladly do it.
Just WOW!! This is FANTASTIC!! Yes, I had to shout that. I have been absorbing everything Everest for days now and have not gotten a real feel for what these climbers go through to climb (and camp) until watching this video!! Now I can go back and make heads and tails of what they're talking about with references to the different areas, parts, difficulties, altitudes, etc. and understand much, much better. Thanks so very much for this. Any way to do the same video but slow it down some? Especially from camp 4 to the Summit? Also, everyone mentions the heights and hours it takes to climb them, but never in terms of miles. I'd love to know the difference of miles between given points, since sometimes climbers are walking across and not up, its difficult to translate just from feet heights. Again, thanks ~ this is going to make watching these other adventures much, much more interesting!!
Hi, this was the first ever three d fly through I made, since then I have learnt and refined the process and don't move the camera around so much, thanks for your feedback anyway.
I tried climbing Everest from the north side but got to the 3rd step but I got out because I was exhausted and cold I was so close to the top .. I try again but this time from the south side
That’s crazy. But very smart choice you obviously listened to your body being that close and turning back. Did you manage to summit on your next attempt?
I’ve recently been watching mountaineering disaster videos and documentaries and I can’t tell you how happy I am that even though you got to 8300 meters you knew your limit and turned around. So many lives were lost due to Summit Fever and I’m over the moon that you weren’t one of them. You had the sense and mental fortitude to turn back and reach your goal a year later. Summiting is optional, getting down alive is mandatory. So so happy. ♥️
Especially considering this is considered the more difficult of the 2 main routes. 8300 meters is an accomplishment of its own.
He chickened out.
Loving this in 2023. Congrats on getting that high!
Thanks! This really made it easy..now I can take climbing Mt Everest off my bucket list.
Me too! What a relief lol
If you play this backwards, the descent is quite safe & quick as well. ⛑
Well done on getting into the Death Zone, turning around when you did and getting home safe. Congratulations on an all-round superb effort. And nice vid too btw.
So good to finally understand this visually.
Hi Ricky - well done on getting to Camp 3 also! I really struggled in 2011 as got sick with HAPE earlier on which I never recovered from all expedition. I went back in 2012 and reached the summit on the morning of 19 May. Good luck for your return and thanks for the comments!

Takes a brave man or woman to know when to turn around. So glad you were ultimately able to summit, but I am almost more impressed that you were able to turn around.
Brother take me there
Man thanks for making this video. I don't want to risk my life simply for climbing a mountain - watching a video of it is all I would do.
The summit is labeled "half way point." I laughed and was like, nice joke. Then I'm like, oh wait that's right because you have to go back down lol!
Between camp 3 and the summit there’s something like 20 bodies, and down the cliff face beneath the steps is the rainbow valley. Called that due to the different colors of down suits scattered across the valley, lots and lots of corpses: something like 150 on the north side
This is one sensational video. A must see for all that love mountains and the "Mother of all Mountains". Everest!
Hi there and thanks for the message. One of the songs is from Last of the Mohican's actually. Regards, Axe

man congratulations to me you are a hero for getting that far
This route looks less terrifying than going through the icefall on the south side.
Thanks for a great video, very interesting and informative. Congratulations that you reached 8350M.

you can sense your exhilaration at having achieved the 8150m mark and one and the same time your utter crushing disappointment and longing to have gone on to the summit - those 3 steps look very nasty - like sheer rock face covered in ICE - you were FAR from the summit still even though it seems like you were "close" the actual effort required to have made it there would have been tremendous - nice video
Would love to know the name of the song, artist, and composer of the music that begins at 6:15. It musically matches the beauty of your visuals.
Great video. Superb music.. Can you share the link of music used in video?

Lots of permafrost. Most of what you see as dirt is mostly dirty glacier ice covered in dust and gravel. .
One Day I will see you Everest. Thanks for sharing this great video. It made easier to understand. :)
It seems like that from bingeing to Changeste Base Camp I can ride my dirt bike.
Assuming your dirt bike’s engine can get enough oxygen at that altitude.
whats with the weaving side to side....dizzy now. thanks
Hi Steve, thanks for the nice comment!
Hi Nick, I have not read this book but must check it out thanks for the reference!

Not seeing any glaciers, especially early on, just the ravines left by the glaciers! Also, music, please?
This is great. Any chance you can add a few more features, like Mushroon rock or 'green boots cave' etc
Green boots has been moved and he’s on the South Col route....not this one
Inverted T near Norton avalanche chute. Near where Irvine fell.
now am going to nepal in october just crossing to tibet, i have no training in climbing. is it possible to climb in a group up till death point and back, or is it still fatal in extreme weather conditions and altitude sickness.
how much will it cost to make these arrangements
Excellent music choice.
The walk to advanced base camp is long as all hell for the altitude. Wow
This is the route Mallory and Irvine took? I heard the second step was extremely difficult for them, especially without ladders.
Holy Crap I knew it was a long hike just to get to the base but wow that was pretty far. I know I would never survive the climb but this tour was cool. Thanx for posting.
And can you believe that one of the major expedition companies now does this in 32 days?
And I love the inclusion of Lisa Gerard & Hans Zimmer’s “Now We Are Free” as the North Col approaches.
I'm no authority on the topic, but this would seem to be a much safer route if you avoid the Khumbu Icefall. Is that generally true?
the music makes me feel like im actually doing the journey!!
Dumb question. Has anyone went up the south side and down the north side?
The American expedition in 1963 accomplished the first traverse of the mountain, up the west ridge and down the south col route. Tom Hornbein and Willi Unsoeld did it, and the Hornbein Couloir on the north side of the mountain is named after him.
@@starkraving899 Thank you!
Absolutely wonderful
I think I saw Mallory laying off to the side near the end of the video, wow. Was he wearing leather climbing boots? If so, that was definitely him that I saw.
Camp 3 in the dead zone?
Sergeant1990 Nah
Just below. By about 60ish metres. It's pretty extreme height though
North ridge doesn't have a camp 4 if i'm not mistaken. Camp 4 on the southern route is just at 8000m
Chris Whatley south col right...
Kindly find any music by Brian Eno...🎵
Allow the Mohawks and Cherokee have their OWN music film....
What's the furthest you're allowed to drive to? Advanced base camp
"The Half Way Point"...still have to go back down. Incredible...
The nice thing is that at that point, if you happen to have a set of skis, you can make it back down much quicker.
@@gregkosinski2303 With 20-30lbs being about the max you should carry to the actual summit, people don't carry an additional 10lbs of just about anything at that altitude and incline, much less 6' long skis strapped to a backpack. A very small handful of chads have done it though. Hans Kammerlander holds the title currently and that mfer even did it without oxygen which is ludicrous in itself.
Loved it. Just wish the printing was a bit larger at key points but definitely thumbs up and well done.
Sick video! Ive been looking for something this detailed for a while! Thanks!
I may take a week's vacation and give it a go!
Hi Laksman, The route with the highest probability of success is the traditional route from the South Side. I made a 3d flythough of that route also which you can see on my video channel. I am on facebook so you can find me there also :)
Hi Saeed17 - I have tried a few times to change the settings but cannot work out how to do it in TH-cam. If you can tell me how to change the settings I would gladly do it.
Hi very nice video. The music fits. What is the name of the music at 1.30?
What is the final 3 minutes of music after Promentory?
Why has no one taken the ridgeline from the back, all the way up the north side ? It appears as if it's one easy straight shot.
Is it "easier" to do when there is less snow? Just wondering ...
Just WOW!! This is FANTASTIC!! Yes, I had to shout that. I have been absorbing everything Everest for days now and have not gotten a real feel for what these climbers go through to climb (and camp) until watching this video!! Now I can go back and make heads and tails of what they're talking about with references to the different areas, parts, difficulties, altitudes, etc. and understand much, much better. Thanks so very much for this. Any way to do the same video but slow it down some? Especially from camp 4 to the Summit? Also, everyone mentions the heights and hours it takes to climb them, but never in terms of miles. I'd love to know the difference of miles between given points, since sometimes climbers are walking across and not up, its difficult to translate just from feet heights. Again, thanks ~ this is going to make watching these other adventures much, much more interesting!!
I liked the video a lot! I didn't see any debris from past expeditions?
Love the Last of the Mohicans music.
I like these videos a lot. Didn't care for the perspective swaying back and forth in this one, though.
Hi, this was the first ever three d fly through I made, since then I have learnt and refined the process and don't move the camera around so much, thanks for your feedback anyway.
Thanks for making these! Keep them coming!
If it is like this i can climb it in 12 hours, if i am wrong, can any one tell me
Also, let's not take away anything from anyone who climbs Everst! great video and congrats!
I tried climbing Everest from the north side but got to the 3rd step but I got out because I was exhausted and cold I was so close to the top .. I try again but this time from the south side
That’s crazy. But very smart choice you obviously listened to your body being that close and turning back. Did you manage to summit on your next attempt?
Porqué la cara norte tiene menos nieve?
Increíble, ver toda la subida al Everest desde el lado norte sin nieve.
