Summiting Annapurna is no easy feat, and with no oxygen no less ! Congratulations, you should be proud of yourself. And best of luck for your future 8 000ers, God willing no bad weather or bad surprise on them
Thank you so much! Yes it was not easy, but the harder the challenge the bigger the joy! Unfortunately I was not so lucky on my Everest attempt just a week ago! I had to admit defeat and turn around! But I am alive and well!
@@norrdinenouar Why? Because of the extra 800m elevation without oxygen? Congratulations on your annapurna achievement without O2. Incredible. Am curious, i suppose you have a good V02 max? what is it? 70's?
I don't know how I missed this video. Annapurna 1 is strikingly beautiful, when not hidden by the clouds. Those are some hike-ups, that you have to do. When you were dangling from a rope filming, I was yelling, put down the camera! Gosh was that the only place for a tent, by a crevasse. Pretty sure I wouldn't get any sleep there. It's amazing all of the things you go through to get up there. Always nice to find a friend or two also. Stay safe & keep on keeping on! God bless!
Haha, you missed it? It is actually my most clicked video so far! You know, when I was hanging in this wall I thought, "man I should record more of this stuff". So I took the camera shot. Camp3 is very small and narrow and has not a lot of space and I felt "okish" with the location.
Brave man. I admire you. I trekked the Himalayas 4 times and gained a maximum altitude of 5,500 mts. I was 60 yrs of age when I did this and Nepal changed my life. I have traveled extensively around the world but I think Nepal was my favorite. I did Khumbu and the Annapurnas. I loved watching this. Be Safe. From Australia.
So glad your safe after the Everest climb. Got to say me an the kids have been watching your adventures this year and after a month we needed to know you where safe. We know you will return and kick butt. Glad you made wise choices. We love your amazing Annapurna summit. You are a super hero for us in Saskatchewan Canada. Thank you Norrdine.
Hey Chris! Thank you so much for your kind words and your excitement! Happy to hear that you and your kids enjoy the videos and the style! You guys can be 100% sure, I will train harder than ever and prepare myself better than ever! Ill will come back! Stronger than ever! Greetings back to Saskatchewan Canada! Ill keep you guys excited with more 8000er climbs in an even better style in the upcoming years!
Wow! Ich habe die letzten Monate damit verbracht alles Mögliche über Annapurna I herauszufinden, ich dachte ich hätte alle Videos gesehen, alle Beiträge gelesen - aber am Wichtigsten: Ich dachte ich es gäbe nur ein einziges Summit Video von Annapurna I auf RUclips. Jetzt bin ich über deinen Everest Attempt auf den Kanal gestoßen und habe dein Lhotse Video zu Ende geschaut - auf einmal wird mir dieses Video per Autoplay reingedrückt und ich bin komplett geflashed. Danke, dass du mit uns deine Expeditionen teilst und noch dazu wie so ein sympathisches Kerlchen rüber kommst.
Dang. I'm impressed. Congratulations a lot. I'm glad I stumbled over your channel. Thanks for a great video. It was a joy to watch. And thanks for letting us join your Annapurna climb.🙌
Thx so much! Climbing Annapurna was a joy! She is simply beautiful! Glad you enjoyed and appreciate it! I will try to to keep more good mountain content coming!
So beautiful-the determination, the commentary, the human connections. I read your updates on the everest climb, great job making a smart choice even in the heat of the moment! Thanks for sharing the breathtaking experiences. Take care bro❤
Thank you so much! You are right I really found my passion and it is actually a huge luck and I feel very blessed, that I stumbled mountaineering by accident! I love what I do and I will continue to take you with me on my journey!
Simply an awesome achievement Norr and huge congratulations to your successful summit of Annapurna 1. Feakin' amazing!! Hadn't heard for a while from you and was so worried about your next push for Everest.. Stay safe my friend.
Norrdine, what you've achieved in summiting Annapurna 1 solo, without oxygen is a far far greater achievement than Everest. You have joined an elite group and are the true definition of a mountaineer my friend on a much harder technical climb. As for Everest, (in my mind), well it's merely become a mountain tourist destination which I hate. If I had the money, I'm sure that I could pay someone to drag my sad arse up to the summit so that I could boast about it and get a bunch of internet likes. Congrats again and much love and respect from my crew here in Australia. You are inspirational to us all mate. PS. And please don't view Everest as a defeat or loss. Any loss is merely a learning curve. Take care, be safe and looking forward to hearing about your future adventures. N.
@@proosee yeah that is the main problem of Annapurna I. To be honest with you I was very lucky... Just 40 minutes after I went through the high avalanche risk couloir between C2 and C3 an avalanche came through the couloir with me only being a few meters above it. Every day hatd at least 2 or 3 avalanches in that couloir which kinda made it a game of russian roulette.
@@norrdinenouar it must be scary when you are there, but... there is something soothing about the fact that there are places on Earth where humans don't have the final word.
Atta boy!!!! Thank you for sharing what many long to do like myself but are not able. You should be very proud of yourself! Next mountain? Can't wait to watch. Be safe
Thank you! It takes a lot of hard work and discipline to reach a goal like this! Next mountain? I just got defeated by Everest, you will see the video soon!
Thank you for the video. Most trekkers trek to Annapurna Base Camp Sout Face. I would like to see a video story about the approach to north side base camp. Can you put that together. It is so full of history with Terray, Lachinel, Rebuffat, Herzog and others. There was a film made of that epic trip. It has never been translated into English. I would love to see that as well. Thank you
The Annapurna Massif is just amazing and breath taking! When I hiked around it I couldnt even imagine how I would be able to summit its highest peak! o.O
I like a nice clean level tent for my sanity. Priceless, there are no HOA's on the mountain to regulate your neighbor! Great job Norrdine and sense of humor will pull you through!
Excellent video bro 👏👏👏 well done continue with these kind of vlogs ...this is something very different and your channel will blow up soon. Miss you !!! I am happy to see you're as strong as I met you in Istanbul 😊
When I see such a beautiful view I feeling even more thanks fully for the beauty of mother Natur... But the human keep going destroy it. Thank you for showing us,who cant stay there and see this beauty with your eyes
@@norrdinenouar I'm mostly interested in what you've learned from this expedition. Would you change anything. Where did you deviate from your plans? What worked well and what didn't in terms of logistics, equipment, acclimatization and training. I'm also interested in how you made the arrangement to climb unsupported but I'm not sure if this is a grey area that you can't talk about.
Good stuff mate, like seeing other climbers tent set up and tricks. Haven’t come across the bottle and boot trick, only the bottle and sleeping bag trick. Will be useful later on.
@@norrdinenouar idk if you are on IG or tiktok, might be worth to post short clicks there to reach to a wider audience. Most people who watched this video probably searched for it or searched for something similar. Ig and tiktok might recommend your clips randomly.
I don’t think that Buldak noodles are a good choice in a place like that. Or anything spicy 11:35 Was that a poop 💩? Very beautiful view and video. Greetings from Poland!
Awesome video, and nice explaining! And great to see you with Flor :) Was that Allie Pepper on the summit in the end? The views are just fantastic, what a beautiful and bizarre landscape. How does that work with your tents - do you always carry it with you from camp to camp or are they "pre-installed" in the upper camps? How much does all your equipment weigh when you start to go up a mountain? It looks like much, with all the food, gear and gas etc. And last question: I know you climb without O2. But do have a bottle with you for emergencies?
Hey! Yes it was Allie Pepper and her Sherpas at the end on the summit. In this case I had my tent with me and carried it up. I carried two tents at once to C2 and let the C2 installed there. I carried another tent up to C3 and C4. If you have to do several rotations you can manage a nice material carry cycle. In this case everything went super fast and I was already completeley geared up on my 2nd rotation. Luckily I had done my pre acclimatization at the Thorong La Pass, so my body was ready to summit on the 2nd rotation, which is not a given. Emergency bottle: I had one last year on Lhotse and took it to Camp 4 (just in case, so I dont die at night), but I would never carry an emergency bottle to the summit. It would be way to heavy! As an experienced mountaineer you need to understand your body and know, when to turn around.... as I just had to admit on Everest, when I tried to summit.
Could you give me a short (ofc only if you want) a list of your gear that you have? My dream since I‘m a little boy was to climb one of these mountains but I‘ve never found a competent list, also, could you say me the weight of it? If I would knew it I could wear the weight all day and prepare my body for the extra kilos.
Without sherpa support? You might of mentioned or wrote about this but I havent seen it. What does without sherpa support mean? Food alone would weigh way too much from when you left say the village. What supplies are you gathering and how as you make your ascent. Another example would be gas used for melting snow etc.
Isn't a MSR Whisperlite more efficient and reliable for melting snow? Also: How do you not freeze to death with only a foam mat for sleeping? I thought you need to pair it with an inflatable because otherwise the r-value is not sufficient.
Hello, I got a question for you:) If it took you 13 hours from camp 4 to the summit, does it mean you walked 26 hours nonstop to go up and come down to camp 4 again?😮
A climber is never safe anywhere on Annapurna 1. It has a unique microclimate which produces sudden changes in weather. Besides its constant avalanches and winds that can send the climber off their feet, huge crevasses high up on the mountain can get concealed by heavy snow, making it impossible to descend.
Exactly what Mila Brearey says! One problem is the big "summit sickle" a lot of ice blocks and seracs collapse from it down to the glacier below, causing further avalanches that can sometimes even reach camp 2. The way up to C3 you have to move through a coloir, which concentrates a lot of avalances from an above positioned serac. There are at least 2 avalanches per day through this coloir and you have to cross it in order to get to camp 3. Its kinda a gamble. And yes, the weather as Mila mentioned is very specific. The Everest region is very dry during March, April, May, but Annapurna almost gets snow every day, since the micro climate builds big humid clouds every day.
With all this in information in mind, I can not and do not believe you just climb up this hoping for the best. Surely there is something you do to decrease the chances of dying on the climb. Or is it pure luck?
Omg u brought Buldak 2x spicy noodles with you 😂 These are so super spicy, but you badass just eat them casually while summiting the highest mountains on earth 😂 Legend ✨🙌
I just realized that your Annapurna climb was over 2 months ago and that your Everest Climb videos have not been uploaded. Please tell me that you're OK and that you made it.
Exactly, sorry I had no connection. Everest was going good for quite a while, but yea as you read I got sick and in the end I was not strong enough on summit day. I turned around pretty quickly because I realized I would end up as another frozen boddy up there if I continue to push to the summit! Ill live to fight another day!
Hi, im new to your channel, may I ask why you chose not to use oxygen? The technology to ease the challenges of the dangerously thin air does exist so im curious as to why climbers wouldnt use it. Is it a weight thing? It seems to be an incredibly personal decision from person to person, so i apologize if i have offended. I also apologize if you mention this during the video and i missed it.
Hey! I am from Germany! You know 13 hours is not so much for a mountaineer, I think it is one of the basic mountaineering skills, that you are able to go for 24hours straight if necessary. But of course I have to admit. Going 13 hours to 8091m is extremely exhausting"
My dad did base camp aged 73 it was the highlight of his life. I love watching 🏔️ videos because it reminds me of him and how much he enjoyed his time on the 🏔️

Please tell me that you're OK and that you made it.
He is ok. Had to turn around above 8000 metres because of an infection. Would not have made it otherwise. Wise decision! He'll try again.
Exactly, sorry I had no connection. Everest was going good for quite a while, but yea as you read I got sick and in the end I was not strong enough on summit day. I turned around pretty quickly because I realized I would end up as another frozen boddy up there if I continue to push to the summit! Ill live to fight another day!
16:30 Who is she?
Man you could really tell how much the lack of oxygen hits by the summit. He is noticeably slower.
Hi, im new to your channel, may I ask why you chose not to use oxygen? The technology to ease the challenges of the dangerously thin air does exist so im curious as to why climbers wouldnt use it. Is it a weight thing? It seems to be an incredibly personal decision from person to person, so i apologize if i have offended. I also apologize if you mention this during the video and i missed it.
Because it's harder.
Bad ass....As it should be done!! chapeau!!!
:D Thank you so much! It was a lot of hard work and I also was a bit lucky with the conditions!
That almost looks safe
We're those a couple of huge seracs above C3?
yep, and parts of it collapsed and fell down to the coloir causing an avalanche
Congratulations.
tyvm!
Mad respect!!!
What an achievement!
Thank you! It took hard work, dedication and discipline! It is nice, when these things pay off!
the word you are looking for at 8:55 is squint!
aaaah! thx
@@norrdinenouar np loved the video! so amazing
Brilliant! 👍
Thx Gerard! Thank you for cheering for me!
Will you try k-2?
For sure! As soon as I can afford it!
13 hours to reach the summit, holy smokes. Nice one 👍 Where do you hail from sir?
Hey! I am from Germany! You know 13 hours is not so much for a mountaineer, I think it is one of the basic mountaineering skills, that you are able to go for 24hours straight if necessary. But of course I have to admit. Going 13 hours to 8091m is extremely exhausting"

Yes, for sure. Rest up bro. How much water and food do you bring on a summit push like that?
Congratulations
Thx so much!
6:55 8000m에서 핵불닭이라니 진짜 이사람들은 타고났구나....!
